My point is that you're wrong. One of Favre's many retirements - his first officially announced retirement - came after the 2007 season, when the team went 13-3 in the regular season and then beat Seattle in the playoffs before losing to the Giants.

That's not a team in a rebuilding mode. That's Favre walking away from a 13-3 team.
Yup, the guy who said his only reason for playing was to win another Super Bowl, officially retired from a team on the verge of getting there after a 13-3 season.
