Shouldn't the smart play be done by the veterans, and not the younger players(like Poppinga and Bigby, who played great, which surprised me)?
Bail out Mr. Hall of fame? I don't get that. Shouldn't he be playing the role of Superman and NOT Lois lane? Hmmm....

Where is the mention in this thread or any other of the huge drop by Martin that was a beautifully placed ball by Mr. HOF? Just one of many plays throughout the game that we didn't get it done on.
Wait, that wouldn't accomplish the stance that the game, the throwing through the defenders is all on #4.
Point is, while I agree that Favre errored in the placement of the throw or the decision to check down, the game was not lost on that play alone. But continuing to lay the blame of the loss on a few, it appears that it is nothing more than fanning the flames to continue a *** for tat argument that has now carried over into a number of threads. This coming from the biggest proponent of the repetitive threads knocking the GM; that there is, how do you say it, oh yeah.. CUTE.
Again, the game was lost by a collective team effort, but hence buying into that notion doesn't stir the pot like pointing a finger at a couple of players.
