NFL - Final Score: Green Bay Packers @ Minnesota Vikings

Favre connects for TD pass No. 421 to break Marino mark

Sep. 30, 2007 CBSSports.com wire reports

Brett Favre is No. 1 -- with a bullet.

Favre broke Dan Marino's record for career touchdown passes Sunday, zipping No. 421 to Greg Jennings in the first quarter of the game against the Minnesota Vikings.

He hit Jennings on a 16-yard slant for the score with 4:56 left in the quarter.

It's the latest, and possibly the most hallowed record claimed by the league's last true gunslinger. Two weeks ago, Favre broke John Elway's mark for career victories by a quarterback when he led the Packers to a 35-13 win over the New York Giants.

The soon-to-be 38-year-old also holds the marks for career completions and consecutive starts by a quarterback, which hit 241 Sunday, moving him past former Vikings center Mick Tingelhoff into second place on the list for all players.

Former Vikings defensive end Jim Marshall holds the all-time mark with 270 consecutive starts.

Favre entered the day needing just 11 attempts to break Marino's record for passes and is also within shouting distance of Marino's record for yards passing.

Favre tied Marino's record with three touchdown passes in the Packers' 31-24 victory over San Diego last week, including the record-tying 57-yard completion to Jennings that gave the Packers the lead late in the game.

In other scores:
The Bears fell to the Lions which makes "da bears" 1-3. Greise taking over for Grossman really did not help them at all. Which makes me satisfied. I'm so sick of "da bears".
Chicago Bears at 27
Detroit Lions 37

The Eagles take on the Giants this evening and the Patriots play the Bengals on Monday so keep checking back for updates on scores.
