"Favre has been nursing a sore shoulder all season, but it has not been thoroughly tested"
ESPN

Makes sense, BF has been hit and sacked more times this year than I can remember. The Jets are not that great at pass protection.

I'm sure there are some here who will scoff at that, but kind of shoots a hole in those that are saying he's "washed up", "done", and "doesn't have it anymore".

if it is hurt then would explain a few things..

and at the same time if his shoulder is an excuse, then gives Rodger fans an excuse as well...

Thanks Fred!

I was wondering about that too. Favre's been sacked 30 times this year (tied for eighth with Rodgers among others). Hopefully, it's nothing more than sore and not an injury because he may not play another year if it is.

Yes. I'm hoping it's nothing more than sore too. Peyton Manning's still good and will threaten BF 's records. I'm sincerely hoping BF plays another season just to pad his records.

Notice another thing - in '07, BF was one of the hardest, if not the toughest QBs in the NFL to bring down. In '08, he's become one of the easiest, if not the easiest to bring down. Is it because of his shoulder and he doesn't want to aggravate it?

You know... maybe this is all a cover up and he's just playing bad because of the... Madden Curse!

Well, on a semi-serious note, if he finishes the season, does that mean the Madden curse is broken? I wonder if those superstitious folks who believe in the curse will try to put a footnote by it and say "well, Favre was technically retired, so the Madden Curse is technically still going strong."

Is it possible this is his escape clause from football? Maybe he is realizing how hard it is to keep going at his age. He has looked tired the last half of the season in 2007 and 2008. This injusy and possible surgery could be a way to get out with an excuse.

What's Aaron Rodgers excuse for looking shaky, confused, and un-unable to win games and make come back wins for the Packers?

Lack of talent?

Oh..that's right.

It's everybody else's fault, even when it's his fault.

This wasn't meant to be a knock on Brett. It was an observation and a hypothetical. Brett has looked tired the last half of both seasons.(observation) It happens with age. After every season the past 5 Brett has hinted about leaving.(observation) He is tired and beat up by the end of the season. This may just be the best reason to hang it up. This way he isn't admitting he can't play because he is getting old but because he is injured.(hypothetical)

Just so we are on the same page.
What's Brett's excuse for looking shaky, confused, and un-unable to win games and make come back wins for the Jets not to mention his poor passer rating and all those interceptions?

Lack of talent?

Oh..that's right.

Lighten up.
