    My concern for experience doesn't lie with the offense Harvey. I'm sure Rodgers will be fine there.

    His lack of experience standing under center and reading a defense during the regular season is my concern. Will he be able to correct diagnose what the defense is trying to do and be able to know where to go with the ball? That is where Favre has a huge advantage on Rodgers.

      Yeah...to mock you.

      Picking out a game here or a game there is STUPID. As I've maintained...Favre is a FUCKING LEGEND, so sitting here and trying to tell us how much he holds the team back is ridiculous. You don't earn a first ballot ticket to Canton by holding your team back.

        He'll have growing pains, but I don't think they'll be that pronounced. He's not some rookie. He's smart. He's been learning behind one of the best ever for 3 years. He has a head coach with a proven history for developing QBs. He has talent around him, so he shouldn't feel like he has to do it all--unless all of this media pressure gets to him.

          If he doesn't come up big against Seattle Ty, it is our last game of the season.

          Are you arguing that the Seattle playoff game has less significance than any other playoff game?

            Hopefully, he'll be as prepared as Tony Romo was after sitting on the bench for a few years.

Obviously, he didn't handle being on a bad team with poor skill position talent around him very well, but I doubt any QB would have done well. At least, he showed the heart to keep firing. A lot of guys would have protected their own stats with that team, but he was still trying to win every game--his stats be damned.
              And this is the exact BS I have a problem with and why Favre has these feelings of self entitlement. No accountability becuase "He was trying to win the game." I don't give a shit if he was trying to win the gaem. That is no excuse for dimwitted INT's. I don't care that he had trhe heart to keep firing. That kept killing the team. Absolute BS.

                NO, you are mentioning games.

                I'm suggesting that "coming up big" or "choking" or "stupid picks" perhaps should be something that can hinder a team.

                Brett is a gunslinger..and for the right team that can work...but, the team that is being created and coached by TT and MM seems to be one that doesn't play to brett's nature nor does it want to.

                Trent Dilfer won a superbowl. Brad Johnson won a superbowl. Perhaps that is the road that is best to take with this team and for the foreseable future.

                  Do you really wish that on him? I dont.

                      I'd take Rodgers putting up these numbers:

                      Sure, they've had playoff failures, but so has Favre. It's a team game, right? Maybe Rodgers could put up those numbers and then in the playoffs he shows Tom Brady-like guts.

                        Thge one you responded to with the Seattle game wasn't me. So your attempt is a FAIL. Im not the one saying he is holding the team back. Im saying the team should not give Favre what he wants after all the BS he has pulled. You seem to be fine with caving and automatically giving him the job back. Im willing to give Rodgers a chance and trust in management on this call. You refuse.
