[QUOTE="America, post: 247485, member: 454"] 1) It was a 14-4 season, not 14-3. 2) I love it when people celebrate ignorance as a good thing. "I don't know what the Football Scientist has to say". 3) You'd like to know the rationale for getting rid of Favre after a 14-4 season? Simple. The Packers felt that the team deserved a quarterback who could make a full-time committment to the team. Additionally, his late season fades had not gone unnoticed by the brass or his teammates, most of whom wanted to see Rodgers get his chance. And third, ultimately the team decided that they'd be a better team with Aaron Rodgers than they would with Favre. 4) I love how you give Favre all the credit for taking the Jets from 4-12 to 9-7, totally ignoring the contributions of others. And you apparently don't recall that the season before that the Jets were 10-6 and in the playoffs and that the 4-12 season was riddled with injuries. So in a very real sense, Favre helped a 10-6 team achieve a 9-7 record. You gloss over his season ending fade. You gloss over the fact that his teammates weren't entirely happy with his "I'll just chuck it up" attitude because they felt it was unfair to them. 5) Facts: He'll be 40. He's coming off injury and surgery. He led the league in interceptions (again). He missed all the OTAs and minicamp and most of training camp. He's statistically one of the worst downfield passers in the NFL. He's statistically the most turnover prone QB in the league. He's had terrible fades at the end of the last 5 seasons. We're going to squash this bug in a serious and permanent way and I'm going to love every minute of it as both he and the Vikings suffer through a season of Hell. [/QUOTE]
