I guess i'm just not too excited about having a QB who gets hurt so easily after going 16 years with the "Iron Man" Favre

I think the reason they aren't letting Favre compete is because the already told Rogers he is the man. They had a plan laid down to move on without Favre, because they thought he was retired. Clearly they are ready to begin the post-Favre era.
