[QUOTE="Roadrunner, post: 3490, member: 135"] "Will be a sad, sad day for the Packers when he calls it quits." How true. But it would be stupid to think that it's not getting closer, and that the team shouldn't prepare for that day. I expect he'll be back next year (anticipating a strengthening of the defense and a significant improvement in the Pack's chance at another Super Bowl). For now I'd like to see Nall get more work, more playing time though--rather than wasting a lot of salary cap on an expensive (albeit good) QB like Brees or Hassleback this year. It'd be good for Craig, but also good for Favre, making him more durable and therefore better when he does come out on the field. I think that many of his mistakes this year are related to the increasing ability of defensive backs to read his eyes and anticipate the play. That is usually the product of distraction (perhaps related to pain from overuse), and exhaustion. Part of the reason Nall tended to do well when he was in was that the DB's hadn't learned how to read him. For that reason rotating them more often (though Nall clearly is not a starter yet, or even a majority-time QB) might well be good for both of them AND for the team. [/QUOTE]
