Too young to have witnessed 15-1 in '98? That was even better. Even '17 seemed like a very charmed year (especially after the Minneapolis Miracle), they had the #1 defense & the 1st time they went 13-3, better than '09's 12-4.

@@bifftannen1598 they need another home nfc championship game. The last three nfc championships we were the number 2 seed and lost to the 1 seed at their house.
Andy If the Vikings play a relatively clean game and the officials don't blow those calls the Vikings beat the Saints easy. And as we saw in the Super Bowl, the NFC was clearly stronger this year
This Vikings team was so entertaining. Favre, Peterson, Allen, Hutchinson, Kevin Williams hofers. Ton of personalities. Several great games throughout the year, some with great stories. Even without a Super Bowl this goes down as one of the most enjoyable teams of all time.
@@scoobycarr5558 Tark was entertaining, and so were the purple people eaters, but they need to finish the job and get a ring, even if it's done in a boring way.

@@drewbrees22 honestly I'd have been okay with brees. I'd prefer favre tho considering how much elevated that whole team and came off a major surgery for his throwing arm that could've limited his ability to play. Vikings played a slightly harder schedule too. Favre and brees were my top 2 candidates followed by Chris Johnson then peyton manning.
@@WhoopityDoo Maybe,maybe not. With Moss you had to light a fire under his ass sometimes. He would have been motivated playing with Favre like he was with Tom. Randy always said he would have loved playing with the gunslinger.
@@sludge4125 Way, way off. Favre is easily a Top 7 QB of all time. Moreover, it may surprise you to know that his INT % is roughly equivalent to some of the other greats of his era.
@@jackiecicchetti1151 It's actually better than most by a wide margin if you look at all time numbers. Everyone talks about how many INT's Favre threw but he ended his career with 508 TD's to 336 INT's. Aikman on the other hand ended his career with 165 TD's to 141 INT's.
soccerbitch, I wrote that he threw two of the dumbest interceptions ever! That’s a fact. There’s nothing a jock sniffer can write that can change that. Period. But, it appears that you like to deny facts. Hey, half of the United States deny facts. So, what else is new?
I got to see him play his last GB year in Dallas, the next year with the Jets in Nashville, and this 09 season with the Vikings in St Louis. All were great games. The one in Dallas Favre got hurt and it was the first time we got to see Aaron Rodgers play almost a full game. Us Packer fans were all pleasantly surprised with how well he played. Kept us in it pretty much the whole game. That was the TO year in Dallas when they had a damn good team. Last season in the old Texas stadium
I really think that if Sydney Rice was healthy in 2010, we would have been a 10-6 team. Fabre and Rice had such a great chemistry, losing him for the 2010 season killed us
That would have been fucking awesome to watch, Favre throwing bombs downfield for Moss to snatch out of the air. If Randy Moss were in that team with a healthy Sydney Rice on the other side and Favre throwing to them they would have had a chance at being one of the most potent offenses ever. Plus it would have been pretty fucking cool seeing Favre throwing to Moss instead of playing against him. Even almost a decade later it is still so weird seeing Favre in a purple Vikings jersey, particularly the Vikings 2 games against the Packers. If you would have told people back in the early 2000's that Favre wasn't going to stay a Packer his entire career and that he was going to sign with the arch rival Vikings I don't think anyone would have believed you, lol. Those God damn cheese eating Packer bastards sure have gotten lucky at QB in the last 25 years. Seriously though, they have only had 2 starting QB's (outside of the few starts through the years that Rodgers missed to injury), and both those QB's will be among the top 5 or 10 QB's all time when all is said and done. Even if you hate the Packers you have to admit how crazy it is that they went from one hall of fame QB who played with them for years and years, then he decides to leave Green Bay only for another future hall of fame QB to replace him and play for years. I don't think there is a team in NFL history that had fewer starting QB's over an almost 30 year span. There are teams who start more than 2 QB's every other week, just look at Cleveland; they have close to 30 QB's who have started at least one game since they relaunched the franchise in the late 90's, lol.
@@supersexysega - except that if your kicker made those 2 FGs, it would've been a 1 score (17-9) game & the Cowboys had the ball really late in the 3rd. Not having those points on the board made them stress a lot more & it turned into a blowout. They weren't as far away as the score indicated. And I'm a Vikings fan
Now after some more seasoning as a Vikes fan, you should now realize they can win all the Wild Card & Divisional games they want. They just can't ever win an NFC title game & I fear the only home title game I will ever see is the one from '98, being it was the year of Randy Moss & he made that all possible. We'll never see anything like that again. Our Super Bowl is the NFC title game. If we ever did win it, just being in the real Super Bowl would be icing on the cake. SKOL!
This still hurts to watch. I watched this game like 6 times before the next game vs the saints... percy got his migraines that week and one look into his eyes you could see the pain he was in, he fumbled in that game. Vikings turned it over 5 times and we are in disbelief a decade later
