  • Favre’s big pass helps Vikes edge Ravens (AP)

    Minnesota Vikings' Adrian Peterson, top, and the Vikings bench watch Baltimore Ravens' Ray Rice(notes) run for a 33-yard touchdown during the fourth quarter of an NFL football game Sunday, Oct. 18, 2009, in Minneapolis. Minnesota won 33-31.

    As great as Brett Favre was Sunday, the Minnesota Vikings quarterback was pretty sure he wasn't good enough. So sure that the Vikings were headed to their first defeat of the season, Favre couldn't even bear to watch as Baltimore kicker Steve Hauschka lined up for a 44-yard field goal with 2 seconds to play.
