Favre's elbow had to be nagging the hell out of him. He missed a few easy throws to wide open guys late.
That offense was horrid early - false starts - illegal formations - two lost fumbles on snaps. Couldn't pick up a blitz to save their life. Couldn't get a first down to save their life.
When Moss learns the offense - and Rice gets healthy and comes back - Favre gets over his elbow - this team will come on strong. Problem is that their schedule is so brutal - they might be 3-6 by the time all that happens.
Abandon this West Coast offense garbage - put Favre in shotgun almost every play - and run the spread like they did in Minny in '98 and in New England from '07 till last week. Percy Harvin will put up Wes Welker like catch totals - and way better stats than Wes did because he's better with the ball in his hands and is a ton faster. Adrian Peterson will avg 8 yards a friggen carry running from the spread in a dome.
