QB...controversy...DC?

Their entire reason for Brett Favre coming to D.C. is one very simple little connection that anyone could make and then throw into the discussion as "credible evidence".

Brett Favre plays in the WCO. Jim Zorn runs the WCO. Therefore the Skins could be interested in Favre.

That's about the least credible evidence I've heard of. That's like saying "DeMarcus Ware is an OLB in a 3-4 scheme. The Patriots run a 3-4 scheme. That's my basis for starting a 'the Patriots being interested in trading for DeMarcus Ware' rumor." There is no credibility in that whatsoever.

At least now that Schefter has reported it less people will be inclined to believe the 'Skins are interested. He's not a very credible source himself but he does carry more weight than a rumor monger like PFT.

I would say that few sources out there are more credible than Schefter

Well the entire reason I said he wasn't that credible was because in the past, back when I actually used to watch NFLN just to hear what his inside sources were telling him, he wasn't always spot on with his information and his predictions didn't always come true. He hears a lot of the rumors out there but sometimes they were almost completely wrong. I do take most of his word for the most part, unless he says something that absolutely nobody else is saying, in which case I wait until I hear it from most of the other sources out there before I'll believe there's more truth than rumor behind it.
