this is just like last year.  Favre is doing great right now, he will wear down in nov-dec.

I don’t have a dog in this fight (although I’m pretty sure that he banged an ex-girlfriend of mine). But you guys are some Favre haters.

I am a Favre hater and I won’t hide from it !! Next Monday is an ESPN wet dream, Packers at Vikings ! Stuart Scott and Boomer are walking around the studios right now with their pants around their ankles.

Man Brett Favre sucks, huh? Who knew they’d beat GB?

I am beginning to think you don't watch football... Minnesota was like 11-5 last year and in the playoffs (Jets made playoffs once under Mangini... read an interesting article that basically said never hire a belichek defensive coordinator(romeo crennel,mangini) because belichek runs the defense and not sure what the def cord does, except take credit)

Favre was great last night, even when All Day had a horrible game. That cornerback Winfield is awesome.

Rodgers looked good too considering he was running for his life most of the game(7 sacks??) and the pass rush of GB is terrible, why is Aaron Kampman(37 sacks in 2 years) dropping back into coverage?

I was wrong.  I started to begin seeing the light last week w/that last second throw, but last night clinched it.  I can’t believe the dude’s still got it.  Can anyone remember the last time that he looked that much in control?  Especially w/the run game being absolutely shut down.

Nice work. You wait a week until responding to that comment on Childress. You can think he is a great coach all you want, the guy can’t even find the challenge flag and has never done anything but bring Andy Reid lunch.

  Favre did look great last night, I have no problem admitting that. He looked great early last year also. If you think Favre is better than Rodgers you are a complete dumbass.

  Well they were favored by 5 points, so every gambling line in the country knew it.     Can you guys read ? I never said he sucks. I was complaining that he is an arrogant egomaniac who loves the spotlight. I was right again. Last night Jon Gruden was beating his meat in the booth the entire night. Showing Favre's practice highlights from 1996 ? Give me a break. Then Favre is about to cry in post game interview. What a stroke.

I think he is the greatest example of defeating his own legend in pro sports.  Maybe Pete Rose was worse, but Favre’s just seems more self-inflicted.  The guy had the football world by the ba!!s, and he just walked away from the opportunity.  So how do you think the GB fans are going to feel when he wears a GB shirt into Canton?  I mean, seriously, he pissed all over them, but he can’t realistically wear any other shirt.

Let’s not forget the Packers told Favre they did not want him anymore.  The guy just wanted to play, and he seems to be doing pretty well.  It felt pretty good last night watching Favre stick it to Packer management.

What has Rodgers done? That is like comparing Kyle Orton to John Elway… Sure they play for the same team and Orton is 4-0, but Elway did it for a long time with playoff and superbowl wins.



Rodgers was so great last year GB missed the playoffs after going 13-3,then they go 6-10??? Rodgers is younger I will give you that, but we all know the QB position is more about leadership and knowing what to do than it is 40 times and who can throw the farthest… If i was starting a team i would definitely pick Rodgers, but if I have an established team and can make a run or two then i go favre.



Does the challenge flag really matter, when the guy intercepts it on the next play or when you are winning 30-14?

Seriously did you miss the throw last weekend??? Legends are for the media and punks... Didn't Michael Jordan ruin his own legend when he was on the wizards? Do you think he cares? Did you hear his hall of fame speech, he thinks he can still play... That's what makes these guys who they are. Legend status is for media, book writers and fans of the opposing teams.. No one else cares

You think teams in the NFL would select Favre over Rodgers in a draft today ? I am not talking about career. Favre is arguably the best QB ever, but TODAY I would select Rodgers.

  Rodgers will never have a career like Favre has had. And yes the challenge flag matters. You don't judge things like that after the fact. You look at whether or not it was a good call/challenge when it was/wasnt made.

I said if i was starting a new team I would pick Rodgers…



I hate the idea of challenge flags, roughing the passer, hitting a defenseless receiver. The game is becoming flag football… It was great to see Tebow get lit up. That is why college football will always be better.

Oct 6, 2009 3:42 pm

Sorry about that. I didn’t read your entire post.

  I agree with the roughing the passer and hitting a defenseless WR. The way Brady was able to whine and get the ref to throw a flag even though he didnt even hit the ground was a joke.

Anyone else like the Sears commercial with Favre as much as I do?

Oct 8, 2009 11:34 pm

I will admit, that is hilarious.

Is someone caving on Favre?
