After the St. Louis Rams unlikely victory against the Seattle Seahawks, Brett Favre has declared that Rams quarterback Austin Davis has the potential to do great things in the NFL.

Favre spoke about Davis, the only other quarterback from Southern Miss to start more than two games in the NFL, and says he can be the next Tom Brady or Kurt Warner.

"Austin can definitely play at this level," Favre told ESPN's Ed Werder.

"Not to sound off my rocker, but [Davis] -- in my mind -- can be the next Tom Brady or Kurt Warner. [Brian] Hoyer as well.

"Austin, like those mentioned, just needed a legit opportunity."

The 25-year-old Davis has had a great start to his 2014 after taking the starting quarterback spot from backup quarterback Shaun Hill. The Rams lost starting quarterback Sam Bradford to a torn ACL for the second time in two seasons earlier this year.

Davis has thrown for 1,517 yards, nine touchdowns and four interceptions this season while completing 66 percent of his throws. Davis will continue to start for the Rams barring injury and will likely get a realistic shot to keep the position in 2015.

Davis’ percent completion of 86 on Sunday, set the record for most accurate game against a defending Super Bowl champion in NFL history. The Rams travel to Kansas City to take on the Chiefs this Sunday.
