Favre's First Start - Browns vs. Vikings (Week 1, 2009) Classic Highlights

the NFL on Fox presents of Minnesota Vikings led by Brett Favre taking on the Cleveland Brown and immediately a short gift trying to surprise Cleveland but alertly able to grab ahold of it just the third start where the number one pick out of Notre Dame two years ago has worked his way to the number two receiver in their offense behind the word and on first down Quinn under pressure lets it fly by royal the tight end down to the 22 we talked about that rush defensa stingy as it come free night against this great Minnesota defense 37-yard field goal try and it is good from Phil Dawson well well well we have a thing or two to talk about today thirty nine-year-old and Brett fired from kiln Mississippi drafted in the second round in 1991 by Atlanta and has started as of today 270 consecutive games in the NFL which ties Jim Marshall for the all-time record breath fires first I was a Minnesota Viking lays it off - Chester Taylor what an impressive start for the Cleveland defense right here this is why Brett Favre came back you can agree not agree thinks he should have retired but you can't dispute the fact this guy loves the game you can't get this anyplace else down throw for looking around to us out of the pocket down he go set them down 14 Peterson breaks it to the outside cuts it back to the inside [Applause] that's percy harvin his first carry any NFL three and now it's Ryan long well from 21 yards away and that ties a game at three burden sets with furry in motion and Down Goes Quinn into the arms of Kevin Williams now sass didn't punch from his own endzone Reynaud returned to punt on the preseason for a touchdown against Dallas slips one tackle breaks it back to the inside all the way down to the Cleveland 24 they could to Harvin and this is Adrian Peterson inside the five gallon to the thorns hi he Carrie there on first and goal go out for Peterson very close to the goal line still no signal Brett Favre's giving one the officials confirm that [Applause] when to throw again on first down as anion Braylon edwards and flag comes down it's ruled a touchdown will this be against Cedric Griffin right there you can see he's clearly out of bound the receiver did catch the ball however he did not reestablish back in bounds with two feet prior to making the catch therefore the play is incomplete [Applause] we'll be spotted at the 6 yard line here it is again twin split water threads what a tackle our play made then by big number 91 red with 2 or 33 on the goal line so now Phil Dawson for the point afternoon and it is good is almost beyond belief press the cutter did you just throw me in front of the bus well I did not on both lists he was re I dragged you down with me let's put it that way Briggs on the 33 to the 30 the 30 the 20 texts and in the first quarter he carried it seven times for 24 yards in the second quarter two carries for one yard and obviously some dehydration issues and this is the wookie Percy Harvin he bounces it to the outside across the 40 back to the inside I'm farm works out of the shotgun and he hands it to Harmon PLAs the turn in the corner breaks one tackle then runs right through Brandon McDonald to throw on first and 15 and he's looking for rice he makes the catch none could not get two feet inbounds play clock down to five for telling everybody look at the play design for Shenko and he just does get tripped up so that signal from far towards and interference Peterson his time is into the end zone touchdown Minnesota check in here he said it could be a weak side run just got it off play clock down to one and that's Jamal Lewis first-time full-time game 70 snaps it's going to take its toll poor decision air you could see it from a time and left his hand [Applause] there goes farm again of the quarterback Lawson eight-second down in 18 in Flores fires to a wide-open Percy Harvin and he has the first down tenth play of the drive and this is Adrian Peterson into the open fee Wow look at breaks a tackle down to the 14 yard line or receiver set fire pot Harvin extends touchdown the first touchdown in the career of Percy Harvin and he will never forget it because it's thrown by the Hall of Famer Bret Favre was the first one to get down there and give him a big hug puts a lot of pressure on his shoulders now because this is where typically a turnover can happen moffat collapsing around Quinn and he somehow escapes the trouble and as the ghosts that throw it he fumbles the football it looked like he covered it up or did he minnesota saying it has a ball [Applause] on Minnesota's ball we'll see if it is here in another 20 seconds or if it changes possessions like the Browns are conceding it will change hands because many of their players on their way to the sidelines it is Minnesota football fourth is just the 17th guide ever try to play quarterback Peterson the end of the second day or neither last year boy lost his footing and then a sackful 37-yard field goal cry for and along well Peterson 91 rushing yards here in the second half [Music] [Applause] and in that total breaking into the open field shuttling run shoves away and blasts his way out of the end zone a spectacular run by the most spectacular runner in the NFL Adrian Peterson Wow that this guy is special and and the great Jim Brown we just talked about when you see a guy like this cranked off a 64-yard touchdown run that that leads to it the great Jim Brown and and taking nothing away from Adrian Peterson here this is a phenomenal run speed acceleration now strength watch this he's just going to push himself right by Eric Wright right by making his way into the end zone but like we also said now this is what's going to drive Eric Mangini nine Peterson in that same class Dan goes Quinn and certainly for me was so unbelievably different in the man I spoke to there's a tax made by Royal does he get in the end zone yes for the first time since the fourth quarter of week ten last season in Buffalo the Cleveland Browns offense has scored a touchdown on this opening weekend of the 2009 NFL season a winning debut for Brett Favre so for Brian Billick and Kristy thompson Tom Brennaman so long let's go to Curt Menefee in Los Angeles

I’m not gonna watch.

But Im gonna assume this is the one where AP stiff-arms the guy on the sideline and breaks it for like a 50 yarder

Brad Childress with the opening onside kick. Lol.

[u/[deleted]]

Do you take requests?

If so, could you do Week 4 of this season. MNF vs. GB?
If not, keep it up! Love these.

After Favre's TD pass @ 6:53 you see the ref reach his hand out to congratulate Favre & slaps his ass. ha

[u/bags2]

I was at that game. I'll never forget Favre to Harvin for both of their first TD's as Vikings and Peterson manhandling that DB on his long TD run.

[u/wavesport303]

I drove 6 hours each way for this game, absolutely worth it.

Farve seemed like he would have been a good QB in the NFL... To bad his career was so short

[u/sudo_rm_rf_star]

Listened to that game on the radio in the car, it was glorious

[u/SaintsNoah]

He had a lot of potential. What ever happened to him?
