Favre Back for Another Year

SmootSmack · 02-02-2007, 12:59 PM

He's returning in 2007

Wow, no 3-month soap opera this year?

I wonder if it had anything to do with Rodger's broken leg.

Most likely, Favre will keep playing until he's injured so badly that he can't anymore, whether his performance merits another year or not. I don't forsee a pretty ending to his career...he's already past his good years and just won't give up. I admire the work ethic and passion, but he's going to embarrass himself by staying around too long.

I thought Farve look better this year and he had a very young team. He passed for over 3800 yards and had 18 TD's and only 18int's. LOL but most of his int's came when his team was way down and he was trying to make something happen. Thats one thing I do like about Farve is when his team is down and out he will take those chances and try to get lucky with some big plays instead of rolling over.

I definately thought Favre looked pretty good. Granted, his TD-INT ratio isn't the best, but neither are his wideouts (or his O-line). Moreover, Favre understandably takes a lot of chances when he is playing from behind. Unfortunately, Green Bay's defense is bad enough that he is often playing catch-up.

Me too. I think he should keep playing until he isn't good anymore. That didn't happen last year. He is still good.

He had himself a nice bounce back season last year. I don't see how he's embarrassing himself at all.

I don't think he'll hang on too long. You can tell he's on the brink as it is, I'd give him 1 more year, 2 tops.

Favre's a great example of how old QB's don't just "lose it". Usually they decline steadily after their tenth season, but most guys could honestly play at a respectable level until age 40 if they wanted to.

Chances are 2007 Favre is going to be slightly worse than 2005 and 2006 Favre, but winning is all about how well your team plays on any given Sunday, and that Packer squad is probably the 2nd best team in their division.

I'm kind of glad he's coming back. I've always wanted to visit Lambeau and I will this year and get to see him play.

When and why are you going and where are you staying?

dmek25 · 02-02-2007, 03:27 PM

favre is a good guy( at least it seems) and could still be very productive, on a good team. as stated earlier, playing from behind isnt any qbacks best friend

TheMalcolmConnection · 02-02-2007, 03:28 PM

I have this thing about visiting historic stadiums all over the country. I DESPISE the Yankees and Red Sox, and both stadiums are on my list. Already been to Fenway, so Yankee Stadium is next on my list.

Sounds stupid I know, but if there's anything historical that I enjoy, it's sports history.

Don't know the details yet, but of course it'll be during football season. And of course, I'll be rocking my Skins gear anyway.

Well the Skins do visit Lambeau this year...

Just sayin.

TheMalcolmConnection · 02-02-2007, 04:18 PM

OH SHIT. I totally forgot that. That would be one hell of a road trip to go to.
