I hear some fans out there are calling the team the Green Bay Favre's.

Yeah, Madden was on Sports Talk 980 talking about Favre's number and how we should just replace the number four with the number Farve accross the board... One, Two, Three, Farve... becuase he is "that important" .. ha ha..

Only John Madden. Brett's personal PR firm.

Okay, so tell me this isn't arrogant.

Brett was quoted as saying, Aaron should be the starting quarterback right now...but I'm going to practice my butt off....and we all know what the end result will be.

Brett was quoted as saying, Aaron should be the starter right now, because he's been ou their the longest. But we know when I get back on the field (paraphrased) what the end result will be.

Hmmm. I would say he's confident, and I don't blame him. The man is a great QB.

Well, it is the truth.

Someone saying that Favre and Rogers are going to compete for the job is a joke anyway. We all know who would win, so why tip toe around it?

Great QB but I am SO over this whole thing. The media have beat this thing to death. I dealt with it for a while and it didnt bother me as much but when I seriously CANT watch a sports channel without hearing "Brett Favre" every other word, it hurts.

Exactly. I watched the scrimmage they had on NFLN last night and the 1st team Offense vs 2nd team defense, Aaron Rodgers looked like hell. He completed a screen or two but for the most part, they were anemic.

I'm pretty sure Favre has the job.

I just hate it when the sports media claims to hate the coverage just as much as we do... as they cut away from the Redskins game to show Brett stepping off a plane.

I KNOW! WTF is that. Saying they hate all the coverage it the biggest lie in history. I mean, there's a game on. The first REAL football in months, but, wait, wait a minute, this just in, we might've shown this clip 6,000 times already but, 45 minutes ago Brett Favre got off a plane somewhere!

lol

You know this is going to being interesting to see how the Packers respond to this. Will they rise and overcome this adversity...escpecially after Rogers loses his first game or throws his first interception.

It will be interesting to see how they rally around Rogers.

MTK · 08-05-2008, 02:08 PM

I think regardless of how this plays out, it's going to be a season long distraction for the Packers. It's going to be tough to overcome it.

Or if they rally at all? I think the pressure of seeing them lose games with Rodgers at the helm with Favre on the bench would be a little much.
