Maybe he just only turned around their entire franchise into a contender just about every year since he's started.

With the only exception of 2005, GB has at least been 8-8 in all of Favre's years starting as their QB.

What did Derrick Thomas do for KC.......or Tony Gonzalez????

Winning the SB is great, but Favre has been one of the faces of the NFL.

Peyton Manning only won a single title. You wanna dog on him too? Newsflash.........Winning the SB in the NFL is a very hard thing to do and many players on get to play in only one of them, maybe perhaps a couple if they are lucky enough.

It would be one thing if Favre wasn't playing at a high level. But he is and just came off of a Pro Bowl season. You don't fix whats not broken. Favre should start in 2008 and if for whatever reason he sucks real bad, then you can bench him for not playing well.

How many players on that team on offense want to see Favre come back. Players bust their asses for players like him.

You really think any player on that team would reject Favre coming back because they think they need to move on?

I think his point is with the fact although he has won a Superbowl it was with way more talent than KC has to offer. He is one of the greats but nobody can argue much of what he has done is regular season for the most part. It will be strange to see him in Miami gear next year.

I think that Ron Wolf is the guy responsible for turning that franchise around, and Favre was a large piece of that puzzle, as was Reggie White.

But the fact is, Favre pissed away opportunities with his gunslinger mentality and boneheaded decisions as much as he contributed to the winning.

Fact is, their one SB win he didn't do anything special in that game or the playoffs.

Desmond Howard, White, and that RB (whose name escapes me) who had a remarkable postseason that year every bit as responsible, if not more than Brett favre.

And I thought my disdain for Peyton Manning was pretty well documented around here.

Dorsey Levens. Andre Rison also contributed to the SB win.
