Packers want Favre as a backup?

[Partial]

Weird, but I dont remember him getting hurt in the Dallas game. Seems to me it was during practice the week after that he pulled a hammy.

Try the next practice. Also, how do we know it wasn't during the game and he didn't want to publicize it? Regardless, has he played in a game and been able to play the next week? No.

Was he needed in the next game, no.

What difference does that make?!?

He has not been able to go consistently. That is the point. If they release or trade Favre the pressure becomes 100000x more intense on A-Rod. I suspect he'll fail miserably.

Doesnt matter anymore. The wheels are in motion. Favre has made his stand. Doesnt really matter where it goes from here. I'm mainly just poking and prodding to stir the pot.

BTW it was said that if Rodgers had to start the Raiders game he could have. None of that matters when trying to make a point though.

Then try this one. If ARod was the srter when he pulled his hammy, how likely would they have deactivated him? Considering they were still in a race for home field? The only reason they did was becuase his being available in the playoffs was more improtant than the remaining regular season games.

Well, who knows who is telling the truth, but Favre has wavered so many times I'm inclined to side with the Packers brass. Does Favre actually think that he will be released for nothing?

Of course not. The letter just a formailty to make himself look good.

Thats inferering a lot. We don't know anything about that.

Well, then you can't say he hasn't been able to go consistently becuase he hasn't been a starter and had to go consistently. Saying he can't is inferring a lot too.

No, its not inferring anything.

It is a proven fact that he broke his foot in his first extended action. It is also a proven fact that he had a mild tear of a hamstring during or in the first minutes of the following practice after his second limited action.

Those are the facts. How is that inferring at all?

You are inferring he can't go consistantly. You don't know if he can becuase he hasn't been put in that situation yet.

When given the opportunity to play, he has gotten hurt. That is a fact, and there is no way to twist it into anything else.

Look ya tard, he was hurt in 1 of the 7 games he's gotten into. He got hurt a second time 2 days after playing about a 1/2. Its ok to hate on Thompson and Rodgers all you want, but you cant call people out for making shit up when you do it just as much.

So should we expect him to get hurt over 2-4 times this year (enough to miss a game).

With Brett you ran a near 0% risk of him missing time... with ARod you run almost a 25% chance that he'll miss a game week-week (including practices).

Hard to overturn a franchise and bank a future on that... heck, look at the Bears and how many QBs they've went through. I think you get a man crush on ARod after he's done something worthwhile.

Mop-up duty when the hounds are off does not count. He has seen legit action 3 times imo. And he was truly beyond awful against the Ravens.

Favre camp heard from again. Mooch on NFL Network

http://www.profootballtalk.com/2008/...-ready-to-play

Money quote:

Mariucci said “there’s been a little lack of communication between Favre’s camp and the Packers organization,” and he suggested that Favre hasn’t been happy with a perception that the Packers want to move forward without him.

This is like covering the campaign. Now I want to see the video to watch if Mooch has to explain why Favre backed out of unretiring in March.
