Favre Breaks All-time Touchdown Record

Brett Favre broke Dan Marino's touchdown record of 420 Sunday in the Packers 23-16 win over the Minnesota Vikings.

According to the Associated Press, Favre threw his record-breaking 421st touchdown pass in the first quarter with a 16-yard pass to wide receiver Greg Jennings with 4:56 left in the quarter. Favre then sprinted to the end zone and hoisted Jennings on this shoulders.

The Vikings then played a video message from former record holder Dan Marino where he said, ""I loved holding the touchdown record for the past 13 years, but if someone was going to break it, I'm glad it was someone like you, who has always competed at the highest level and always played to win."

The Packers moved to 4-0 on the season.
