There was a time I considered myself fortunate to have been able to see Favre play in person (at BOA). He was undeniably one of the best ever. Then, when after his retirement, he assisted another team in attempting to beat the Packers that changed everything. There were a lot of fans in Green Bay that loved and supported him, even through his wishy washy retirement decision making. I am surprised that we did not hear more from them about that. I think he should be disqualified from the Hall of Fame for that. Imagine if Beuerlein had done that.

I would have loved to see Tarkenten play as well. He was me favorite when he played.

Favre is a media *****. He needs the attention to feed his own self absorption.

I will retire...I won't retire...I will retire...I won't retire. He wants ESPN falling all over him and wants teams fawning all over him.

He is washed up...has been for several seasons.

His last season in Green Bay....he was great for 8 games, then sucked the last 8. He sucked the season before that....he sucked teh last 9 games of last season.

Favre has managed a little over 1/2 season of great play in the past 3-4 years.

He is washed-up....he is now over-rated (at this stage of his career).

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