Vikings were the most complete team that year hands down, and would have had the best record in the nfl if chestor taylor didn't let the ball pop off his hands resulting in a game ending pick that handed the steelers a win, a pick that was not Favre's fault at all. One of Favre's greatest seasons of his career if not his greatest. You can see the perfection of the first td throw to rice, while a defender blitzing Favre's face. Vikings best team in the 2009 season hands down. Refs screwed them, saints were cheaters and cheap shots, in my mind theres an asterisk on their super bowl win.
I am a die hard Packers fan and what happened to Minnesota that year was total BULLSH*T. The Saints set out to hurt top players INTENTIONALLY. There were calls made that were beyond pathetic. The whole thing was a joke. The Vikings should have been the champions that year, plain and simple.
If AP didn't fumble the ball in that overtime game against the bears who knows what could of happened. If the vikings scored that drive they would have won and got homefeild advantage
This team 100% deserved a Super Bowl win. Breaks my heart. Ray Edwards had just an insane game. I don’t ever recall a Vikings team being this talented. They were more loaded and a more complete team than the 98 Vikings. Allen, the Williams wall, Winfield, Hutchinson, McKinney, AP, Taylor, Favre, Shiancoe, Rice, and Harvin. What a team.
The Metrdome was not the best stadium in the league, but when the crowd got going, the sound wave would literally vibrate your chest. Sure helped when we had great teams like we did back then.
They were not in Longwell range. He hadn't hit one from that distance all year. The brilliant Brad Childress sent 12 men on the field the play before and they were penalized 5 yards. Otherwise they would have kicked.
Favre is the greatest improvisor in the history of the game. Read the thread before commenting. It may take 5 minutes, and for that I apologize. But then you can comment intelligently.
@@FlynnRider4 damn bud. thats deep. but i think you just described how it is for me as well. how much heart ache can one fan base take before they just end the relationship. we are just scared to be heart that badly again.
As a Dallas fan I must say I don't know how the hell the 09 Vikings didn't win it all that year. They were such a solid team on both sides of the ball.
I'm a Steeler fan, but the 09 Vikings were so fun and exciting to watch. I was pulling hard for those guys in the 09 playoffs. They had a SB calibre team and Favre deserved it that year to go out on top.
I don't know if this has been stated. The last touchdown, cowboys sideline started yapping at Favre. Apparently they were insulted by the touchdown and thought Favre was running up the score. The sportscaster actually got upset, he said "do you know what you should do then? Stop them" anyways the mn bench cleared, they got mad shit was directed at Favre. One of the greatest flexs I've ever seen in my life. This team was greater than the SB winners. A perfect team
I'll never forget this game. Giants fan. The Vikings absolutely murdered Dallas this game. Mind you that was a decent Cowboys team. Minnesota got rid of them FAST
Miss you #4 !..You should have won the Superbowl.. but at least you kicked a lot of ass along the way!...….. God Bless you Brett!... Thanks for the memories!..
Funny you say that, these stupid Cowboy fans here in Dallas complain that Troy is always hating on his former team. Never understood that lol. So maybe he is really objective
Poor Tony Romo had no chance this game. People said he choked a lot, and I'll agree sometimes he did, but I would say if he had the O-line the cowboys had now which he did and a big reason why they almost went all the way in 2014 he probably would have won a ring. His escape ability is unreal. I always like Tony Romo. One hell of a QB.
@Shabazzrgt007 Bazz regular season your right but playoffs he failed everytime w prime weapons in many years, like TO. He turned the ball over all. If the regular season is the only things that matters than I agree with you.
@@tozen7734 That 2009 defense was ranked 2nd. The year b4 that defense lead the league in sacks with 61 and tied third in takeaways. The year before Romo had a team of 13 Probowlers and went one and done! Talk about protection...how about Flozell Adams leaving to win a SB the following season in AT&T Stadium with GB
I was never so sure of a Minnesota Viking team like I was with the 2009 Vikings. they had an absolutely loaded offense, and Brett Favre running it. and a deep, and talented defensive line. still remember saying to myself, "this is it, this is the year." which makes it even more stunning how awful that season ended for the '09 Vikings.
I take it you weren't around to witness the '98 season when they went 15-1 (lost 1 game against a good Bucs team in TB 27-24) & scored the most points in history at that time. The whole Vikes offense was pretty much the NFC Pro Bowl team & they had some very good pieces on defense (John Randle, Jerry Ball, Ed McDaniel, Dwayne Rudd (guy was really fast), Dixon Edwards, Robert 'dropped 2 interceptions on the final Falcons drive in regulation when they ended up scoring a TD to tie & go to overtime' Griffith, Orlando Thomas, Corey Fuller & Jimmy Hitchcock, who they got before the season & he turned in a really good year before flaming out. All the stars were aligned & then poor team & clock management (Robert Smith running out of bounds stopping the clock for the Falcons at least twice on the drive before Wide Left) & a missed FG gave the Falcons an opportunity & they took it from them. John Randle played injured & was a non-factor in the NFC title game because Dennis Green wasn't a very good head coach (solid man however) & left him in when up by 20 at the end of the Cardinals Divisional game & he got injured. If you have yet to watch Minnesota Vikings: Legacy of Failure, you should check it out. It's actually kind of funny
