[QUOTE="Zombieslayer, post: 208106, member: 627"] You know why I personally like it that he does this? It's because it's often better to do something than to do nothing. Favre has had times when he has had nothing. Look at his WRs - best ever was by far Sterling Sharpe. 2nd? I don't know. Antonio Freeman? Best TE he's ever had. Mark Chmura or Bubba Franks who both would be a long shot for even the Packers Hall of Fame. Best RB he's ever had - Ahman Green. The bad thing about the Green era was that it overlapped with Mike Sherman. As we all know, the Sherman years gave us good Os but mediocre Ds. History has shown us that good Os and mediocre Ds don't win SBs. However, good Ds and mediocre Os sometimes do win the big one. Would you prefer a QB who gets 0 INTs but 0 TDs? Sure, Favre leads the NFL in INTs. He also leads the NFL in attempts, completions, yards, and TDs. You take the good with the bad. Now, let's take a look at his INT percentage. It's 3.3%. In the Playoffs, it's 3.88%. In Super Bowls, it's only 1.45%. Let's compare that to John Elway, who some people for some odd reason think is better than Brett Favre (people need to stop smoking crack when talking about sports). His career is 3.1%, which is better than Favre. But his TD % is only 4.1 compared to Favre's 5.0. Give me the points any day of the week. Now, let's take John Elway in Super Bowls - 5.26% INTs. Ouch! Is that what we want? Joe Montana is the greatest SB QB ever to play the game. Unfortunately, I'd have to concede that as much as I love Favre. But I really think fans are ******* Favre because they expect unhumanly things from him. My first choice for a SB QB would be Joe Montana. But if I can't have Joe, I'd take Brett. We're talking about big games, right? Well, it doesn't get bigger than the Super Bowl. When we win it all this year with Brett at the helm, I hope people would get off of Favre once and for all.
