Vikings quarterback Brett Favre and coach Brad Childress got into a "heated discussion" in the third quarter of Sunday night's game against the Panthers. Childress tried to pull Favre, which led to the exchange. "Brad wanted to go in a different (direction), and I wanted to stay in the game. "We were up," Favre said, referring to his team's 7-6 lead in the third quarter. " 'I'm staying in the game.' "
