It wasn't his elbow this time. Not the fractures in his his foot or heel, either. No, it was a nasty, bloody gash to his a chin, courtesy of a New England defensive end Myron Pryor.
Something that happens every Sunday of the NFL season happened to Brett Favre for the first time in 20 years playing this game. It was so historic, momentous and emotional that Patriots fans actually booed the battered quarterback as he was taken away.
That's when a moment of clarity struck the 41-year-old grandfather who just can't leave the game he loves.
"I thought to myself for a brief second, 'What in the world am I doing?' " Favre said Sunday.
Funny. That's what most of us have been thinking on Favre's behalf the last few weeks.
What in the world is he doing?
