Just a Reminder about The Legend


Wasn't much of a "sees the whole field" kinda guy. I was at this game. Overtime. Improbable trip to the Super Bowl on the line. Chance for Favre to cement his legacy and leave the game on top. This is the moment all of that unraveled.

When I saw this image the day after the painful loss, I threw up in my mouth a little. That's Grant running free in the right flat. Who knows how long he would have run. Jennings deep left with about four yards of separation from the corner, and Donald Lee in the center of the field with the linebacker doing an "Oh crap!" trying to get up to speed.

Where did the Legend go with the ball? Yep. The tightly covered Driver, FTL. Legend indeed.
