KIRWAN SEES 80-PERCENT CHANCE OF FAVRE RETURN
Posted by Mike Florio on July 11, 2008, 8:54 a.m.
As the Favre watch continues to dominate the NFL news and rumors, Pat Kirwan of NFL.com offers up an informed estimate of the chances that the former Packers quarterback will return in 2008.
“I have talked with a few people close enough to Favre that I now feel comfortable that an 80 percent chance may be a conservative estimate,” Kirwan writes. “He’s throwing footballs, working out and it’s more than an itch to play.”
Really, most league insiders are now presuming that Favre will play in 2008. The only question is where. And if it’s not in Green Bay, Kirwan sums up the situation perfectly: “If Favre throws for 4,000 yards and takes a team deep into the playoffs while the Packers struggle, it could destroy careers for those who made the decision to cut him loose.”
