Football Another Favre comeback thread....... - Page 2

DTLB58 · 07-07-2008, 07:10 PM

SI's Peter King writes that Brett Favre "wants to play football again" and his agent could ask the Packers to be taken off the league's reserve/retired list in the next ten 10 days.

It's the logical next step. King writes the Packers clearly don't want him back, so this would force the issue. They'd have to let Favre play or get rid of him, both of which sound frightening. They could also try one last time to convince him not to play. King believes that ultimately the Packers would take him back, risking the chance they alienate Aaron Rodgers. Another option would be if Favre agrees not to join one of their NFC North rivals. Jul. 7 - 9:55 am et

If this happens and I'm Aaron Rodgers I ask for a trade.

I was really surprised he retired in the first place. Coming up short of the superbowl, I thought, would pretty much solidify his not retiring. As close as they got.

He's better than 75% QB's that are in the NFL currently

I have always liked the guy, heck as much as I can like a player from another team. This act is getting old, and I think it is unfair to the team. If I was Rodgers I would say enough is enough trade me.

Carl will find a way to bring in Joe Monta... I mean Brett Favre.

**The Franchise** · 07-11-2008, 02:20 PM

The Bucs will probably sign him to compete with their other 12 QBs.

Rooster · 07-11-2008, 02:22 PM

I wish he would just hang them up. He has nothing else to prove IMO.

Who cares if he has anything to prove. The guy just likes to play.

I can't remember what I was watching yesterday,I think it was NFL Network but anyways someone had said that The Bucs should try and sign Farve and then trade Garcia to the vikes....

RustShack · 07-11-2008, 02:23 PM

Maybe he wants to extend his interception record. Or just doesn't want his last NFL pass to be a game losing interception.

My money is on the Vikes. They have a very good team with no QB. Plus it's a FU to a division rival.

I thought that but then I thought that maybe the Packers will make a deal with Favre that they'll release him if he agrees not to sign with a team in the NFC North. They have about as much cap room as us....so they could just say screw it and hold onto him.
