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.

Zero2Cool (22m) : It's better to have $17m to use on players who will be on the field. That's why trade/release is talked

Zero2Cool (23m) : post june is $7m cap hit with $17m saving

Zero2Cool (23m) : oops meant $10m cap hit

Zero2Cool (24m) : And pre june is $10m savings

Zero2Cool (24m) : Can't make him play.

dhazer (30m) : I am curious why the big need to release Jaire, we have 29 million cap space we arent spending and would only gain $6 million/ make him play

Zero2Cool (1h) : Joey Bosa signed with Bills?

dfosterf (1h) : What they are offering is a left over case of Leinies from the Chippewa Falls plant

Zero2Cool (1h) : 27, 59, 91, 129 gets you Jaire and our 3rd

Zero2Cool (1h) : they give us those five, or even first four, they can have Jaire.

Zero2Cool (1h) : 27, 59, 91, 129 and 136 are only ones worth having of theirs.

dfosterf (2h) : What they don't have is cap space, at least presently at 5.6 mil

dfosterf (2h) : Poor bastards only have 11

Zero2Cool (2h) : Ravens ain't got crap for picks.

Zero2Cool (2h) : Aaron Rodgers is choosing between Steelers and Giants. The Vikings are officially out on him, per RapSheet

dfosterf (2h) : Current cap space 29.6 million.

dfosterf (2h) : Hobbs 2025 cap hit just under 6 million. Banks 2025 cap hit just over 9 million

Mucky Tundra (9h) : beast, this is news to me! Tell me more about these, "draft picks." They seem mighty mysterious! 😉

beast (11h) : Yes, the Ravens have draft picks

dfosterf (12h) : Good luck to him.

Zero2Cool (13h) : Eric Stokes signs with Raiders

Martha Careful (14h) : Tyler Linderbaum C

Mucky Tundra (14h) : Cap space?

Zero2Cool (14h) : Do Ravens have anything we'd even entertain to have?

Mucky Tundra (16h) : I've seen trade ideas of Jaire going to the Ravens all offseason

beast (17h) : A probably false rumor is suggesting CB Jaire Alexander is being traded to the Ravens, again probably false

beast (17h) : Commanders might have a dominant offense the next 3 years at least

Zero2Cool (19h) : San Francisco 49ers announced they have released DL Leonard Floyd.

Mucky Tundra (21h) : Er getting traded twice like that

Mucky Tundra (21h) : Huh, LT Laremy Tunsil traded from Houston to Washington. Never heard of a top OT getting traded in his career like that

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Minnesota Vikings cornerback Byron Murphy Jr. is returning on a three-year, $66 million deal

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : Damn

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Saints are re-signing DE Chase Young to a three-year, $51 million deal worth up to $57 million.

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : 49ers releasing FB Juszcyk any interest?

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : digits of four

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : four digits

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Eh, don't think so. better to split

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : on new site, would Fan Shout and GameDay Chat show same messages?

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : The Hall of Fame stuff probably came from a scout as Zero said; at this point though it's hard to see them moving ZT from RT

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : Regarding ZT at C, Gute had said he felt C was ZTs best position after he was drafted.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : LB Oren Burks to sign a 2-year, $5M deal with the Bengals.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Based on how it was worded at the time, probably scout.

beast (10-Mar) : I don't think the media person ever told the public the source, but Gute or LaFleur did say they thought Tom has earned his spot at OT

beast (10-Mar) : I think it was supposedly unnamed Packers source

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Was that Gute or Lefleur or someone else?

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Zach Tom could be a really good guard, an all pro tackle, but probably be a HOF Center. Who said that?

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : It's March 10th. I don't think anything is done.

Martha Careful (10-Mar) : if we think CB is done, we have a poor roster

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : CB and OG in FA, narrows down the top of the draft board a little

Martha Careful (10-Mar) : Meh....I hope we can get Ward 49ers or Murphy Vikings
