Brett Favre had 172 yrds and NO td’s. Brett Favre was perfect on two scoring drives, and theMinnesota Vikings won Leslie Frazier’s NFL head coaching debut despite Adrian Peterson’s early injury, beating the Washington Redskins 17-13 Sunday.

Favre went 3 for 3 on Minnesota’s opening possession, which ended with Peterson’s 5-yard touchdown run. The 41-year-old quarterback was 5 for 5 on the first drive of the second half, capped by a 5-yard TD from rookie Toby Gerhart, who took over after Peterson left in the second quarter with a bad right ankle.

Favre scrambled for a first down on third-and-8 right before the two-minute warning, then hugged several teammates. Minnesota (4-7) ended its nine-game road losing streak, less than a week after firing coach Brad Childress and promoting Frazier.

Washington is 5-6.
