Favre: 'I'd have killed them'

Colleague Ed Werder emerged with some good stuff after meeting with Brett Favre and the Packers at their team hotel. Ed asked Favre about recent talk about the quarterback's arm strength suddenly being an issue, this after Favre came up short with the deep ball against Washington.

"I think it's a joke," Favre said of the arm-strength talk. "I thought, 'This is a touchdown at worst unless I totally overthrow it and it ended up a little to the left and short.' Not once did I walk off the field and say, 'You know what? This is the beginning of the end.' "

Favre even jokingly offered to take reporters outside to throw a few passes their way.

"I'd have killed them," Favre told Werder. "I might have thrown my arm out, ruined my career, but I'd have killed them. ... I'll put my arm up against anyone today."

No one can question Favre's fire at this point.

Don't bet against Favre. You'll pay, sooner or later.

What a badass.

[gbpackfan]

I love it!!! HA HA HA. And guess what, not one reporter took him up on his offer. Chicken shits!

[Maxie the Taxi]

You have to kind of wonder what effect this whole thing will have on tonight's game. Sounds like Favre will be out to prove something.

Watching Favre briefly in pre-game warm-ups he had that look in his eye. The "dude, I'm totally pissed and I'm going to kick some ass" look.

I predict 3 or more TDs.

I love that he makes me laugh.

[BallHawk]

Hmm, I don't think the press would be wise to question Favre on his "zip" again.

[MadtownPacker]

I think he killed bailey and bigmouth bly.

I think he killed bailey and bigmouth bly.

Nuthin' quite like getting TORCHED for a TD the first play of OT to shut a bigmouth up.
