Message: <blockquote data-quote="Seahawks1986" data-source="post: 257889" data-attributes="member: 1934">This is my first post love your forums. I am a Seahawks fan, born from a Chiefs family, a Mike Holmgren fan, a Marty Schottenheimer fan, a Brett Favre fan, a Rich Gannon fan, a Steve Hutchinson Fan, a Jim Zorn fan, and a fan of the 3-4 Falcon D. Now down to business.1992-Present Favre has 1 losing season with 3 different Teams as their starting QB.2008-Present Rodgers has 1 losing season and may break Favre's record for losing seasons in record time.2008 Favre takes a 4 win team to 9-72008 Rodgers takes a 13 win team to 6-10Beyond the sack problem that Rodgers has he is unable to win when down in the 4th Quarter. This is a very serious problem, not because he is just not clutch, more because he is hopeless in that situation. Rodgers failed to comeback 7 out of 7 times in 2008. He has won 1 in the 4th quarter that I personally watched in the 2009 season, and I have watched him fail in 4th quarter as well this season.What Favre and Greg Lewis accomplished against the 49ers I do not believe Rodgers could ever do. Instead I believe Rodgers would have been sacked instead of stepping up into the pocket making the defender miss only clutching his jersey for a moment as he makes a great throw accompanied by a HOF catch. The vikings would be undefeated if not for a tripping penalty which took a TD back and was followed by 2 turnovers for TD's. I didn't agree with the call, but Football is not often a fair sport.Personally I think if Rodgers survives he will be one of the great QB's in an era which will be without Manning, Brady, Favre, McNabb, Hasselbeck etc... for those QB's will soon be gone. However, if I had to choose between a QB who is afraid to make a mistake but is insanely talented but cannot win games, or a QB who takes too many risks and makes big plays both good and bad ones, but will always put you in a position to compete for the Big game and even win one no matter how good or bad the team is overall I take the latter.Do you really think Favre has played for the greatest Players and Coaches every year? Personally I believe it has more to do with leadership than anything else. When players are drafted to the Packers they cannot wait to play next to one of the greatest players of all time, meeting him is a dream come true for them. How many people who get drafted knowing Rodgers is the QB think that? Do players families ask how is it playing next to Rodgers? I think that mentality has always favored GB.The day came when it was time to move on, sadly it all went to hell. The Packers were in the Dark Ages when Lombardi left, Favre came and they basked in the light for nearly 2 decades. Favre is gone and it seems signs point to a return of those Dark Ages.Favre > RodgersWhen Rodgers proves to be more than a potential great QB the comparisons can become valid. Favre is one of the greatest NFL players of all time. Every game I have watched has been special when he plays, even when he was throwing snowballs in the playoffs as he beat the snot out of my Seahawks. When his time is officially done it will be a great loss to the NFL.There is my take on the situation of Favre v.s. Rodgers.</blockquote>
