We need the Packers to go 14-2 this year. Then Favre will have more wins than any other QB. If he goes 13-3, he'll pass Marino and be tied with Elway.
50,000 yards are nice, but I'd rather have the wins. :mrgreen:
I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't happen this game... rather more like next week against Cleveland. More importantly, I'd rather he didn't get hurt either.... Rodgers still needs to see Brett play in a real game "up close"...
The sad thing about the North is it really isn't near any larger Cities other than Chicago... The Midwest has never been known for attracting people away from the Coastal beaches, etc. Same goes with the Players... Green Bay is a great place, especially if you're a family oriented football player. If you're single, tho' - it sorta stinks. And with the two hour drive back down to Milwaukee (great place that it is)..... well, it's sorta tough tokeep getting hotel rooms all the time. Yet, Players do think about it that way....
Having said that - I'm not surprised that our Teams would end up playing "other" teams in the playoffs like they have... How many times have any of us played the Lions in the Playoffs? None, I would say... even back in the day.... I'm old enough to remember watching Tarkenton on TV... Back then, the only way we remember Detroit is if they print something up in the newspaper on Thanksgiving.
If Lovie Smith can get "two" more key players and Kyle Orton takes off (no injuries..?) -- look for the Bears to re-emerge and we'll be sitting with Aaron Rodgers at the helm.
I simply do not see Brett playing but one more year...if that.
I don't think he really cares all that much about those records at all..
They're just a part of having seniority in this League. It's about the RING!
