What did the Packers do wrong?
They expected an answer on Favre's plans within a reasonable time prior to draft/free agency.
They shifted their 2008 plans around a new quarterback after Favre retired and backed out of a come back plan.
They exercised their right to not release Favre...
I wouldn't rely too much on what PFT reports, especially in regards to the Packers. From what I understand Florio is from MN and is a Vikings fan.
Besides this was the same guy that mockingly used the terms "Lord Favre" to describe the manner in which Favre went about his retirment antics in...
The part that I find most interesting (and perhaps telling) is:
* Feb. 22 - Sometime during the scouting combine Thompson calls Favre because he had heard reports that the quarterback was mad he hadn't called him. "I called him and he said, 'Well I don't know where you're getting that from...
This could be the best solution yet. It is from Railbird Central.
Thinking out loud
There could be one scenario where Brett Favre can peaceably come back to the Packers.
Of course, the biggest obstacle to that possibility is the development of Aaron Rodgers. Tom Silverstein of the...
The team this year has been geared around Rodgers style of play and it is different from that of Favre. McCarthy said so himself when comparing Favre's best route progressions to that of Rodgers.
I suppose that it would not be too late to retool back to Favre but that means a lot of what has...
Intersting that 77% of this forum community would NOT put Favre automatically back in as the starter. I wonder if Favre and company is gauging his comeback plan on leaked "rumors". Politics is everywhere.
I was on record 4 years ago (after 4th and 26) saying that I didn't think Favre could get to another SB. I'm not saying that I blamed him for that loss, either, but he certainly was a factor as was he in the loss to the Giants with plenty of opportunities to put the game away and with the...
I'm familiar with this site that this article came from Pack93z. Are you sure the article was authored by a "former scout" and not just an opinionated blogger? Just curious.
Rodgers seems a bit edgy in the interview but I suppose that should be expected.
I was suprised to hear him say that the only people that he's playing for is the team (the fans should be right up ther IMO). Makes one wonder if he's been getting some flack in GB and elsewhere. He also...
I've been trying to be a Buc's fan (second team only) since 1990 but just can't get it done. I have season tickets and I've never sat in my seats. In fact, I've only been to two games since 1980 that weren't featuring our Packers!
Unlike PackinSteel, I do not like Gruden. Most people in...
