Almost dropped half a season? They went 9-7 and were 8-3 at one point in A) the toughest division in the NFL and B) the better conference.
With C) one of the easiest schedules in NFL history.

I mean, Favre's terrible finish down the stretch game against:
Denver (a team that finished 29th in team defense)
San Francisco
Buffalo (who beat nobody in their division)
Seattle (a team that finished 30th in team defense)
Miami

It's not as though he was playing against great teams down the stretch. In fact, in a season where you play both the NFC and AFC Wests, winning only 9 games is kind of an embarassment since both of those divisions are terrible.
