Of course, what no one ever talks about is that No. 1 ("He did what??") was a signature terrible throw by Favre that by rights should have been intercepted. Had Freeman not made that fluky catch, it would have been yet another Favre interception and Sherman would have been the goat yet again.

All that talk by the commentators about Favre and Freeman "getting off" together sounds just weird nowadays. 😍

It was on the inside shoulder of the defender -- not even between him and Freeman -- and he actually had a really good shot at it. While the play was a display of amazing awareness by Freeman, it was also a wretched throw by Favre and a surprisingly inept reaction by the defender.

OK did I watch a completely different video? The one I watched had the WRs ranked:
1) Don Hutson (cold hard football facts said "you can have Jerry Rice, I'll take Don Hutson")
2) Sterling Sharpe
3) James Lofton
4) Donald Driver
5) Antonio Freeman
