Shanahan without Elway was basically a guy that was just good enough to keep his job every year.

WHo cares if they went 11-5 without Brady? They STILL missed the playoffs and were heavy favorites. Also, your point about McCarthy succeeding without Rodgers is invalid because you use Favre as an example. Last time I checked, Favre is one of the all-time greats, multiple MVP winner and a sure fire hall of famer. You didn't help your argument much.

Indeed, I believe wholeheartedly Favre saved McCarthy's ass from total failure with the Packers.
