Old Man Ball(s): Favre Tosses Six TDs While Warner Notches Six Turnovers in Jets Blowout


Just your typical throwback style of gunslinger.

Brett Favre and the Jets are just rubbing it in at this point. They went for a two point conversion with 54 -- yes, 54 -- points already on the board. That gave them a 56-35 over the Arizona Cardinals. That score means a few things.

First of all, the Arizona defense probably will be dealing with a Titanic-sized shame spiral on Monday morning. Not as big a spiral as Kurt Warner though (this being point number two), who fumbled the ball four times, three of which were lost, and threw three not so intelligent interceptions.

As for point three, it probably doesn't feel really great to be Matt Leinart; after all, when you're a first round draft pick and the ageless wonder in front of you coughs the ball up six times and your team is getting blown out, well, you expect to see a little action.

And finally, no one wants to be the only team in Favre's way-too-long NFL career to give up six passing touchdowns. But that's exactly what Arizona will be, provided Brett doesn't lob up a six pack again this year, of course. See, in all his glorious gunslinging games of years past, Favre has never thrown for six touchdowns. And today he did.

And tomorrow, while Ken Whisenhunt is busy screaming at everyone except Leinart, Peter King will release his 42 internet-page column and 41 of them will be dedicated to the sexy goodness of Favre's chiseled scruff and his marvelous six pack of scores. Either that or peanut butter fluffed lattes.

But the point being is that we all while Favre press conferences and columns are really bad for everyone involved, at least we're not fans of the Arizona Cardinals.
