White was a hired gun at the right time. Favre was in fact the heart and soul of the team
He had best 3 seasons by a q.b ever...I defended him to no end on other forums, was even a mod on his own personal forum, and I had the rode colored glasses on ll the time...
I never ever wanted to think he was anything other than great..I even faxed letters into GB to make Ted bring him back..
After he was gone, I stepped back and looked at how he played judged on just performance since the Super Bowls.
Once 1999 rolled around he was average at best
So while we can not forget what he did for the team, the fans and the city, he also should not get free pass for how average he was after those Super Bowls..
From 1999 till he did retire
24 tds per year
20 ints per year
winning % 59
food for thought
Jay Cutler for career
19 tds a year
14 ints per year
56 wins and 48 losses winning %53
So people want to applaud Brett for how "good" he was from 99 till he retired? I am willing to bet that those same people would not take Jay Cutler
Brett's playoffs after 99
playoffs
4-6
19 tds

He wasnt the huge super star people thought he was from 99 on..
I didnt even mention the whole issue from 08....Just want on pure stats
