Favre Completes Revenge

[Exitspeed]

TT and MM are both douche canoes. Sherman was no Ron Wolf but he was better than today's version of Beavis and Butthead. Hell, they should have just given Holmgren the reins. He made a winner out of Seattle with little to no talent over there. I hear he's itching to come back.. I'd say the Packers should roll out the bandwagon and get him back here.

THAT WOULD BE SO FUCKIN RAD. I'd love to see him come back and get the head coaching position and GM position he wanted in the first place. SUPER BOWL!

Actually when he was GM and coach he didn't do jack shit in Seattle. They actually stripped him of the GM title I think in year 3 or 4 cause they were mired at like 8-8 every year despite high expectations. Ted Thompson did help draft some decent players there when they took the GM job away from Holmgren. I say help cause I do not beleive he was the GM, I think he was in charge of personnel though. Doubt he had final say. It was after Thompson left and Seattle went out and signed some key Free Agents that Seattle then went to the Super Bowl.

IMO there is more then enough evidence that one guy being both the coach and the GM does not work.

Good artical !


MVP FOR BRETT !!!!!

[Exitspeed]

Good article. It makes me kinda side with him a little more. Yet I still can't root for him over the Packers.

[TraceDaddy]

Don't have to root for him over the Packers. Root for them both. They won't be playing each other again this year.

And one fault of the article. I was in the Favre bunker too.

And yes if Rodgers beat Favre, everybody would be making the comparison. So it is fair to compare the 2.

If you swapped QB's I really believe the results would of been the same. The main difference in each game was one QB had no pressure, the other had tons....no QB or single player beat another player, unless they literally faced each other on the field.

I think people have hated Thompson since he was hired, at least several folks I know.

As mediocre or poor as Thompson has been so far, I think the Sherman era was worse.

There are alot of big name proven coaches out there, surely some will want to come back. I'm curious what the Packers will do but I think they will stick with Thompson for at least another year and probably McCarthy too.

OK. If we narrow it down to sacks. With no discussion re: O Line acquistions/desertions etc.

In 2007 (sacks Allowed):
Packer Favre years.

GB 19
Jets 53
Vikes 38

2008:
Jets Favre years.

GB 34
Jets 30
Vikes 43

2009: 1/2 year
Vikes Favre years

GB 31
Jets 15
Vikes 18

Just a quick time snap.

[Nix]

it is we... WE own them. i own stock as well, so yes, WE.


as for revenge, the only ultimate revenge, to "complete" it would be win a super bowl. IMO the only way his comeback (again) can be called a success is a super bowl win.

Are you serious? He got his revenge and then some!!!!! The Vikings own Green Bay this year no question. Favre has carved them up not once, but twice now. that line is so good that he has all day to decide where to throw. That Vikings are just a better team. No ifs, ands or buts about it. The better team won.

Even if Minnesota dosen't win the superbowl or even go for that matter, Favre did get what he wanted and it will be added to the record books. No matter what.

Im a fan of Green Bay and Favre.

If Green Bay dosen't end up getting a Wild Card and making the playoffs then I will be gunning for Favre to do great things and make me proud.

A big factor is the QB avoiding sacks but the Jets invested in their o-line before they traded for Favre last off- season, their numbers are on pace to be the same 08'-09'....Vikings are on the same pace all 3 years....Packers obviously down hill and fast, last year wasn't bad. Rodgers is responsible for more than he should be this year, last year I don't remember him holding on to the ball as long. Hard to put those numbers up and not talk about o-line changes. Not trying to pick apart the stats just sayin'.

[Karps TA]

The talent and coaching of this team continue to impress me to no end.

[jbiscuit]

Packers offensive line is the best in the league. 4 sacks by the Bucs D? Outstanding! OOPS I misspoke. 6 sacks.

[Reverend Cooper]

A-rod already has some foot issues,could be a worse 2nd half of the season

[HITMAN]

Hurray for Ted "The Sledge" Thompson, the best Packers GM EVAR!
Oh, and let's not forget Mike McTwatty, the most inept packers coach since Ray Rhoads.
These two rodeo clowns couldn't figure out how to get laid in the Moonlight Bunny Ranch with pockets full of $1000 bills.

[Jhdearing]

All I know is that it just looks weird to me seeing Favre in Purple as opposed to Yellow and Green....
