Title: Ya know what they say about old dogs and new tricks. Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on August 20, 2008, 12:02:25 pm Favre wants simpler Jets offense
Brett Favre, in a radio interview yesterday, indicated that he spoke to coach Eric Mangini yesterday about trying to pare down the number of offensive plays in order for him to get comfortable as he crams for the start of the season. "I had a long talk with Eric," Favre said on 1050 ESPN Radio. "I don't want to think, I want to react. There's got to be some middle ground there. That's what we're trying to find. I'm trying to get as much digested as possible. "A lot of times you can make this as complicated as you want to." Favre indicated that the goal is to "simplify" things and "use the guys to the best of our ability." He said the Jets' offense "is totally different" from the Packers system he was in the last 16 years. "Some of the terms we used in Green Bay we use here, but they mean something totally different," he said. http://www.fannation.com/truth_and_rumors/view/62611 Title: Re: Ya know what they say about old dogs and new tricks.

You - run straight. You - go to the dog bowl and swirl in. The rest of you - block. I'll throw to whoever is open. If no one is open I'll run it myself. It's on three, on three. Ready? Break!" -what it feels like to be in the huddle with Brett Favre. Title: Re: Ya know what they say about old dogs and new tricks.
