I think the Vikings have the best roster in the league, but they may want to sit down Favre for a week and let his body heal as well as getting things squared out for the playoffs.

Childress tried to take Favre out in third quarter

Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on December 21, 2009 12:21 AM ET

As we prepare to head home after this long football Sunday, we'll leave you with one aftershock from Minnesota's embarrassing blowout loss to the Panthers.

Vikings coach Brad Childress attempted to take Brett Favre out of Sunday's game in the third quarter. When the Vikings were leading 7-6. Huh?

As anyone who watched the game knows, Favre stayed in throughout. And according to the Vikings beat writers, Favre was "not a happy camper" when he spoke about the development.

Childress did appear to successfully bench two other veterans: left tackle Bryant McKinnie and cornerback Antoine Winfield.

We have a feeling our bossman Mr. Florio will have a few thoughts on this development in the morning.

I'm done with PFT. I don't know how accurate that article is, and it very well be accurate.. But I will refuse to believe anything posted on that horseshit site, and I'll never visit it again.

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

Formo, it was reported by a Vikings beat writer, not PFT.

Just watched the Favre presser, and he talked about it. Sounded like him and Chilly talked it out and Favre didn't want to sit when the Vikes were up in the 3rd quarter.

Now, if Chilly were smart and used some tact, he could have explained that he wanted to give Brett a breather for a play or two during the next few drives and give the Panthers a different look at QB.. I'm 100% positive Favre wouldn't have had a problem.

Anyway, Favre's smart.. he knows he gives this team the best chance to win, and he's not about to sit out when his team is up in the 3rd quarter.

Poor move by Chilly.

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

7-6 is not the time to take out your starting QB. People want to talk about ego on this forum an awful a lot, that was quite the ego like move Childress attempted to make. You only take your starters out when you feel the game is in hand or someone is hurt.

I said before, if any good came of Favre playing for the Vikings, it's Childress is there for awhile now.

A Vikings loss does not help the Packers at this point.

Favre is failing them big time right now. Peterson played amazing again last night, giving them a great running game. The Vikings defense played inspired football practically shutting down the Panther running game and their young quarterback all night. I put this one on Favre. Yea there were drops all night but hey, Brett has to overcome that.

Really? Because it put a smile on my face and I don't care about what helps the Packers at this point. If the Packers can't help themselves, they don't deserve to be in the playoffs.

So, it might not have helped the Packers. It helped me. 🙂 BIG 🙂

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE
