    Thing is...Favre made two ridiculous throws for TDs to win 2 of those games. In the NFL, you win by scoring TDs...not settling for a FG when you are down 1 or 2 points.

    Rodgers hasn't looked good late in games...he's made poor decisions, but the rest of the offense is to blame as well for poor play. My point would simply be that a proven legend like Favre really takes pressure off everyone else...and gives guys confidence that they WILL win, no matter what.

    Sorry, but I just don't see the same thing from the offense when Rodgers is in there yet. Doesn't mean he won't get there eventually...but it is a chink in his armor at the moment.
    Agreed to all your points...Arod is good, but to go to the next level, he needs to make us (much more his teammates) think we have a chance late. I'd like to see some QB ratings for the 4th QT as I'm not blaming ARod why we are 5-9 (too many reasons in players, coaching, some injuries) yet he's got a good QB rating, but saw too many games with my buddies where he threw a late game pick, poor execution, etc. to be considered one of the best QB's right now. I think with time it will happen, but he has disappointed big-time in clutch-time.

    Yes Favre has had 17 years to accumulate many late drives, but does anyone remember his first experience as a Packer, yes he won that game....Timeless classic that I remember being #1 on Sterling Sharpe's fan club as a very young Pack fan (and Sharpe was hurt when HE (god...sorry Favre) did this in his 1st game. Hope we see more of this, as this is my only barb on ARod till he does it....This is why we worship (some still do) Favre.....Arod's had 13 games, but where is this spark? This shit wins games. I like Arod, but I doubt he'll EVER be able to do what Favre did in his 1st Packer game. This shit wins games. 17/18 seasons without a losing record speaks for itself.....ARod seems just "too cool" and content, not a lot of fire/drive that I've seen thus far. I'm sure he likes to win, but Brett took that shit on his shoulder at 21 or 39....it's all on him..."Only God Can Judge me Now"...maybe I'm wrong, but hey...I don't get the feeling with ARod...that we have a CHANCE!! Only God can judge me.



    I like the quotes: "Is there a spark in GB? Yes. GB has the look of a winner with the gunslinger, #4." This is what is missing. Please y'all, I'm not trying to say ARod is bad, he's good, but damn what a timeless classic this is....At 39 he's leading a new O from 4-12 to division winners...fuck. This is the fire we need. Who cares about his drama, he wins/won us games. I hope this season is just the sorry excuse of an abortion of TT's will, yet I don't know, Favre haters may miss him more than they think. Just win baby. I always had the feeling (whether he threw a long TD or a pick) we had a chance late, not so much with ARod EVER in 13 games....we'll see where that goes in the next few seasons, right? Do you get the feeling late (blame the D...we had a chance on late drives 7 times to win)...

    This is NOT a rip on Arod so much as what we gave up to an AFC team. Sad to say an old 39 year old QB is the difference (yes the D and RB's are good, but look at his track reacord) in a 4-12 season to AFC contender and we go to shit with a "good" QB in his own right. It's not fair to rip Arod, but Brett would have led us to the playoffs. We have NO leaders. That is so fucking underrated as a team....NO leaders. Who leads this team? Oh well, good picks for TT, right? TT has no personal skills with his team (as this shit is underrated..I worked 8 years at my job and finally the GM was ousted being a outstanding dick) yet I'm still there as the senior peep at my firm. TT's firm tenure is numbered. M3 is a good coach. They all fucked up. Favre (drama or not) would have gotten us into the playoffs in 2008. Do not EVER shortchange sheer will. Arod is lacking in that.

    Snake's Twitter comments would be LEGENDARY.........if I was ugly or gave a shit about Twitter.
