 In the third game of the 1992 season , Majkowski injured a ligament in his ankle against the Cincinnati Bengals , an injury severe enough that he would be out for four weeks . Favre replaced Majkowski for the remainder of the contest . Favre fumbled four times during the course of the game , a performance poor enough that the crowd chanted for Favre to be removed in favor of another Packers backup quarterback at the time , Ty Detmer . However , down 23 – 17 with 1 : 07 left in the game , the Packers started an offensive series on their own 8 @-@ yard line . Favre then completed a 42 yard pass to Sterling Sharpe . Three plays later , Favre threw the game – winning touchdown pass to <unk> Taylor with 13 seconds remaining .
