Recently, the Minnesota Vikings head coach Brad Childress talked about Brett Favre’s injury in an interview. About the blows Favre received from the New Orleans Saints defense in NFC championship game and caused the quarterback’s injury, Childress made it clear that the Vikings won’t sit back and will deal with such attacks in wiser way next time.
Seemingly with the hope to disrupt opponent team’s starting quarterback, the Saints defense gave a number of big blows on Favre’s high-low body part. The attacks seemed effective as frustrated Favre told reporters after the game that he was suffering pains on different parts of his body. The attackers included Remi Ayodele and Bobby McCray, but none of them got any penalty during the game. It was some time after the game that the NFL made acknowledgement on their mistakes in not punishing the Saints defensive players for their personal fouls.
It might also be one of the factors that caused the Vikings to lose the title game overtime, but it needs to be proven by the season opener on Sept. 9, when the Saints and Vikings will meet again in New Orleans. In order to make it more convincing, it also requires Favre to wear back his Vikings jersey to face the same defense.
