Baltimore?

I would hate for the guy to go anywhere else and play. He should have retired a year or two ago, and this would just give him the false impression that it's not time to hang it up...

I'm thinking he will end up throwing ints for the Bills next year..... maybe.... who cares???

It would be a brillant move for Cinn to get him. Palmer wont be ready for the season imo and it would block a division rival. Farve would be thrilled to be throwing to CJ.

I care because I'm worried that we end up seeing Brett Favre hooking up with Randy Moss, and CRRRRRRRRRRRRazy Al is just the sumbidge to pull something like that off just to get butts in seats. I don't know if Brett would be down for such a thing, but I'd imagine that the prospects of throwing to Moss might get his wheels jogging at least a little bit.

Why shouldn't Brett leave? He doesn't owe the Packers anything. Management quit trying to win football games in Green Bay five years ago.

the guy threw 29 interceptions so I hope the raiders get him even though they already picked up Brooks, but the raiders have no freaking clue how to run an NFL club.

This is what I believe, too. He's a Packer! I just can't see him taking his act that isn't even sure if it wants to play in GB to any other city.

Good call, Mock.

I don't think there is a chance of that happening. The Raiders already invested in Brooks, and might draft Vince Young.

Even if it were to happen, would that be a bad thing...for the Broncos? Farve would go from one bad team to another.

Exactly, the Packers lost 9 games by 10 points or less. Those 29 ints by Favre, cost them the majority of those games. Favre is a washed up attention whore.

Id tend to agree.

Stupid ass Taco with his limited football knowledge thinks its scary, but Favre is no longer the Favre that won a SB and 3 MVPs.

Favre was a great QB, loved to watch him play, but he should retire, and certainly shouldnt change teams.

Couldnt be more thrilled to see him in JOkeland though.

I'm actually pretty far in the minority, but I think Favre still has something left... but it's not going to happen for him on a team like GB or OAK at this stage in his career. He needs weapons around him, a defense, etc. There was time he could win Elway style (doing most of it himself)... but those days are gone.

Still, put him in our system... put him on Pittsburgh or Indy, and he'd still be winner.

Oh please the Packers gave the guy plenty of ammunition. He played with FIVE PRO BOWLERS on offense:

Donald Driver WR
Javon Walker WR
Bubba Franks TE
William Henderson FB
Ahman Green RB

Plus a couple of his lineman got a pro bowl nod along the way too. Oh poor Brett Favre, having to play with all those damn pro bowlers. Pitty the fool for Green Bay did nothing to help him win. Give me a break.

He made those guys. The Packers are $30 million under the cap. How are you going to spin that?

I find the whole situation sad. The only time I actively rooted against the guy was SB32... that organization has done nothing but lean on #4 since. Now he deservedly wants some help, and his "fans" and "team" have turned on him. I wish he would have walked away last year...

Something we can agree on. I'm suprised at all the anti-Brett sentiment, especially coming from the Broncos fan-base. We, of all people, should know what a motivated veteran with a never say die approach to the game can be capable of, even late in his career.

I wouldn't want to disrupt our team, but I'm confident that we could win a lot of games with Brett Favre on it.

GonzoLays

That is besides the point, he has had more ammunition than any other franchise QB in professional football. I don't understand how he "made" the 12th pick in the draft TE Bubba Franks, or first rounder Javon Walker but hey if that is your story stick with it. Ahman Green was a stud in college and was drafted in the second round. I always thought high draft picks were suppose to be able to perform at a high level.

So what Green Bay is under the cap this year. Were they under the cap the past four seasons? I don't think so. Adam Shefter reported that they were 16million under the cap this season. It depends on who you listen too. What was Donovan McNabbs excuse during all those years he led philly to the conference championships with his team under the cap and half the ammunition that Favre had? Was Donvan bitching and moaning like that spoiled brat Favre? God forbid Farve ever had to play with a banged up Dorsey Levens as your starting running back and Freddie Mitchell as one of his go to receivers. He probably would have thrown 40 ints that year.

Players play with the hand they are dealt. Favre is simply a bitch for bemoaning his situation when half the starting QB's in the league would die for the pro bowlers and high draft picks he has playing with him on offense.

We saw what Brett Favre was capable of when he finally had to play with subpar talent around him. Give him five healthy Pro Bowlers at all his skill positions and he will put up decent numbers. Give him anything else and he will give you 29ints like last year.

Thats the bottom line.

I don't think there's anything wrong with Brett that good coaching couldn't fix. Sadly, Green Bay hasn't seen that since Holmgren left.

I don't care what anyone says... Favre would be dangerous if he was throwing to Randy Moss. Whether they would win games or not still depends on how much their defense improves, but Favre would be a good pick-up for the Raiders.

Has it ever dawned upon you Brett Favre fans that is he who is bringing down the Packers not the team.

He has a lot of talent in Green Bay. He simply isn't good enough any more to take advantage of it. Hence all the Favre comments concerning "talent" and "doing what it takes to win;" He is shifting blame from himself to the team and all you guys eat it up. He had a thousand yard back last season, he had a pro bowl WR AND pro bowl TE lining up for him. It is an absolute disgrace for a QB with that much talent around him to throw 30 ints in a season.

No. Months are 30(ish) days. He/She will be one month old in January 2007. You put twelve of these months together to form a measurement of time known as the year. Brett Favre has lived 36 of these years. We can tell by subtracting the current year by his birth year, giving us his relative age.

You might not want to do that.



That's why the equation is relative age. If the month of the original birthdate has passed, then the person has entered the threshold of that number. That person is that number. If the month has not yet passed, then the person has not yet crossed that threshold, thus Brett Favre is 36 not 37. Thus, a person born in December 2006 is only going to be 1 month old in January 2007. Because only a month has passed.

1000 yard back? I'm not going to go look it up but I know his top 2 got hurt for the year, He lost his best reciever and Franks was hurt a lot. The packers D sucked. I'm not a huge Farve fan but if you actually watched football instead of sportscenter you would see he didn't have much to work with. I'm sure media and guys like you were calling for Elway to hang it up before the SB years and said Elway will go down as best QB to never win one.

What's going to happen is that he's going to go in and show his ID. They're going to use the Taco John Equation of Relative Age, and determine that he's not legally old enough to drink in public.
