[QUOTE="Arles, post: 150754, member: 786"] Just an FYI, if you had paid a QB $27 million in 05 and 06 and he averaged these numbers: 19 TDs, 24 INTs and a rating of 71 Would you be happy with that player starting 2007 at a cap figure of $13 million? Favre has had a great career for GB and did some great things in the mid 90s and up to 2003. But since that time, he has held this organization hostage and he has hurt the team's chances for success in 04-08. Think of the things we could have done with that $26 million the past two seasons: 1. Gone out and paid for an elite FA QB like Drew Brees and still had some money left over to improve other areas. 2. Put Rodgers in the fire and seen what he can do. If he succeeded, great. If not, we could have used our 2006 pick on Matt Leinart and then used the $26 million to improve the WR, LB, DB and RB spots in the past two offseasons. Does anyone really think we are better off now (with a 38-year old Favre) than had we gone for option 1 or 2 during the past 2-3 offseasons? Between his performance, salary, waiting for him to commit and the inability to get any other QB time, this organization has sacrifaced a ton for Favre in the past 2-3 seasons with really nothing to show for it. So for him to come out and now act with indignation towards the organization is a joke, IMO. [/QUOTE]
