What if Favre pulls an Elway

[mraynrand]

Is Favre a traitor because he didn't agree with Thompson that he should retire?

Not at all.

Favre's a traitor for burning all the bridges on the way out of town.

I take your point.

I do think the Vikes defense is good enough to get the super bowl. They're leading the league in sacks, probably a result of playing the turnstyle in GB twice, but still... pretty good. They have as good of a DL as there is in the NFL. Maybe NY has a better one.

I feel like you can take away the NO offense if you can get to Brees. They don't have a lights out runner. With Minne its kind of pick your poison.

I know you have checked the stats but do you realize NO has the 3rd best run offense in the league?

I did not know that, but I still question there D. I'm not ready to crown them.

He can't pull an Elway. Elway wasn't a traitor.

I think somewhere along the line you have to ask yourself if you think Favre should have retired following the 2007 season. The Packers didn't want him after all the dithering and the Dec. fades, but was the guy finished? He didn't look finished yesterday - or any day so far this year - or last year before he got injured. IF you're Brett Favre, and you don't like the whole training camp routine, you don't much like the offseason workouts any more, but you can still play on Sunday, and you can find a team with shitty QBs that wants you more than they want you to toe the line, why wouldn't you still play? Is Favre a traitor because he didn't agree with Thompson that he should retire?

I still remember the "look" on Favre's face in the 2007 NFCC game in Lambeau. Granted it was horribly cold, but he looked like he did not want to be there.

If the goal of every team is to secure home field advantage in the playoff's, then you need a quarterback that can play effectively in frigid conditions in Green Bay in January.

Favre used to be that guy, but not anymore. BUT, he is perfect to play for a team that plays the majority of its games in a hermetically sealed 67 degree environment. with no wind or rain issues

...he actually DID...

Yesterday Favre broke elway's record for yards in a stadium

Jacked-up that he had to do it as a Vike!

Set another record with Marino: number of 4 td games
