[QUOTE="Bruce, post: 17577, member: 196"] by Jeff Fedotin, Packers.com Donald Driver likely will have a bruise after trying to haul in a Brett Favre pass with his chest instead of his hands on Thursday morning. "He tried to kill me," he said. "I was trying to figure out how to catch it." Favre's 9-of-10, 91-yard passing performance against the San Diego Chargers may have been the sign of things to come. He has looked crisp during training camp -- even by his Pro Bowl standards. [img]http://images.packers.com/images/action/050818favre_132.jpg[/img] "He's been very sharp -- great decision making, accuracy, arm, everything," Sherman said. Favre shredded the defense during 7-on-7 and 9-on-7 drills. He hit Robert Ferguson, Javon Walker and Ben Steele for touchdowns. The Walker pass traveled 40 yards while Favre placed the ball between linebacker Hannibal Navies and safety Earl Little to reach Steele. "He's not afraid to rifle it in there - that's for sure," Steele said. "He fired one in there the other day that I kind of caught on the side of his helmet. He put it on me pretty quick." An observer can tell Favre's increasing age by the number of grey hairs on his head but not by his passes, which whip off his hands like they did 10 years ago. "He's been tremendous," Driver said.
