Touchdown | featured news

Tom Brady and his teammates reached the playoffs with a performance worthy of the once dominant Patriots. Brady threw four touchdown passes, three to Randy Moss, and the young defense put together its third straight solid game as New England beat Jacksonville 35-7 on Sunday, further dimming the Jaguars' slim postseason chances.

When the wildcat delivered a big play for the Miami Dolphins, coach Tony Sparano skipped along the sideline with glee, reached back and threw a roundhouse punch. That was just in the first quarter. The knockout came much later, again with the wildcat.

An amped up Brett Favre was nearly perfect against his former team, throwing for 271 yards and three touchdowns to help the Minnesota Vikings to a 30-23 win against the Green Bay Packers on Monday night.

Brett Favre is thankful to still be playing and winning in the NFL. Adding a league record to his overflowing collection is merely a bonus. Favre set another mark with his 271st straight start in the regular season, then threw two touchdown passes to help the Minnesota Vikings beat the Detroit Lions 27-13 on Sunday.
