Countdown #36: Worst Brett Favre Collapses


Interesting that 7 of these 10 performances came since 2001. This would seem to indicate a player in decline.

I have a feeling the Favre cult will not repsond to this thread.

[Bretsky]

Who is keeping track of the threads started relating to Favre ? I don't really care enough anymore to read any of them...but
Chalk another one up on the score card

Damn you're persistent. You even went and started a thread to bolster your post count on the subject. How can I compete with that, after so vehemently stressing the fact that I don't start threads about the Favre deal. You win, but you cheated.

I don't think he's been around in a while; hopefully he doesn't leave cuz he was a sound poster.........but I still think his scorecard was jaded

To be honest, the number of threads started by the Anti Favre group should be far more than the people who have not thrown Favre under the bus. Because percentage wise it appears that people seemed to be lined up in much greater numbers waiting for more buses

As usual I'm in the minority

I ran through it quickly the first time. Then I read it again, and it was a pretty interesting read. But painful. I like the stories of his comebacks better. And thankfully there are more of those.

We're catching up.

You know as soon as Favre officially becomes a Viking there will be 3 new threads started by Mobb alone, as well as countless others. We'll be so deep in the hole we won't be able to see above ground.

When you've played as many games as he has and as many seasons, it's easy to disect them any way u want to make it look.. It just gives CPK and SC some good feeling that over 16 years of service, Favre like any human.. Had his share of bad games...

I know everybody would disagree; but Mobb should have his own scorecard.
He's really on his own level of extemeness

Glad you are still around.....when you do a recount I bet you'll find it's at least 5-3 in favor the anti's

The last couple of weeks it has been. Overall... Well, maybe if Mobb has his own scorecard.

To be fair, Freeman shouldn't have dropped that pass in the Super Bowl. I wonder how differently Favre's career turns out if they go on to win that game.

[Fritz]

This just kills me:

"Favre belongs in that exclusive group because no one performed better in the clutch.... Joe Montana was brilliant in Bill Walsh's West Coast offense, but if there's a minute left on the clock and my team needs to go 80 yards for a score, give me Favre."

WTF? Brett Favre was a lot of things, but picking him over Montana if you had two minutes left and needed the score? I mean, yes, Favre would be better than Joey Harrington or maybe Phillip Rivers even and I'm not saying he was awful, but he is not the guy you'd pick from any all-time list as the QB to take your team down the field with two minutes left.

Montana would be far and away my first choice. He had this sense of the game, like he was watching it from above. He knew exactly what the situation was at all times, and he seemed to see the whole field. Favre seemed to have that quality at times, then at other times he seemed to freak out a little and force a play that didn't need to be forced.

Based on my own sad history as a Packer fan, Steve Young seemed to be pretty good at the last-minute stuff, too. I think though I have no numbers that Peyton Manning is the type of QB who would be good at this sort of thing.

I'd be curious to hear what other old-time QB's had this quality.

Unitas and Elway come to mind. Not sure about Otto Graham, but his teams won at a ridiculous rate.

[Badgerinmaine]

Ask anyone who lives in Cleveland about John Elway's comeback ability...

I have no axe to grind, but I would say that part of why someone can write a top ten list like that is because of the length of Brett Favre's career and that his teams were usually in the playoffs or in contention for them. There's just an awful lot of big games to pick from there.
