[QUOTE="Quientus, post: 263501, member: 1834"] Again you are taking the stats out of context ... - Yes according to the spread sheet (if we ONLY look at Favre's stats), December is his worst "statwise" (that is) month ... BUT ! and this is a HUGE But ... - Then you would also have to agree that Favre should be labelled as having "October-slumps" as well ... Since his ratings (statistically) drops in this month as well ... And how exactly did October play out this season ??? My point being, stat's taken out of context can always be "manipulated" to show whatever you want them to show ... That was the exact reason why I posted the comparisons to other "Top Tier" quarterbacks as well in the other [URL="http://www.packerforum.com/packer-fan-forum/18906-some-statistics-ponder-about.html"]thread[/URL] , to "broaden" the picture so to speak ... And that is the reason why I don't agree nor buy into the "December Slump" nor "Favre can't play in the cold anymore", theory ... As I said earlier ... *IF* it were only Favre who had stats that went "up and down" during the latter half of the season, then perhaps, I would be more inclined to agree with you ... However as is, as also show by statistics, it doesn't seem to so ... ALOT of other factors weighs in on those stats as the other quarterbacks stats will tell anyone ... Or are half the leagues quarterbacks all having "December slumps" all of a sudden (well, with the exception of Romo LOL) ??? Ratings and stats doesn't give a full picture, however anyone can always [U][I][B]choose[/B][/I][/U] to look at it like that ... - Which is evident by another "stat", that Rodgers (ex.) has had declining stats (also) during the latter part of the season, but actually been performing much better in the games, as opposed to earlier in the season where Rodgers had much higher (personal) stats, but the team was performing poorly ... Or how would you explain that ? As for the "Cold Weather Syndrome" .. - Well actually the same logic applies here ... - Those that seem to support this notion, always points to the Giants game as "proof" that Favre can't play nor likes playing in the cold anymore ... - And (yet again) totally disregarding the game (against Seattle) that was played the week before under similar conditions ... Chances are that the way those two games unfolded, most likely had more to do with the players (and Favre's) expressions during the game, than the cold weather itself ... But since the Vikings lost at Soldier Field, and as Favre said himself during the press conference, that loss will be "chalked" into the "Favre can't play football in cold weather" category ... - And that should probably also be labelled on the Raven's who lost at Heinz Field against Pittsburgh ...
