No hate here. I still love the guy, which is exactly why I want to see him hang it up. I've never seen him play as consistently bad as he has in the past 5 games. He didn't singlehandedly lose those games, but he definitely played a major role in the crash.

Think he'll play better a year from now, after another year of physical pounding and officially turning 40? Ain't going to happen.

I don't hate the guy either. I wanted him to finish out on top by retiring last year. He's still my favorite player ever on the Packers, but I just see the writing on the wall that he should hang it up this year.

The Pack Will Be Back.

I dont hate him either

I wanted him to make the records so far out of reach no one willever break them..I wanted him to prove to everyone he was still one of the best around.

But the the heathers , the freds, the dh and others on here and other forums that constantly are gobbling on him and saying he did nothing wrong that I hate

I am actually enjoying them trying to defend his poor play for last 5 weeks..Yeah that makes me an a@@....

When in same breath they are blaming the packers entire season on Rodgers

I proudly say I love the guy. He's my favorite player ever, and I hope he puts those records out of reach and plays at least one more year.

Keep in mind, he set the TDs, Yards, Wins, Most Consecutive Games Started, etc., all those records as a GREEN BAY PACKER. That makes us Packers fans look good.

Twenty years from now, we'll all be looking back fondly on the Favre years, and I doubt any of us will bring up the Jets years that much. It will be like "remember when Favre...?" and we'll be talking about Packers moments.

As a lifelong, die-hard Bulls fan, I can tell you we don't talk about Jordan's golf experiment or the time in DC.

So, you're right - given a little time it'll be just like he never un-retired.

I watched the game yesterday, and Favre looked done. Those 3 INT's were awful.
Now.....had he STARTED the year bad, and got better, there would be an excuse for it. He was new on the team, learning a new system and players. But instead he started well, and fell apart in the last 3rd od the season. If he was hurt that bad that he would cost his team 4 of their last 5 games, shouldn't he have taken himself out, and let a healthy QB run the team? If you are going to do more damage then good for you team, thats what you SHOULD do in my opinion.

You haven't seen the Jets' backup. The indicator for me that Favre needs to retire is not the INTs. Were they bad? Yes, but a number of those were due to miscommunication (how is this happening in the final month of the season?), lousy receivers (drops, tipping the ball up to a DB, can't get open deep), an O-line that couldn't pass block for crap, and Favre's timing being off. That last one is the glaring sign of a man who needs to retire. Even on the completions, there were a lot of balls behind the receiver that they had to make an adjustment on. And this wasn't an end of the season thing, it was going on all year long. It didn't help that Mangini tried to use Favre in a system that was designed for Pennington and never adapted it to Favre's strengths. That's why Favre wasn't made the scapegoat by management and Mangini was canned. It was glaringly obvious that Favre was not a good fit in that offense regardless of how well he played. The Jets didn't acquire him to have Mangini not take advantage of his talents. Ultimately, Favre was committed to playing, but whether due to injury or age the timing just wasn't what it was. For that reason alone, he needs to retire.

We are not saying he did NOTHING wrong!! He is part of the Jets team, to me the whole team and coaches had everything to do with them not winning games, if you go back which I know you will at my posts I did say Favre is not perfect and he is not god. He made some lousy throws I have said this as well. But it wasnt him solely making this team loose everyone had a hand in it.

beast (8h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (21h) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games
