NFL: Favre throws 3 TDs as Packers beat Panthers
By Chris Jenkins

It was Favre's 62nd career game with at least three touchdown passes, tying yet another of Dan Marino's records.
The 44-year-old Testaverde and 38-year-old Favre formed the oldest starting quarterbacks duo in NFL history. But Favre is playing like he's in his prime these days, completing 22-of-30 passes for 218 yards today.
Testaverde was out of the league a little more than a month ago, and played today without injured receiver Steve Smith. He threw two second-half touchdowns after the Panthers fell behind 28-3, but was intercepted twice.
It was the first of three games in 12 days for the Packers (9-1), who play at Detroit on Thanksgiving and at Dallas the following Thursday. It was only the second road loss of the season for the Panthers (4-6), who are winless at home.
