According to Pro Football Talk, the Vikings have toned down Brett Favre's practice schedule to try and keep the veteran from wearing out down the stretch. Favre has had an incredible season to date, but he has been showing some signs of slowing over the past couple weeks. After throwing just three picks in the first 12 weeks of the season, he has tossed three in the last two weeks and has just three touchdowns. Source: ProFootballTalk.com
Smart move by the Vikings. By doin this it will less likely get Favre hurt in the final weeks of the season
makes sense. don't want to have to depend on tavarius late in the season if anything happens to brett.