@@bifftannen1598 as good as the '98 team was, Dennis Greens decision making process in the playoffs was something i didn't really trust. And got proven right again when he had Randall Cunningham take a knee at the end of regulation in the NFC Championship.
@@deanladue3151 - I agree. With Randy Moss on the team with the ability to win jump balls & get interference calls, they should've at least tried 1 deep ball to see if they could get in FG range at the end. Not trying that was inexcusable by Green. But even if they would've been able to try a game winning FG, it probably would've been blocked & returned for a game winning TD considering it's the Vikings
@@bifftannen1598 possible that he may lost his nerve, and he had just seen his secondary get absolutely shredded by Chris Chandler on Atlantas game tying drive. I think he felt the game was slipping away from them at end of regulation, and decided to take his chances in OT, but we may never know the real answer. And that Viking secondary was compromised when they started rookie corner Ramos McDonald, the Falcons went after McDonald pretty much the entire game.
@@deanladue3151 - That's right. I kinda forgot about McDonald having to be in there. He was in for Fuller, right? That Chuck Smith strip sack fumble recovery right before the 1st half was THE turning point that helped keep the Falcons in it the rest of the way. I liken it to when Rocky 1st drilled Drago & cut him. I was always leery of Cunningham's throwing motion & thought someone would eventually get their hand on it at some point because he puts his arm so far back. I think the end of the 1st half was also a great moment to illustrate Green's lack of coaching. With a 13 point lead, it would've been wise to try shorter, controlled passes and draws & eat up the clock to make sure they go in to halftime with a double digit lead & maybe have a shot at extending the lead to 23-7 if they got in FG range, rather than have Cunningham take a deep drop & wind up like he did, leaving himself more vulnerable to turnovers. With injuries (Randle, Ed McDaniel & Orlando Thomas) & inexperience (Wong, McDonald) on defense piling up, pounding Smith & Hoard more was warranted, especially when they had double digit leads. I get the feeling that if the Vikes had eeked out a win that Terrell Davis would've run for 200 yards on them with their depleted defense & Denver would've had 40 minutes time of possession
Sad part about this game is that it was a sign of things to come. After going 6-10 the following year, they were 8-8 the remaining 3 seasons and finally won a playoff game against the Lions in the Wild Card game in 2014, after a 12-4 season.
Holy shit Romo had zero time to throw all game. I really wish Dallas didn’t wait till he was in his mid-30s to finally start investing in the offensive line.
There is a video that has an interview with Joe Montana, he said himself that the game has been rigged even before his time. Not sure if I believe it or not but, as far as a ratings standpoint, I wouldn't be entirely surprised
@@michaelreed2293 As if athletes aren't stronger and faster today haha. I know your type, though. You're all about the "good ol' days." Romanticizing the past because you don't truly remember it.
6:38 - "That's brett favre doing what he's done his entire career." That same "Favre" play was the one that cost them a trip the the super bowl one game later. Live by the Favre, die by the Favre.
I guess you don't remember the game really. His interception didn't cost anything. With current field position it was 52 yarder which was pushing it for longwell. Anyway first down , run 0 yards... Second down same thing... Timeout and then 12 men on field. So now 57 yarder is a no go. .. it was 3rd and 15 and they needed yards. Throwing it away changes nothing.
Kristopher Kubsh it actually was going to be a 55 not a 57 as they were on the 38 yard line. Longwells long that year was 52 and career 55. If Favre ran out of bounds he could have picked up 3 or 4 yards, and he has someone in front of him at the 32 yard line. If he lead the throw out of bounds the recipient could have caught it. That would have been a 50 yarder. Longwell could have done it.
Coming from Texas and only being 9 at this time, I can truly say this was one of my first sports heartbreaks ever... still not as bad as UT and Bama in the championship, that one hits hard
Thanks Funkydunkleman. This was a fantastic game for Favre. He still had the talent after leaving the Packers. They should have kept him a few more years.
I watch this game it was when I young I like the vikings they are a good team but Brett Favre deserves respect he fought his whole career even we lost in a NFC championship game that year.
You guys had one too. You guys were a dirtier team than us in 2009. You guys injured more opponents than us in 2009. Our offense was our driving force, not our defense. You guys hated Brett Favre for so many years and enjoyed watching him get pounded. Bountygate is not what caused you guys to lose the NFC champuonship, it was all your fumbling
@@jjb1908 Injuring opponents while play tough football is far different than having a bounty out on key players and intentionally going after them with the purpose of injury. No team was dirtier than NO at that time. We hated Farve because we knew he was good--but 99% of MN fans at that time would have loved to see Favre wearing purple. It was an exciting time when he was. Fumbling didn't help, but cheap shots and no calls by the refs was the reason for the loss. It's not a secret or an opinion.
