[QUOTE="Texpackerfan, post: 307820, member: 3380"] [b]McCarthy wanted to bench Favre at halftime 2008 NFC championship game[/b] I hope those will forgive me for posting about about a horrible loss that happened 3 years ago but I heard something on a Green and Gold Podcast that I thought was somewhat interesting. And hey, it's the offseason. Jason Wilde (I think) said that he heard that MM was so ticked at Favre after the first half he was thinking of benching Favre and putting in Rodgers. I don't know if it's true or not but it's kind of neat to think Rodgers could have played and quite possibly have gone to the SB. Also, Jason, made a comment that if that was true, it gives more credence to the fact that when Favre "retired" it gave them an opportunity to go with Rodgers. So with that, I thank Favre for retiring then. On a side note: NFL network showed one of the "greatest" games and it was about the 2008 NFC championship game. While that loss probably was quite possibly the worst loss because I thought they were going to win since they were at home. But, it's nice watching Woodson, MM, Driver, and Tauscher talk about how bad that loss was and [I]knowing [/I]that in a just a few years, those guys WILL win a SB. Watching that game show gives me a feeling of redemption for them. [/QUOTE]
