Known for his extraordinary toughness, bravery, and unmatched passing skills, Brett Favre is one of the best quarterbacks in NFL history. The Green Bay Packers behemoth has proved to be the most consistent NFL player of the last 15 years. He was the first quarterback to set a Green Bay and NFC record for the most touchdown passes in a single season. He has become one of the greatest quarterbacks to play the game.
Called the ‘Iron Man of the NFL’, Favre has led the Packers since 1992 and has been pivotal in making the team a bona fide football dynasty. In 1997 the Packers handily defeated the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXI, and advanced to the Bowl in 1998 as well, losing to the Denver Broncos. Favre holds a smattering of career records, including most seasons with 30 or more touchdown passes, most consecutive seasons with 3,000+ passing yards, and most NFL MVP awards. Truly the stuff that sports legends are made of, Favre’s era of dominance has been one of the most exciting in NFL history.