This wasn't some crappy 9-7 Cowboy wildcard team, this was a good team. Vikes were Super Bowl bound until Sean Payton cheated, he's been jinxed ever since.
The only reason Joe Buck would ever root for the Cowboys is because he hates whoever they're playing more than his precious Packers. Joe Buck HATES the Cowboys.
I don't know, but other than that John Lynch ignoramus, there may be no non-cowboy announcer, that kisses their butt more than Buck. He can't keep saying they have the best OL in football enough times. I would like to see Buck do a cryboy game with somebody other than Aikman, just to see how he wouldn't' have any excuse then, and see him just as bad. You must have memory of how Buck was before Aikman, which I don't recall, because he's awful for the cryboys now.
@curthennig9448 Awh, you are SO right. Didn't the Vikings go something like 14-2 or 15-1 that season? As a Wisconsinite, I was really proud of Farve, and not pissed off like he was some kinda traitor. But THAT NFC Championship game was the worst robbery by any team of the loser. It was almost as bad as that NBA West Final a few decades back, when Sacramento clearly outplayed the Lakers, only to lose by a whole bunch of horrible calls. Watching the Minny-N.O. game today just irritates the hell out of me. Many people say "Well, Farve made a bone head play"; but what QB would even be functional in the 4th quarter with all those viscious, illegal hits? At least illegal today, thank goodness. Farve had such great chemistry with guys like Moss that season, and was enjoying the game and playing like a 25 year old. His Vikings were robbed, and Minny STILL doesn't have a Super Bowl Title. New Orleans won big 2 weeks after this. Minnesota would have won even bigger.
@@jeffryhammel3035 Great chemistry with Sidney Rice in 09. Moss came in the following year. 12 men on the field penalty took them out of FG range. I think they had 3 red zone fumbles as well. Favre did take a beating and the game was theirs for the taking. Horrible officiating in OT too.
Brookings crying at the end of the game when Favre was still throwing for td's was priceless. Such an asshole. Jimmy Johnson said,' if you don't like it, stop 'em
A younger guy, this is my favourite Vikings team I've ever watched. Such a shame that Gregg Williams is still in the league, this team could've been World Champs
@@jjb1908..... but was it done on purpose??? huge difference between opponents getting hurt in a rough physical game and going out there to purposely injury the opposing team
@@robertsandstorm4785 yes it was done on purpose. Favre spilled the beans. In fact in your loss to the Steelers, you guys went one step further and took out an official
First off....R.I.P. Marion Barber, talented HB who played very well during his prime years with the cowboys. i remember watchin this game, seeing farve destroy the cowboys was great but also weird cuz seeing him in purple was super weird at the time. god time goes by so fast
“That’s Brett Favre. How long has been rolling to his right and throwing back across his body over the middle of the field, which is a no-no, and doing it with great success?” Thanks a bunch, Joe.
Favre was a legend, I wish they'd won the SB that year, he deserved to go out on top with 2 rings, but still one of the greatest. 1:22 that pass was so on point, fell right into the WRs arms, defender didnt even know there was a ball lol, he got caught way off guard the wr didnt even have to move his arms. #43 was like wtf just happened
Everyone talking about Favre in the Saints game. Did y'all forget his teammates fumbling the ball 4 times? They lost because you can't turn the ball over that many times against a good team and get away with it
This is one of my favorites games I was able to see live. The fact the media was nearly unanimously saying Cowboys were going to win this game. Nevermind the fact that the Vikings were undefeated at home that year and they dominated at home winning the last 5 home games by at least 17 points. The stadium was so damn loud that game it was crazy.
Nobody picked Dallas to win this game. Vikings were the better team and they deserved to win so stop making fake stuff up about Dallas being favored!!! Hopefully (I didn’t say definitely) Dallas can end their divisional woes tomorrow!!!
@@SinaSoh You are simply wrong. I am not talking vegas. Vikings were obviously favored with the gamblers. I am talking the ESPN prognosticators. And I am saying the majority of the "experts" on the air picked the Cowboys. Obviously some picked Vikings too. The player I was most worried about was Demarcus Ware.
@@matt4787 nobody picked Dallas to win. Almost everyone (myself as a Cowboys fan included) expected it to be Vikings vs Saints in the NFC title game (which it turned out to be). Maybe those analysts wanted the Cowboys to win (amazing for ratings) but the Vikes had Favre and he was a good draw as well!!!
@@SinaSoh the commentators always bash the vikings. and rarely do they unanimously pick the vikings to win games. its actually kinda crazy how much hate and negative commentary the vikings receive. not to mention how badly they are screwed by horrible officiating.
@@SinaSoh There was a decent amount in various media saying that the Cowboys were playing better football the last quarter of the season and thought they would beat Minnesota in the playoffs. Anybody with half a brain though knew the Vikings weren't losing at home to Dallas.

