[QUOTE="Thirteen Below, post: 1036419, member: 18006"] I don't think it hurt, but it wasn't anywhere near the deciding factor. Brett Favre wasn't really Brett Favre yet; just a kid with some potential. All anyone knew about him at that point was that he was a talented quarterback with a hell of an arm but a questionable head. He started 13 games the year before Reggie signed, going 8-5 with 18 TDs and 13 INT, 85.3 QB rating. I seriously doubt that resume was a dealmaker for White, but at the same time, he could see that the kid had talent and might someday be a pretty good quartherback. He was also very impressed with how tough and determined Favre was. Philadelphia played the Packers in 92, and Favre had a decent game, but what Reggie noticed was the Eagles' defensive line beat the hell out of this young kid and it did not faze him one bit. That counted a lot for Reggie. It was Wolf and Holmgren who blew him away and made him want to be a part of what these guys were trying to build. [/QUOTE]
