33-14 is a convincing win, wouldn't you say? They secure the "Bye" and home-field advantage for the divisional playoff game...
Let's see, what else was interesting...?
Favre tossed two interceptions. I'm used to that sort of thing from him, but I was getting used to him not doing it lately.
Does the number 61,405 mean anything to you?
It's the new all-time passing yardage record for a quarterback.
Time to get me a Brett Favre jersey. Let me tell you something: being a Packer fan before the Brett Favre era was a discouraging experience. And one big reason good things are happening for him now is that Favre wouldn't put this as succinctly as the Packers.com writer:
One undeniable and invaluable factor in the offense's prowess that has also helped Favre close quickly on Marino's yardage record is his receivers' yards after the catch.
Approximately 52 percent of Favre's 3,678 passing yards this season have come after the catch, as the Packers have made big plays both on short routes that turn into long runs and long throws that become huge gains when the receiver gets behind the entire defense.
He goes on and on about the help he's getting. And that just encourages those guys to go out and do more.
