“That’s why you get Brett Favre on your football team”

[@Hunter-qu6hk]

Anybody notice Farve charging downfield to block at 6:20? What a legend he wanted to win bad

[@dangallagher568]

Have you ever seen a quarterback of ANY age run forty yards to make a downfield block??

[@briancarbs4172]

Glad someone else saw that!

[@leehall239]

Wow didn't see that thanks for noticing what an effing legend he was

[@THRMLVZN]

Oh man thank you for this! I was at this game, I was 10 years old and had probably been to about 6 games and had never seen the vikings lose. I remember watching the stadium start to empty towards the middle/end of the 4th qtr and I just remember holding onto hope that we would somehow pull through. And of course that final play happened and I was so blown away. Fast forward 7 years, we're watching the vikings play the saints in the playoffs, all hope looks lost. My friends start grabbing their jackets and say "I guess we're jags fans now." And I sat there and said "I saw Brett Favre do this in 09, this isn't over"...4 plays later, Keenum drops back, Diggs breaks a route, I yelled "There it is!", Keenum releases and rest is history. As much as this team can break my fucking heart they have brought me some of my favorite memories and I couldn't be happier with the team I was born into supported. We may not have a championship but we have some of the most entertaining moments in the history of the NFL. Skol vikes.

[@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants]

I bet you can give us a new story after the Bills Vikes game.

The only problem with this video is not having paul allens call on the final td. Great game tho!

Welcome to Minneapolis!

[@bradpoole238]

Yes that is one of the greatest reactions to an unbelievable end. Makes me reminisce to the nfc championship that was hyped up until big dick nick fucked their little butts until the room stank.

This Vikings team was legit. Too bad bountygate happened to them. They should've been in SB44

Another great highlight video! Thank you!

I forgot how much fun Percy was to watch run!!!

[@60BloodyChamp60]

:34 is the play where everybody was like O shit...Favre can still go deep. It was soon forgotten because of the Miracle Pass but that was the play that first scared everybody because he hadn’t gone deep since before he got hurt in 2008.

As a packers fan I can only watch favre 2009 highlights because we got the last laugh and the ring the next season good memories

[@60BloodyChamp60]

@@ericsigersmith2831 not really...Favre has since had his jersey retired and now wears a gold jacket. Meanwhile Rodgers hears footsteps in an era where you’re not allowed to hit quarterbacks and costs his team the NFCCG.

Yeah but that throw tho, the ball had to get there first.

Forgot about Glenn coffee on the 49ers. I believe he left the NFL to join the army

You is correct.

Was that you?

[@saryphx]

To this day, I STILL can't believe he got both feet in lol!

[@JahNuhThunDeeTheOneAndOnly]

8:12 Had Dre Bly caught that, it would have been a pick 6 the other way and we would see no miracle-people forget that this Brett Favre performance came against a young, emerging 49ers defense full of talent all over the front 7. Regardless, I have to admit that Favre throw to Greg Lewis was still phenomenal to see.

[@shermanmi]

Brett Favre vs. Shaun Hill! Woo!

[@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants]

Hill looked so good on his 2nd td pass.He instantly knew what he wanted to do.

[@feistybastard]

Has Favre ever thrown a better ball?

[@dangallagher568]

Has anyone?

[@Ant18_00]

Their are a plethora of intriguing, primetime teams I enjoy to watch from like: The Mannings' in their prime, Big Ben, and Aaron Rodgers!

i loved that fox presentation but wtf is up with the mouse clicking noise every time a team scored? idk if it was there originally because I never noticed but it's every time

It was there originally.

I feel like this was payback for Steve Young's run against us in 1988.

By this time the Niners were not the team of the 80's or maybe the 90's

[@quietcorner293]

@@michaelleroy9281 Ya of course, but I am referring to two great plays and both were Vikings vs Niners. That was good coverage by the Niners' secondary. Favre n Lewis just made an incredible play, like Steve Young did in '88.

[@achilles9448]

I remember this game and I really thought the four daughters had a good chance to win but Brett favre and the Minnesota Vikings played amazing especially at the end and even though I remember it I shut my TV after they want cuz I knew that the rest of the day people were going to talk about this and I hated it so much but I respected the Vikings and their fans and they played a great game and they deserve to win this one.... I know this sounds strange but just a couple years ago back in 2019 the San Francisco 49ers play the Vikings in the division Iran and ended up winning.. now at the 49er fan of course I wanted to win but it felt good because I still remember this game even though it was 10 years ago prior to the 2019 the season...lol

Did not know bruce was still playing at that time

[@mr.gentlezombie8709]

He really likes to say "everybody out."

[@daltoninman6972]

It's a shame to think if farve wouldn't have folded under pressure he woulda had a ring in Minnesota

[@neilshaw7702]

He didn't fold.under pressure, he was targeted by a multitude of illegal hits by the cheating Saints as Bountygate was later proven. Why the officials turned a blind eye to it we can only come to our own conclusions. But the NFL was never the same for me after that season as it appears that the NFL likes a fairytale story ending

[@robertschmidt4239]

Watching this game made me think this team actually has an chance at winning the Super Bowl

2009 season, Favre last chance at glory. As usual it ended with a game ending interception

[@vbadger1056]

Kyle Adrien that loss wasn't on favre he three a bad pass but he wasn't the reason the viks lost to the saints

[@justjsse8917]

Favre carried then and got little protection . At age 39 he was fucking dominating, imagine if bounty bowl wasnt going in and he had decent protection.

[@theoriginalshew]

It's weird hearing taunting penalties in old games

[@ahighhorseman]

How did the Vikings go from getting stopped on 4th and 5 with two minutes remaining, and having the ball again with 1:39 remaining?

NFL needs to disassociate with anything Farve until he pays back the state of Mississippi

[@jstape740]

How is the fuck does that big ass #91 block that FG. Swesr from that angle it looks like nobody block him and he just takes a few steps and puts his arms up. Somebody had to off missed their assignment. Nornally when a FG is blocked its From pressure from the outside EDIT: holy shit! After watching it in slow motion it appears as if the guy blocking him just lets him get by on purpose! Idk how else to explain that. He doesn't even move after the ball is hiked. There is actually 2 guys that never move from the set posistion. I wonder if there was a communication breakdown with the snap count
