A Milestone in NFL History

On December 16th, 2007, the football world witnessed a historic moment as Brett Favre, the legendary quarterback of the Green Bay Packers, shattered Dan Marino’s all-time record of 61,361 career passing yards. This remarkable achievement was marked by a 7-yard slant pass to Donald Driver during a game against the St. Louis Rams. Favre’s prowess didn’t stop there; in the second half, he threw his 440th touchdown, a 44-yard pass to Greg Jennings, further solidifying his place in NFL history.
