NFL: GREEN BAY (3-0) at MINNESOTA (1-2) <h3>Favre looks to break touchdown record</h3> Green Bay (3-0) at Minnesota (1-2) Sunday 1:00 pm EDT MINNEAPOLIS (Ticker) - While Brett Favre keeps re-writing theNFL record book, the Green Bay Packers keep winning games. One of five unbeaten teams in the NFL, the surprising Packersseek their first 4-0 start in nine years on Sunday when theyvisit the Minnesota Vikings in an NFC North contest. In last week's 31-24 victory over the San Diego Chargers, Favrethrew three touchdown passes to match Dan Marino's all-time markof 420. The ageless quarterback tied the record in dramatic fashion,finding Greg Jennings over the middle for a 57-yard score with2:30 remaining to give the Packers a 24-21 lead. It was the 150th career victory for Favre, who a week earliersurpassed John Elway to become the winningest quarterback in NFLhistory. A three-time MVP, Favre should break another NFL record this weekas he is just 10 passes shy of Marino's mark of 8,358 careerattempts. The Packers have passed 70 percent of the time and this weekshould be more of the same as they will be facing the NFL's No.1 run defense from last season. "I would prefer to be a heavy run team, but that's just not theway we're built right now, and that's not the way that gives usthe best chance to score a lot of points in my opinion," GreenBay coach Mike McCarthy said. The Vikings return home after suffering a 13-10 loss atMinnesota and have issues at quarterback. Kelly Holcomb replaced Tarvaris Jackson, who was sidelined witha groin injury, and completed just 13-of-26 passes for 160yards. Minnesota did get a solid game from rookie running back AdrianPeterson, who rushed for 102 yards and caught three passes for48 yards. Peterson is now the Vikings' featured running back, following aWeek One hip injury to Chester Taylor. The Vikings are looking to snap a two-game losing streak andescape the NFC North basement.