I just cannot get over that he was 40 years old here and slinging it like a 23 year old.
The first time I ever got to see Brett Favre play live. The best game ever
I got to see him play his last GB year in Dallas, the next year with the Jets in Nashville, and this 09 season with the Vikings in St Louis. All were great games. The one in Dallas Favre got hurt and it was the first time we got to see Aaron Rodgers play almost a full game. Us Packer fans were all pleasantly surprised with how well he played.

I really think that if Sydney Rice was healthy in 2010, we would have been a 10-6 team. Fabre and Rice had such a great chemistry, losing him for the 2010 season killed us
I wonder what would have happened if Moss came back to Minnesota in the 2009 Season. (Season when we went to the NFC Championship).
The Packers owned that season
If Prime Favre Stepped Onto The Field In 2009 Knowing Full Well What He Has To Do
Future Gohan if lol
That would have been fucking awesome to watch, Favre throwing bombs downfield for Moss to snatch out of the air.

Plus it would have been pretty fucking cool seeing Favre throwing to Moss instead of playing against him. Even almost a decade later it is still so weird seeing Favre in a purple Vikings jersey, particularly the Vikings 2 games against the Packers. If you would have told people back in the early 2000's that Favre wasn't going to stay a Packer his entire career and that he was going to sign with the arch rival Vikings I don't think anyone would have believed you, lol. Those God damn cheese eating Packer bastards sure have gotten lucky at QB in the last 25 years. Seriously though, they have only had 2 starting QB's (outside of the few starts through the years that Rodgers missed to injury), and both those QB's will be among the top 5 or 10 QB's all time when all is said and done. Even if you hate the Packers you have to admit how crazy it is that they went from one hall of fame QB who played with them for years and years, then he decides to leave Green Bay only for another future hall of fame QB to replace him and play for years. I don't think there is a team in NFL history that had fewer starting QB's over an almost 30 year span. There are teams who start more than 2 QB's every other week, just look at Cleveland; they have close to 30 QB's who have started at least one game since they relaunched the franchise in the late 90's, lol.

Not having those points on the board made them stress a lot more & it turned into a blowout. They weren't as far away as the score indicated. And I'm a Vikings fan
Now after some more seasoning as a Vikes fan, you should now realize they can win all the Wild Card & Divisional games they want. They just can't ever win an NFC title game & I fear the only home title game I will ever see is the one from '98, being it was the year of Randy Moss & he made that all possible. We'll never see anything like that again. Our Super Bowl is the NFC title game. If we ever did win it, just being in the real Super Bowl would be icing on the cake. SKOL!
Love this game. One of my all time faves
Romo went down way more than my ex-wife ever did
Which hopefully is why she's your EX wife.
ROFLMFAO!!!
You’re ex wife probably disliked your comment. LMAO
OMG! LMFAO!!!
That is funny shit
I was truly blessed to watch Favre play with the vikes. Great season!!
This still hurts to watch. I watched this game like 6 times before the next game vs the saints... percy got his migraines that week and one look into his eyes you could see the pain he was in, he fumbled in that game. Vikings turned it over 5 times and we are in disbelief a decade later
I’m not even a Vikings fan but I was SOO rooting for Favre and Co. to represent the NFC in the SB that year since my Falcons just missed the playoffs.
And me a Packers fan and was pulling for Farve. He just got robbed out of his second ring this time.
As a cowboys fan I called out of work for this game 😂😂
that 09 team my fav vikes team ever.
98
Savage Tilley 98 Vikes were the most exciting team
Wasn't a vikes fan until favre arrived. I did like John RANDLE!
John Randle was the best.
09 was good but I liked 98 Vikes they had it all except coaching.
I miss Brett Favre! (And his jeans...)

Me too!!!
Brian T nah, rodgers is better because of his ball security
Who doesn't?

