Favre, Vikings begin preparing for Packers circus

For the Minnesota Vikings, a Monday night matchup against the Green Bay Packers is about as big as a regular season game gets. “All you’ve got to do around here is say Packer week, and everybody gets excited,” cornerback Antoine Winfield said. When they’re playing for first place in the NFC North at the quarter mark on the schedule, well, the intensity will only increase. When Brett Favre happens to be the Vikings’ new quarterback, the public interest in this rivalry is on the verge of explosion. This may be the best rated game all season long, maybe except for the game that Favre returns to Green Bay.
