Favre Throws No 421

Brett Favre is No. 1 - with a bullet. Favre broke Dan Marino's record for career touchdown passes on Sunday, zipping No 421 to Greg Jennings in the first quarter of Green Bay's 23-16 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. He hit Jennings on a 16 yard slant for the score with 4:56 left in the quarter and like most of his touchdown throws through his brilliant 17 year career, this one had plenty of steam on it. He sprinted to the end zone, hoisted Jennings on his left shoulder and joined in hugs with his teammates on the sideline as thousands of Packers fans who made the trip from Wisconsin to Minneapolis, cheered loudly.
