Really, when you think about it there is 6 degrees of separation w/ about any team. It's just all guessing-conjecture at this point.

Favre played for Holmgrem-Zorn coached for Holmgren-therefore Favre must be going to the redskins.

and you can't depend on Farve.

here is a man who has never missed a start since he's been a starting qb in the league,and you say he is not dependable?i think there are 4 certain things in life,death,
taxes,sleep,and bret favre starting at qb no matter what his physical condition is.

You're missing my point. What team in the NFL is going to want to do a one year or bust type of deal when they've already put all the work towards getting the current starter ready? So far no one. And that includes us. That's one of the reasons GB doesn't want him back. Rogers has been there all off season busting his ass and they think he's ready to become an NFL starter.

All Farve would do is set us back one more year. I feel this is the year we find out if JC has what it takes to start in the NFL. If he does then we can extend his contract if not then we need to start looking for that guy. Farve is a one year deal and if JC was just picked in the draft and we needed someone to fill in for a year or two then I'd be real happy to see us go after him but its just not the case.

No. I like the fact that our #1 and #3 QBs are young, and Zorn will be teaching them how to play the WCO from the ground up. I can't imagine Zorn teaching Favre anything at this point.

I'm really excited about this offense after having suffered through numerous losses when we stopped trying to score with a lead in the 2nd half. If Zorn is anything, I expect him to be aggressive.

well said. as risky as this hire was, one thing i don't think we'll see is that conservative ass play calling we've seen the last 4 years.

Sorry not buying it.

I've never had the chance to say this.....but this is a special occasion.

Sign him for the vet-minimum!

It is getting old and really it is putting a poor light on his career. Why is he bashing GB now?

Sounds like someone needs to learn to grow up and realize the NFL and GB are bigger then him.

I hope he never comes here.

I really have to agree with this.

I have been staying away from these threads because I didn't want to say negative things about Favre since Favre has done such great things for football. But I gotta say, what he's doing now is tarnishing my image of him.

I really don't want to get too deep into this cause I think it would be a complete mistake, but in the spirit of discussion, and pure curiousity, what price would "the right price" in your mind?