@@kevinmoy2175 Rodgers needs to be more agressive or he will never make another Super Bowl
Vikings were the most complete team that year hands down, and would have had the best record in the nfl if chestor taylor didn't let the ball pop off his hands resulting in a game ending pick that handed the steelers a win, a pick that was not Favre's fault at all. One of Favre's greatest seasons of his career if not his greatest. You can see the perfection of the first td throw to rice, while a defender blitzing Favre's face. Vikings best team in the 2009 season hands down. Refs screwed them, saints were cheaters and cheap shots, in my mind theres an asterisk on their super bowl win.
That was the year I gave up on the NFL. Haven't went back since. Couldn't have said it better myself
I am a die hard Packers fan and what happened to Minnesota that year was total BULLSH*T. The Saints set out to hurt top players INTENTIONALLY. There were calls made that were beyond pathetic. The whole thing was a joke. The Vikings should have been the champions that year, plain and simple.
@@EdsterIII 🙃 they would of lost to the colts not a colts fan tho
@@cxthejokercx8302 No way
If AP didn't fumble the ball in that overtime game against the bears who knows what could of happened. If the vikings scored that drive they would have won and got homefeild advantage
The subtitles read "The Minnesota Vikings take on the New Orleans Bountygaters". Nice touch.
Thanks for making these videos, it's both nostalgic and painful to see that explosive offense and playmaking d
This team 100% deserved a Super Bowl win. Breaks my heart. Ray Edwards had just an insane game. I don’t ever recall a Vikings team being this talented. They were more loaded and a more complete team than the 98 Vikings. Allen, the Williams wall, Winfield, Hutchinson, McKinney, AP, Taylor, Favre, Shiancoe, Rice, and Harvin. What a team.
Best video description ever
The Metrdome was not the best stadium in the league, but when the crowd got going, the sound wave would literally vibrate your chest.
Sure helped when we had great teams like we did back then.
This was beautiful.

Joe Buck predicts the Vikings fate at 6:33
He throws an int against the Saints Championship game when they were in fg range
They were not in Longwell range. He hadn't hit one from that distance all year. The brilliant Brad Childress sent 12 men on the field the play before and they were penalized 5 yards. Otherwise they would have kicked.
First thing I thought too when I heard that.
Joel Mc should have pitched it to Peterson or run a designed pass that wouldn't allow favre to improvise
Favre is the greatest improvisor in the history of the game. Read the thread before commenting. It may take 5 minutes, and for that I apologize. But then you can comment intelligently.

Peyton Ratliff Dallas D did a good job destroying Dallas
LMFAO!
The Vikings defense that was elite, we had like 9 pro bowlers that year
If that O-line was so terrible, why did you have such a great rushing attack that season?
For real, Romo was absolutely on the run every play 😂
I don't know if this has been stated. The last touchdown, cowboys sideline started yapping at Favre. Apparently they were insulted by the touchdown and thought Favre was running up the score. The sportscaster actually got upset, he said "do you know what you should do then? Stop them" anyways the mn bench cleared, they got mad shit was directed at Favre. One of the greatest flexs I've ever seen in my life. This team was greater than the SB winners. A perfect team
09 vikings, from someone who watched live, gotta be one of the best teams ever. complete, dominant, young too except for favre. what a year
Love the vikes! Loved every second of this game.
The Favre Rice short lived matchup, is still one of my favourite matchups overall! GPG!!! F4L💚💛💚💛
I'll never forget this game. Giants fan. The Vikings absolutely murdered Dallas this game. Mind you that was a decent Cowboys team. Minnesota got rid of them FAST
2009 was such simpler time.
Miss you #4 !..You should have won the Superbowl.. but at least you kicked a lot of ass along the way!...….. God Bless you Brett!... Thanks for the memories!..
So well said. I miss him too! So much.
Troy Aikman was sooo silent in the highlights!
Funny you say that, these stupid Cowboy fans here in Dallas complain that Troy is always hating on his former team. Never understood that lol. So maybe he is really objective
He was embarrassed tbh. I don't think Aikman likes Romo.
Minny Paul because Cowboys were getting destroyed
Minny Paul I don't blame him. He won three super bowls with the Cowboys. Plus, he was probably thinking why Romo why?
Well, to be fair, most of the color commentary was cut on this video.
I often go back to this game and wonder how a Favre-Manning Super Bowl would’ve went.
Poor Tony Romo had no chance this game. People said he choked a lot, and I'll agree sometimes he did, but I would say if he had the O-line the cowboys had now which he did and a big reason why they almost went all the way in 2014 he probably would have won a ring. His escape ability is unreal. I always like Tony Romo. One hell of a QB.
Plus the catch that was actually a catch
@Matthew Alkman he was good but he o line was shit
Pretty sure 2014 was the year Romo lost a playoff game going 17-19 for 200 yds 2tds and no turnovers.
I get tired of being a cowboys fan sometimes lol
@Shabazzrgt007 Bazz romos trash
@Shabazzrgt007 Bazz regular season your right but playoffs he failed everytime w prime weapons in many years, like TO. He turned the ball over all. If the regular season is the only things that matters than I agree with you.
The magic of Favre is the only reason Rice ever got paid. He did nothing before or after #4 made him a Pro Bowler.
Romo had no protection the entire game and we missed two field goals. Add in the defense getting burned like toast and you have the 2008-2013 cowboys
HanShotFirst& Friends he slow af tho

