Teammates 'moving forward' with Favre

[Pacopete4]

I wouldn't bet on that if I were you.

I am not a betting man and I would... just reported that it will be a competition after all and the QB's (all of them) will get a schedule of what they are doing this week

Did Favre have the right to change his mind, of course he did but that does not mean he SHOULD have or that the Packers SHOULD change thiers. Commitments, when made, are never meaningless.

Yet if the Packers DO change theirs, why should you care? Don't you want the Packers to put the best team on the field...and if that means Favre is the QB, so be it.

I'm fine with Rodgers being the "starting" QB right now. I also fully understand that who the "starting" QB is right now is pretty meaningless in terms of who will be the "starting" QB when the season begins.

My viewpoint is that if Favre wants to play, there isn't really a great reason for Green Bay to not want him to play...as long as he proves himself on the field in camp.

Umm, you are going off on a tangent here Leaper. I was comparing the Favre situation to that of Strahan's. Committment was the difference between the two, regardless what Favre is going to do here. The Packers most certainly have the right to change thier minds, but they don't have to. The Giants had not made up thier minds in the first place, so they didn't make a decision they'd have to change. That's what I was trying to get at. The situations are not the same and should not be compared to each other.

I'm with you that the QB who gives the Packers the best chance to win should be on the field. I'm just hoping that guy is Rodgers.

Then McCarthy turely is a gutless weasel. I have no respect for the man anymore.

Or maybe he's just trying to win games by putting the best player on the field?? Just maybe???

NO hes a used car salesman. He can take his team committment and cram it.

Rogers will have 5 accrued seasons after the 2009 season. If his contract expires at the end of 2009, he will be unrestricted when his contract expires (5 or more years of service in an uncapped year).

That's what I thought. In all likelihood, he'll be an UFA after the 2009 season.

That's the way I see it (after screwing my head back on straight! )

Personally, I could give a rats ass about "team commitment" because no matter whos on this team and playing where.. i want a mother fuckin super bowl trophy this season, and the next, and the next, and so on.. personally I believe Brett gives us a better chance at that.. so I want him back starting.. thats all this comes down to

Well you won't get any in the future becuase management killed that.

Favre will be gone soon and seeing as there isn't anything behind him anymore since Rodgers won't be here either Id say yes, they killed that.

We didnt draft Brohm for no reason.... or Flynn for that matter

Its gonna take at least 3-4 years before you realisitcly get anything out of them so yes, they have set the team back that many years, all becuase of Favre's fucking ego.

Why does it have to take 3-4 years for them to be good? I didnt know there was a book on this.. if thats the case Ben Rothlesberger didn't write it

And Brohm is nowhere near Rothlesberger.

I agree.

There is no reason to expect nothing from Brohm for 3-4 years. That MIGHT turn out to be the case (who knows) but there are plenty of examples of guys drafted in similar positions who produced results much faster.
