OMG! Brett Farve a Colt??

May make sense if Peyton and his neck isn't ready to go opening day! You won't see Farve the entire season, and Manning on the bench!

But would Farve sign for the league minimum, just to play maybe 3 games?

Colts have done crazier things. Brought Mark Rypien out of retirement to mentor Peyton early in his career. Signed Don Majkowski when he was washed up at Green Bay. When you have nothing buy inexperienced QB's behind Peyton Manning, who knows.

I really have mixed feeling over this. One good thing is that John Madden isn't around to do SNF!

I could hear John now. "OH! Peyton missed that throw. You know who wouldn't have missed that throw? Brett Farve, that's who! Brett Farve, would have laid it right in there!" :svengo:

Sort of funny how the media keeps saying they hate talking about Brett Favre yet they wont stop lol.

They won't stop, because of threads like these.

Public interest in the guy keeps the counters moving on webpage clicks, which is tracked by media rating advertisers. They keep talking about him, and people keep turning their heads.

Eventually, interest will wane. But they are trying to ride that pony until it dies.

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