If u ever wonder why tony romo was injured so much here u go.
I was never so sure of a Minnesota Viking team like I was with the 2009 Vikings. they had an absolutely loaded offense, and Brett Favre running it. and a deep, and talented defensive line. still remember saying to myself, "this is it, this is the year." which makes it even more stunning how awful that season ended for the '09 Vikings.
I take it you weren't around to witness the '98 season when they went 15-1 (lost 1 game against a good Bucs team in TB 27-24) & scored the most points in history at that time. The whole Vikes offense was pretty much the NFC Pro Bowl team & they had some very good pieces on defense (John Randle, Jerry Ball, Ed McDaniel, Dwayne Rudd (guy was really fast), Dixon Edwards, Robert 'dropped 2 interceptions on the final Falcons drive in regulation when they ended up scoring a TD to tie & go to overtime' Griffith, Orlando Thomas, Corey Fuller & Jimmy Hitchcock, who they got before the season & he turned in a really good year before flaming out. All the stars were aligned & then poor team & clock management (Robert Smith running out of bounds stopping the clock for the Falcons at least twice on the drive before Wide Left) & a missed FG gave the Falcons an opportunity & they took it from them. John Randle played injured & was a non-factor in the NFC title game because Dennis Green wasn't a very good head coach (solid man however) & left him in when up by 20 at the end of the Cardinals Divisional game & he got injured. If you have yet to watch Minnesota Vikings: Legacy of Failure, you should check it out. It's actually kind of funny
@@bifftannen1598 as good as the '98 team was, Dennis Greens decision making process in the playoffs was something i didn't really trust. And got proven right again when he had Randall Cunningham take a knee at the end of regulation in the NFC Championship.
@@deanladue3151 - I agree. With Randy Moss on the team with the ability to win jump balls & get interference calls, they should've at least tried 1 deep ball to see if they could get in FG range at the end. Not trying that was inexcusable by Green. But even if they would've been able to try a game winning FG, it probably would've been blocked & returned for a game winning TD considering it's the Vikings
@@bifftannen1598 possible that he may lost his nerve, and he had just seen his secondary get absolutely shredded by Chris Chandler on Atlantas game tying drive. I think he felt the game was slipping away from them at end of regulation, and decided to take his chances in OT, but we may never know the real answer. And that Viking secondary was compromised when they started rookie corner Ramos McDonald, the Falcons went after McDonald pretty much the entire game.
@@deanladue3151 - That's right. I kinda forgot about McDonald having to be in there. He was in for Fuller, right?
That Chuck Smith strip sack fumble recovery right before the 1st half was THE turning point that helped keep the Falcons in it the rest of the way. I liken it to when Rocky 1st drilled Drago & cut him. I was always leery of Cunningham's throwing motion & thought someone would eventually get their hand on it at some point because he puts his arm so far back.
I think the end of the 1st half was also a great moment to illustrate Green's lack of coaching. With a 13 point lead, it would've been wise to try shorter, controlled passes and draws & eat up the clock to make sure they go in to halftime with a double digit lead & maybe have a shot at extending the lead to 23-7 if they got in FG range, rather than have Cunningham take a deep drop & wind up like he did, leaving himself more vulnerable to turnovers. With injuries (Randle, Ed McDaniel & Orlando Thomas) & inexperience (Wong, McDonald) on defense piling up, pounding Smith & Hoard more was warranted, especially when they had double digit leads.
I get the feeling that if the Vikes had eeked out a win that Terrell Davis would've run for 200 yards on them with their depleted defense & Denver would've had 40 minutes time of possession
Sad part about this game is that it was a sign of things to come. After going 6-10 the following year, they were 8-8 the remaining 3 seasons and finally won a playoff game against the Lions in the Wild Card game in 2014, after a 12-4 season.
I'm still salty about how that year ended for us. We should have, at the very least, been in that Superbowl.
Holy shit Romo had zero time to throw all game. I really wish Dallas didn’t wait till he was in his mid-30s to finally start investing in the offensive line.
Back when NFL football was real!
There is a video that has an interview with Joe Montana, he said himself that the game has been rigged even before his time. Not sure if I believe it or not but, as far as a ratings standpoint, I wouldn't be entirely surprised

