Favre now No. 1 in wins as Green Bay pounds Giants

Football Betting Lines

09/16/2007 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brett Favre threw three touchdown passes and DeShawn Wynn ran for a pair of scores to lead the Green Bay Packers to a 35-13 win over the New York Giants.

Favre complete 29-of-38 passes for 286 yards with one interception on his way to becoming the NFL's all-time leader in wins with 149 and now needs just four more TD passes to become the all-time leader in that category.

Wynn ran for 50 yards and Donald Driver had eight catches for 73 yards with one touchdown for the Packers (2-0), who scored 28 points in the second half to cruise to their second win of the season.

Donald Lee and Bubba Franks also caught TD passes for Green Bay, which has won both of its games this season against NFC East teams. Last week, the Packers beat the Philadelphia Eagles, 16-13.

Giants quarterback Eli Manning started despite suffering from a sprained throwing shoulder on Week 1's 45-35 loss to Dallas, but his presence on the offense didn't help the horrendous New York defense.

Manning completed 16-of-29 passes for 211 yards with one touchdown and one interception. He left the game late in the fourth quarter when the Packers had the game well in hand.

Derrick Ward, filling in for injured starter Brandon Jacobs in the Giants backfield, ran for 90 yards and Plaxico Burress had two catches for 32 yards and a TD for New York, which has dropped eight of its last 10 regular-season games dating back to last season.
