Predict Favre's Season

[Chevelle2]

How do you think it will play out?

I think he will play well in the preseason, but will take about until week 4 to get acclimated into the offseason.

I see a 7-9 season with 20 touchdowns, 20 interceptions and 3500 yards.

Although, I will watch the Jets and cheer for Favre, I don't see this going well.

I see an 8-8 season with them missing the playoffs. I believe Brett will have 22 TD's, 18 INT, with 3000 yards.

As much as I like Favre, and undobtedly think Green Bay would fare much better with him as their starter, I see Favre struggling with the Jets over the course of the year.

Sixteen years in his comfort zone, and now he is completely out of it and has to learn new terminology and get use to new players without the benefit of OTA's or much time in camp.

I see about 23TD's, 3300 Yards, and 15 INT's. Decent year, very on and off from game to game.

I see the Jets winning 7-8 games and Green Bay getting the third rounder I predicted them to receive around a month ago.

I've said this on other threads: I don't think Favre will have a good year.

Bretsky has mentioned some good reasons; add to that an offseason in which Favre did not put in the time and effort he has said in the past he needs to in order to get his cranky old body to do what he wants it to do on the football field.

And I have always steadfastly maintained you can't buy or trade your way to the top just because the players you acquire have big names. And this is just what the Jets have tried to do. Woody, Fanika, Favre, and I think they've bought a couple others as well. I see it failing, and thus Favre failing as well.

Add to that my own hypothesis that Favre really isn't happy about how this turned out and that he's not going to be able to get over it emotionally, and it adds up to a season that's going to be poor.

I know you're going to slam me for this, but I get the sense he's gonna suck meatballs...He's not familiar with the offense, he's admitted he's not in as good of shape as his teammates and who's he throwing the ball to again?

They should have three good receiving options; about average there....but no depth. Laverneus Coles, Jericho Cotchery, and the first round pick at TE may be alright.

And a certain 3 time pro bowl TE.

I could see this too.

[Lurker64]

I'll say 9-7, 3000 yards. 23 TDs and 30 INTs.

He he does that they will not win 9 games.

[RIPackerFan]

The Jets have one of the easiest schedules - two games against Miami, games against Oakland, St. Louis, San Fran should all be wins - along with some non-heavyweights - KC, 2 games against Buffalo, Arizona, Denver - should produce at least an 8-8 record.

I would expect 24 TDs, 18 ints - 3800 yards.

I was basing the number of wins on the fact that the Jets have a cupcake schedule this year, playing both Wests and Miami twice. That should be 9 wins for any competent team.

[The Leaper]

The Jets do have an easy schedule...and I think the new surroundings will rejuvinate Favre to an extent.

I'm guessing he gets out of the gates slow...tough opponents and getting used to his surroundings. By week 4 or 5, I think he'll hit his stride...and put together a strong 6-8 games. THen I think he'll start to wear down when December rolls around.

23 TDs, 17 INTs, 3600 yards, 84 QB rating

I could see Rodgers in this area.

Yeah, I can see Rodgers like this

250/400
26 touchdowns
14 interceptions
3200 yards

94.58 rating.
