Now that the season is over... It is official.

Ted Thompson robbed the Jets in "The Trade" The Jets got the raw end of this deal, big time. Their season ended with an interception and no playoff appearance.

Would have been nice to have a second rounder... But... A third is still a steal and a great move by the G.M.

I can not wait for draft day.

I will go still farther, RaiderPride. I will say, without the slightest shade of apology, that after the embarrassing performance put on by Favre down the stretch (2 TD passes against 9 INTs in 5 games!!), anyone who still bitches about the Favre trade, and definitely anyone who complains that Aaron Rodgers is our starting quarterback, is nothing more than a willful complainer at best and simply not a true Packers fan at worst.

You may have a case for bitching about the circumstances under which the trade occurred (and even they were mostly Favre's fault), but you CANNOT possibly make any sort of serious argument that the Packers would have been better with Favre under center this year.

Last year was a remarkable renaissance by a quarterback who had been a little better than mediocre for nearly a decade. This year is a much better appraisal of his true state.

It's sad to watch. I was glad when he rode off into the sunset after a valiant attempt at a Superbowl run. I was afraid he'd come back and his image would be tarnished by a poor season, and that is what happened.

And for all of you saying it's because he didn't have much time to get accustomed to his new team, remember that he would have only had a few weeks with the Packers too. He chose to sit out until training camp was already underway. He has no one but himself to blame for this debacle.

Note:

I did not want to start a Bash Brett Thread.

I am just pointing out the fact. Ted Won In This Deal... And I am looking forward to draft day.

Carry On.

It's a crying shame. Favre should have retired and stayed retired. Maybe he finally will.

It was good for the Packers, though. At least we will get a draft pick.

I'm not bashing Favre -- I'm bashing people who bash Ted Thompson and Aaron Rodgers in the face of all evidence to the contrary. 😃

Yes as it turns out it was the right move. I just wish it had been the right move as in the Packers beating the Jets in the Super Bowl. Well, here's to an exciting playoffs, a great draft, and a return to glory next year.
