Leave it to a 40 year old "washed up" QB to be the first Vikings QB to have 300 yds in the last 63 games.

hmmm! where are all the negatives at now?

un real way to end that game I have not seen a viking QB do that in a long long long time

How easy you forget those missed interceptions and why did it take him the whole game to figure out he has has legs and can use them. That interception that happened didnt even look like a viking had a play on it.

You asked for them grin

Give us another of those wins next week and life is perfect.

Give us these wins up to week 6, then life is perfect winkgrin

If we can break week six, I think the Viking curse is lifted grin or maybe waiting for the remainder of the season whistle

Go Vikes and Favre! smile

ok, VERY FEW high profile QB's run full speed down field after a 20yd pass and throw a full on block to a linebacker like BF just did!

That was great!

Yeah but he just came back for the money, drama, and to burn the Packers he doesn't have fun or enjoy the game!

Skisim Smisim.... grin

Unbelievable throw and catch. I think Lewis deserves a chance to play after that catch. Great throw by Farve and a pretty good game by him. Unfortunately, the Vikes are still not putting teams away...had a chance to bury the niners and let them hang around. I have been skeptical about how good people think they are this year. I still believe they are hamstrung by unimaginative play calling and questionable coaching(childress, not Frazier). still to predictable. not enough play action on 1st or 2nd downs. trying to run wide on a good defense, etc. While the niners are a pretty solid team, Hill is by no means a top nfl qb....and they played with their 3rd string rb... and it takes a miraculous play to win the game at home. if the vikes get through the 1st half of the season at 6-2 or 7-1...then I may start to believe they can get deep into the playoffs and maybe the sb...in spite of Childress...

I was on the road heading home from the lake and caught the last few minutes on the clock. It wasn't just the TD throw/catch, but the 80-yard no-hope drive with no timeouts that was signature Favre.

Last year w/any of the Vikes' QBs it would have been 80 yards and no time outs = hopeless. One man can make a difference if he's the right man.

And I have to admit, while I'm tooling down the highway in the rain listening to time run out on the Vikes and hoping the Pack and Vikes would be tied at 2-1 at the end of the day, there was still a little bright spot in the back of my mind that wished Favre well, even if he is now playing for the enemy.

You guys were lucky to get him. You should be thankful.

Thanks for the video link, LMIT. Looked like old times there for a minute until all the purple ruined it! gringrin

It's a very young 3-0, but it feels pretty darned good, doesn't it? winkwink

I'm, uh, not feeling that good about next week's matchup. fear.gifleaving.gif

WOW, Unbelievable!!!!

Favre and recievers stil have work to do. This Vikes team with Favre leading is very exciting to watch. I havent seen so much confiendence in our offense in a very long time.

I am shickled tit-less! Today showed why we went out and got Brett Favre. No other QB on our roster could have come close to his performance.

However, I hope we don't often have to ride the old horse as hard as we did today. Favre took a beating, and worked the heck out of that old arm. Its nice to confirm that we have the capability, but now I'd much prefer to ride the young legs of our backs whenever possible. Save the Favre magic for special occasions.

I haven't seen a more accurate post on here. WOW. Someone who understands the game. HOW Favre led them down from the 20 with no TO ,,, is something else. anyone notice on the spike before the "the play" how Favre made sure every one was lined up right?? Otherwise it's a 10sec run off, and likely buzz kill, game over,,, and then hurried up to center and spiked the ball?? Also -- the pump fake about 1 sec into the "the play" is not noticed by many,, but the def will react, and might have been the differnce in inches from the safety/corner getting a hand on the ball. Also-- as many have said, this is not FAvre's first rodeo,, the ball was lazered to the back end of the endzone,, where it hardest to defend, and catch. But like the old silver fox says, "you got sling it to have chance"

Defintely a game that Favre took the team on his shoulders and led them to victory. A LONG drive with no timeouts, I agree with Steve Foss about if it were last year if would have been hopeless!!

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
