Brett Favre went 22-for-32 for 259 yards and an interception before he limped off the field in the fourth quarter. Patriots’ Myron Pryor hit Favre near the throat, which made the veteran signal-caller shaky and he was carted off the field.

New England got an overwhelming 28–18 lead in the last two minutes on atwo-yard touchdown run by Green-Ellis.
