I think both Dave and Dexter are making solid points. It's been an interesting argument all around. I would add, however, that if you are going to assail Dexter's credibility, Dave, you should at least have the courtesy to address the totality of his argument instead focusing solely on the statistical disparity between the eras. You are not doing Dexter's nuanced and multi-layered argument justice.

I was a little peeved when they let Brett start over Majkowski. I thought he had a small run of bad luck and that he would right himself. As for Brett he won the fans over because he played like his hair was on fire. He was running all over the place busting his gut (on gameday) to win. I don't think very many people knew he was putting forth less effort the rest of the week.

I know Majkowski was injured. At the time I did not know who bad the injury was. IIRC, he was not placed on the IR which added to my displeasure that he was not starting. My feeling did not last all year. it was only a game or two. After all he was the starter. He was the instant replay game and that "Farve" guy was little more than a 2nd round rookie for which they traded a 1st round pick. He was going to need AT LEAST another year on the bench.
So I was wrong. Sue me.

Hey, I liked the Don as much as anyone. Hell, I even had the same damn hair cut! But he was replaced in '91 for Mike Tomzcak before being given starter again in '92 under Mike Holmgren.

After his torn rotatory cuff injury in '90, he wasn't the same QB and the ankle injury that gave way to Brett Favre taking over in '92 did him no favors.

Once again. I WAS WRONG. At least I admitted what I was thinking 20 years ago.