The next quarter back the Vikings draft should look at Brett Farvre's game play and learn how to play the position like him.
6:38 - "That's brett favre doing what he's done his entire career."
That same "Favre" play was the one that cost them a trip the the super bowl one game later. Live by the Favre, die by the Favre.
I guess you don't remember the game really. His interception didn't cost anything. With current field position it was 52 yarder which was pushing it for longwell. Anyway first down , run 0 yards... Second down same thing... Timeout and then 12 men on field. So now 57 yarder is a no go. .. it was 3rd and 15 and they needed yards. Throwing it away changes nothing.
Kristopher Kubsh it actually was going to be a 55 not a 57 as they were on the 38 yard line. Longwells long that year was 52 and career 55. If Favre ran out of bounds he could have picked up 3 or 4 yards, and he has someone in front of him at the 32 yard line. If he lead the throw out of bounds the recipient could have caught it. That would have been a 50 yarder. Longwell could have done it.
Kristopher Kubsh not to mention Longwell was 8 for his last 8 from 50 plus.
that's the life of then gunslinger
Miss Brett the legend never be another
That DAL o-line spent more time standing around than blocking for romo
Yep. And they kept sucking ass for like three more years... Thanks a lot JJ
That Man, never missed a game. Football, Personified

Coming from Texas, my 1st heartbreak, I was 8 during the 1994 nfc championship game. Cried myself out
Thanks Funkydunkleman. This was a fantastic game for Favre. He still had the talent after leaving the Packers. They should have kept him a few more years.
Maybe you didn't see what happened the following year. Look it up.
Brett was done in 2010 plus losing Rice off the get go meant the season was over. Sydney was to big a piece to lose on offense.
I watch this game it was when I young I like the vikings they are a good team but Brett Favre deserves respect he fought his whole career even we lost in a NFC championship game that year.
Watching the Dallas Cowboys being blown out in the postseason……..such a glorious sight to see.
Man we had it made with Taylor and Peterson.
gotta be one of the best RB duos of all time
Pains me to see how good we were to only find out later about New Orleans' head hunting scheme. What a fun season to be a Vikings fan!
You guys had one too. You guys were a dirtier team than us in 2009. You guys injured more opponents than us in 2009. Our offense was our driving force, not our defense. You guys hated Brett Favre for so many years and enjoyed watching him get pounded. Bountygate is not what caused you guys to lose the NFC champuonship, it was all your fumbling
@@jjb1908 Injuring opponents while play tough football is far different than having a bounty out on key players and intentionally going after them with the purpose of injury. No team was dirtier than NO at that time. We hated Farve because we knew he was good--but 99% of MN fans at that time would have loved to see Favre wearing purple. It was an exciting time when he was. Fumbling didn't help, but cheap shots and no calls by the refs was the reason for the loss. It's not a secret or an opinion.

This wasn't some crappy 9-7 Cowboy wildcard team, this was a good team. Vikes were Super Bowl bound until Sean Payton cheated, he's been jinxed ever since.
The announcers so obviously wanted Cowboys. What a joke. Joe Buck is horrendous.
The only reason Joe Buck would ever root for the Cowboys is because he hates whoever they're playing more than his precious Packers. Joe Buck HATES the Cowboys.
I don't know, but other than that John Lynch ignoramus, there may be no non-cowboy announcer, that kisses their butt more than Buck. He can't keep saying they have the best OL in football enough times. I would like to see Buck do a cryboy game with somebody other than Aikman, just to see how he wouldn't' have any excuse then, and see him just as bad. You must have memory of how Buck was before Aikman, which I don't recall, because he's awful for the cryboys now.

@curthennig9448 Awh, you are SO right. Didn't the Vikings go something like 14-2 or 15-1 that season? As a Wisconsinite, I was really proud of Farve, and not pissed off like he was some kinda traitor. But THAT NFC Championship game was the worst robbery by any team of the loser. It was almost as bad as that NBA West Final a few decades back, when Sacramento clearly outplayed the Lakers, only to lose by a whole bunch of horrible calls. Watching the Minny-N.O. game today just irritates the hell out of me. Many people say "Well, Farve made a bone head play"; but what QB would even be functional in the 4th quarter with all those viscious, illegal hits? At least illegal today, thank goodness. Farve had such great chemistry with guys like Moss that season, and was enjoying the game and playing like a 25 year old. His Vikings were robbed, and Minny STILL doesn't have a Super Bowl Title. New Orleans won big 2 weeks after this. Minnesota would have won even bigger.
@@jeffryhammel3035 Great chemistry with Sidney Rice in 09. Moss came in the following year. 12 men on the field penalty took them out of FG range. I think they had 3 red zone fumbles as well. Favre did take a beating and the game was theirs for the taking. Horrible officiating in OT too.
He couldn't beat those 90's Cowboys! 😎🎸
