Brett Favre threw for 227 yards, passing Dan Marino as the NFL's career leader in passing yards. Favre has 61,405 yards -- 44 more than Marino, who retired after the 1999 season. This season, Favre has broken three of Marino's records, including pass attempts (8,685 to 8,358) and touchdown passes (438 to 420). Favre also broke John Elway's record for wins by a QB (158 to 148).

Commentary: Favre has certainly carved his place among the top four QBs in NFL history, right there alongside Elway, Marino and Joe Montana.

Fantasy Football Impact: Favre has 3,905 yards and 26 TD passes -- his best season since 2004. After two subpar years, he is once again among the top three or four fantasy QBs.
