Here's a little description of what the article does:
Brett Favre's retirement last week brought to an end the career of one of pro football's living legends -- a man who, in the eyes of many, could do no wrong. Few football fanbases are more insular and appreciative than Green Bay (logical considering the fans actually own the Packers), and for the denizens of Lambeau, Favre was a man who they trusted implicitly.
Another thing about Favre's career, though, is that his longevity means that he represents one of the few players left from the pre-NFLPA days of Madden. Favre's appeared in countless video games throughout his career -- hell, he's appeared on countless consoles. The man has been around the block a few times.
As Favre's developed himself from a upstart gunslinger with a cannon arm into a wily, grey...gunslinger with a cannon arm, simulations of him playing football have undergone a similarly absurd progression. To celebrate both, we're going to give him the same treatment we gave Michael Strahan the week before the Super Bowl, highlighting his progression and performance throughout his career and looking at how Favre looked in video games throughout the same time. In honor of his nature, we've tried to capture Favre in the same situation throughout all of the different games -- rolling out to the right, about to launch a 20-yard laser into triple coverage. Both he and Packers fans wouldn't have it any other way.
Remember that the numbering of years in video games are different than the actual years they correspond to, so when we talk about Favre's performance in the 2007 season, we'll be comparing him to what he looked like in Madden '08.
