    Is there really any doubt that Favre will be enshrined in the HoF? Even if he breaks both TD and INT records, or doesn't make the TD record and sticks around to do it next year, he'll get in. He's got to simply based on his "Ironman Stat" (started 200+ games...I don't remember the exact amount).

    He is the blessing and the curse of the Packers. He has been the face of one of the most effective teams of the last decade. He'll make it. Z's just talking trash to get readers.

      No one in their sane mind would say Brett isn't a HOFer - the question was - is Brett a first ballot HOFer? A distinction in and of itself (like the cream of the crop).

      Dr. Z says he would vote for Brett on his first ballot.

        Man that was a piece of garbage article. Couldn't even finish it. It would be an insult to my ass to print it then use it for TP.

        This guy is why I don't ever bother going to SI.com. He is always talking waste like this. Is he the same Dr. Z that comes out on the car commercials?

          Yep, garbage article.

          But I do think Brett will make the HOF on the 1st ballot.

              The only debate that should inculde brett is whether hes the best Qb to ever play, not whether hes even good enough for the hall. This guy is a @@@@en retard.

                No. The guy on the Chrysler commercials is Chrysler Chairman Dieter Zetsche playing a role of an annoying asshole (it is a total flop, BTW).

                Dr Z went to Columbia and played football with my old boss. His "Thinking Man's Guide to Pro Football" is easily one of the best books ever written on the subject. That said, he is proof positive that you can be very knowlegeable about a subject and still form absolutely stupid opinions about a topic.

                Brett Favre is why they have a HOF. He's a sure fire HOFer. Whether or not they vote him in on the 1st ballot should be a topic for discussion in 2012 or 2013. I'll wait until then to worry about it.

                  Good to see you, KY.

                  I agree with your statement 100%. Dr Z's article had an odd beginning which led to most Packer fans skipping/skimming through the rest of the text. But Z does say he'd vote for Brett on the 1st ballot - I'll take that with some criticism of last year (poor running game, lots of injuries, lots of att/int, close losses, new/inexperienced team). He'll solidify his career this year - and take the Pack back to the playoffs w/ a wild card game.

                  Then, in 2012/13 he'll be there no question.

                    Haha, I know he isnt the same Dr. Z. I was just trying pointing out that they are both arrogant bastards.

                    He done solidified it long ago!! Thats the part of the article Im bashing!

                    I was looking up the season records for Elway (who got in on the first ballot) and he had a losing season in 1990 (5-11) so why did he get in so fast?

                      Yeah - I meant 'finalize' and end it this year. I'd say Brett is better than Elway but Elway won two Superbowls in a row and ended on a high note (with the most wins as a QB). Often people will only remember the beginning and end of a player's career - despite a magnificent 14 years in between...

                      I'll say Brett starts all the games and ends with an untouchable consecutive start streak. He'll beat Marino's records (except yards and career wins) and be considered one of the top 3 all-time.

                        He plays another 2 decent-good seasons and he will have all the QB records. Check it out on Packers.com

                        He is already top3 according to those stats.

                          Who knows? If he goes to the playoffs, it may be good enough for one more year. I don't think he cares for just playing for records (except the streak). If the Pack has an average year, I could see him retiring. If by some small chance, the Pack wins the SB - he'll definitely call it over.
