The are rumors that Brett Favre will come back to play another season of football, if not for the Green Bay Packers some other team. So do you think Brett will come back and if he does will it be for the Packers? To me the Jets and The Vikings need a quarterback but I doubt the Packers would trade Favre to the Vikings because Green Bay and Minnesota are in the same division.

I think he'd go back to the Packers if anything, but I hope he stays retired for his sake and the team's...Aaron Rodgers deserves a shot.

He could always get traded to Atlanta and finish his career where it started. ;)

In all seriousness, he will probably stay in Green Bay if he decides to play this year. What GM would trade away a first ballot hall-of-famer and risk the chance of the team you traded him to having a great year with Favre and making the playoffs while the Packers and your unproven quarterback goes 8-8 and misses the playoffs?

You really have to feel bad for Aaron Rodgers though. :-\\

I actually thought about Atlanta but than I realized Atlanta had already overpayed(greatly) Matt Ryan to be their quarterback of their future. I thnk Chris Redman is their backup(Laugh.)

Getting back to seriousness anyway with the Favre issue I mean if he went to the Vikings they would be right there with the Giants and the Cowboys as a pre-season favorite to go to the Super Bowl out of the NFC. I mean they are some former Packers on that Vikings team like Ryan Longwell, Robert Ferguson, and Darren Sharper and plus Brett would have Adrian Peterson at his side at Running Back. The Vkings also have have a great run Defense although their pass defense is awful even with Sharper and Antoine Winfield in the secondary.

I doubt with the Jets that even with Favre that would get past the likes of the Chargers, Patriots, and the Colts even with the free agent signings of Calvin Pace, Kris Jenkins, Alan Faneca, and Damien Woody.

Yes, I think that with Favre, Minnesota would be a bona fide contender in the weak NFC. Just look at there division the NFC North. With the shaky Lions, the likely to be very horrible Bears, and the Packers with an unproven quarterback, they could easily win 10 or more games. Plus, the NFC is a very top heavy conference and there are no clear favorites outside of Dallas and the Giants so there's plenty of room for a solid Viking team to move up there with them.

I can't see the Jets making it far with Farve either. He could possibly get them into the playoffs (other than New England the AFC East doesn't look that tough), but it would be hard to see them getting past all of the top tear teams in the AFC playoffs.

Annoying thing is, the two teams that need him most - Vikings, Bears, won't get him!

The Bears are not a Super Bowl team even with Favre the Vikings will/would be a Super Bowl team with Favre. Who are the Bears wide recievers anyway I mean they lost Benard Berryman to the Vikings in the off-season.

The Packers allege tampering charges against the Vikings for the Vikings offsensive cooridinator talking with Favre. The Pacxkers say when Brett said he wanted to be cut was because he wanted to play for the Vikings.

First off, I'm totally irritated with Favre for even contemplating coming back.  He could have gone out gracefully, but now he just looks like an idiot.

As far as him going to the Bears or the Vikings, I can't fathom either fans welcoming him with open arms. 

And I agree with everyone about Aaron Rodgers.  It's totally unfair to him.

I'm a huge Packers fan...and I've always been a big Favre fan...but right now I could just kick his @ss.

Good point.

I think both sides are to blame on this. I fully understand the Packers not wanting him to go to a division rival, that's all well and good, but the fact that they're basically telling their whole franchise to suck one is a slap in the face.

I haven't followed the Brett Favre situation closely, but I assume that he would want to sign with a contending team.  There is speculation here on the east coast about the NY Jets, but I cannot see that happening.

Brett Farve has been reinstated by the NFL, and will be at Packers training camp tomorrow.

There's still a small chance he could be traded, but my prediction is he will be playing for the Packers opening night against the Vikings.

This morning, on Bloomberg Radio, they had a snippet of and interview with Steve Young explaining the difficulties of retirement.  He said it is difficult for someone like Favre to retire.  He compared it to a world renowned doctor. lawyer, or actor throwing in the towel. 

Brett's a Jet.

Well, I guess I was wrong. ;D

The Jets are actually a pretty solid team, and could be in the running for a wild card spot, but its hard to see them getting past the Patriots, Colts, Chargers, or Jaguars in the AFC playoffs even with Favre.

Saw in the paper today that he's either going to Tampa Bay to play for the Bucs or to New York to play for the Jets.  Perferably I'd like to see him go to Tampa Bay, for I am a fan of the Jets.

i think i saw he just got traded to the jets.

Brett's a Jet.


.. yeah.. not exactly breaking news folks.

Ya'll need to get with Sportscenter.
