Title: Where Will Brett Farve Land?
Post by: ethurst2 on July 13, 2008, 03:24:30 pm
There's not too many choices or scenarios for Brett Farve to come back. The only team that I see him quarterbacking for is the team that he started with.

The Atlanta Falcons.

I think the Falcons need a quarterback and Farve would be a hour plane ride from home.

Jets, Dolphins, 49ers, Texans? No. They are going with the youth movement at QB.

Can't see him playing for the Bears. I guess that's why the GM doesn't want to release him because the Bears would pick him up and he knows all of Green Bays' offensive tendencies. If they do make a deal, they will try to send him to an AFC team but it's not much out there.

So my question to all of you is what team does he fit in with best?

They drafted Matt Ryan at #3 and are going to pay him a ton of money to sit on the bench, so that they can bring in Brett Favre and pay him a ton of money? I don't see it happening.

I think his best bet is in Green Bay, as a backup.  Aaron Rodgers might suck or get hurt, and Brett can come save the day.  ...or at least be on call.

I don't think it will happen, but I think it's the best situation.

I hope he lands on his sofa...

Favre will never be the backup in Green Bay.  The first time Aaron Rodgers throws an interception, they'll pan over to Favre on the sidelines, fans will start calling for Favre, etc.  It'll be all-out chaos.

By the time this plays out Favre will remain retired is my opinion.

According to Van Susteren, who spoke to the AP by telephone Monday afternoon, Favre said he was "never fully committed" to retiring and felt pressured by the Packers to make a decision, a notion Packers general manager Ted Thompson and coach Mike McCarthy tried to dispel in an interview with the AP on Saturday.

Brett seems to be dishonest here, over the last three or four years Brett has never honored the time lines, he made his own time table as to deciding to retire or play.
I find it odd he is calling the packer organization liars when history point's to the facts. This is Farve at his best,trying to get the spot light and playing the media like a fiddle. Brett you want to talk about being dishonest, who was crying on TV saying he had nothing left in him to play ? And then tell us he is 100% committed to play, will the real Brett Farve please step forward.

Hey, Joe, where do I sign up to join the "I hate Brett Favre" fan club?

I hate that Favre has his own category on ESPN's bottom line.
I hate that Favre can't make up his mind
I hate that Favre always wants to be in the media spotlight
I hate that Favre can never do any wrong
I hate that Favre is still in my face, IN JULY.

Hang it up, old man, and stop polluting my TV.

BRETT FAVRE SHOULD BE QB FOR THE DOLPHINS.  HE'S BETTER THAN MCCOWN OR THESE TWO YOUNG GUYS WE HAVE.

Yes, Favre is better than any QB on our roster right now.

No, he should most definitely NOT be the QB for the Dolphins.

YES HE SHOULD BE THE QB FOR THE MIAMI DOLPHINS.

WE'VE GOT MCCOWN WHO HAD TROUBLE BEATING OUT DAUNTE CULPEPPER IN OAKLAND, AND JOHN BECK WHO PROVED HE ISN'T WORTH ANYTHING.  ADD CHAD HENNE TO THAT AND YOU REALLY HAVE NOTHING.  GET BRETT FAVRE!!!!

He's going to Tampa....then Jeff Garcia will want to be released or traded...then the Dolphins get Garcia....Then Garcia sucks out because he doesn't have the arm strength to through to Ginn deep....then comes in Henne who plays slightly better than Beck and McCown in the preseason to get the nod as 2nd string to come save the day al la Ben Roethlessburger....Dolphins make playoffs via wildcard....go to Super Bowl against Tampa and beats them in their own town....Its all very Elementary, ironic and poetic.   :D

I heard on ESPN on the way home tonight that Favre is close to accepting the Packers offer to stay retired and collect on merchandising with a lifetime position with the team.He gets 20 mil over 10 years plus merchandising royalties and a figurehead position with the Packers for life.Do it Brett,please get off my t.v.!

I don't like Favre, but it bothers me that he will be paid not to play.   The packers are saying - we don't want you, but we don't want anyone else to have you.  If other teams want him and the Packers don't, then he should traded or released.   

At first I was hoping that Favre would just go away.  I think he's washed up, but I have to admit, if he comes back and plays for the Vikings or Bears, I'll watch that game.

Not the Jets. If the Jets were just a couple of pieces away from winning it all, I could see it, but I can't see him going to a team that is not going to be winning the SB within two seasons. If only Miami were that close I'd say come on down.  That being said, I can't think of any team that is very close that doesn't already have a stud QB( accept for Green Bay). So at the end of the day, I'll expect him to be competing with Rodgers for the starting QB job in Green Bay.

If he takes this offer, it will prove what some people have been saying all along, that he is a piece of shit prima donna, who doesnt really want to play but still want media time.

I can understand the guy wanting to play again.  But taking money NOT to play?   I'd be ashamed, especially after making such a mess of things. 

I'm sure he's hardly starving.  Now, if he takes the money and puts it all into United Way?   That's a different story.   :)

How many years would he have to stay retired in order to get out from under the Packer organization?
