Gastineau confronts Favre in documentary for his 'dive' on Strahan's record-breaking sack

Former New York Jets star Mark Gastineau confronted Brett Favre last year at a memorabilia show and angrily accused the Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback of deliberately going down on a record-breaking sack.

The tense exchange is shown in the ESPN 30 for 30 documentary “The New York Sack Exchange,” which premieres Friday. It chronicles the Jets' fearsome foursome defensive line of the 1980s that included Gastineau, Pro Football Hall of Famer Joe Klecko, Marty Lyons and the late Abdul Salaam.

Gastineau set an NFL record with 22 sacks in 1984, but Pro Football Hall of Famer Michael Strahan broke the mark when he sacked Favre in 2002 in a game between the Giants and Packers. It was a controversial play on which many have accused Favre of purposely taking the sack so Strahan could set the single-season record with 22 1/2.

The documentary shows Gastineau approach Favre during a show in Chicago. The two shake hands, with Favre saying he thinks they've met previously. Gastineau then tells the former quarterback: “Yeah, right, when you fell down for him. I'm going to get my sack back. I’m going to get my sack back, dude.”
