Brett Farv

Which is pretty poor form. Favre needs to either poop or get off the pot. I think it's pretty unfair what he's doing to Green Bay.

I agree. Favre is the type of guy everybody repects, but making the Packers twist in the wind is disruptive and disrespectful. But he's Brett Favre, so what can they say? Tough situation for Green Bay.

Yeah, those 16 pass attempts were really a great indication of what Aaron Rodgers can do in the NFL.

On 34 Pass Attempts, Jamie Martin had a 92.9 passer rating. That was the first year he threw a football.

Yeah, and he developed into a stud, didn't he?

You can't get an accurate picture of a QB one way or another from such little action.

Well he has completed 66% of his passes and does have an 81 QB rating. But has more Ints. than TDs.
But the only time he had more INTs than TDs was when he was playing under Martz.

I guess I just don't see your point. You cite Rodgers' QB rating based on 16 attempts as if that says something about the kind of pro he'll be. Then you bring up Jamie Martin's high rating on 34 attempts his rookie year. So what is you conclusion? Obviously coming out and putting up good numbers doesn't mean you're going to be a superstar, because Martin isn't. So why should Rodgers' low rating over 16 attempts make any difference?

That isn't Martin's best rating.
I took his first season of throwing the football vs. Rodgers first season of throwing the football.

ya know something.Brett Farve might not play this year.

Jaime Martin might not either,but theres a good chance Aaron Rogers will.

That sums up everything writin in this thread.

...and the point is?

i am growing tired of favre and will he or wont he play, who cares anymore,it sounds to me like hes telling the fo what to do and if they dont he wont come back,so see ya,the nfl will do just fine without brett favre.

I'm not a Packer fan or Favre fan. I read, listen and watch NFL news every day. Once every couple of weeks someone updates Favre's situation and for some odd reason it doesn't phase me. At all. I don't like or dislike Favre any more or less than have the past 10 years. Is someone out there being bombarded with so much Brett Favre related news that they are growing weary or agitated?

I don't think the Packers are going to suffer one way or the other and apparently they're happy to give Favre the time he needs to figure things out. I haven't heard of an ultimatum or timeline by management. If Green Bay's alright with Favre's approach, why should Rams fans be getting uptight about it?

Misunderstood your post.

Let's look at a few superstar QBs in their first season:

Daunte Culpepper - Rating 98.9
Ben Roethlisberger - Rating 98.1
Payton Manning - Rating 71.2
Eli Manning - Rating 55.4 (Not a superstar yet)
Kurt Warner - Rating 47.2
Donovan McNabb - Rating 60.1
Drew Brees - Rating 94.8
Jeff Garcia - Rating 77.9
Marc Bulger - Rating 101.5
Brett Favre - Rating 85.3

Most of these quarterbacks had great numbers in their rookie season and turned out great.

How many of them threw only 16 pass attempts in those years?

Favre is an ego maniac. He would play 10 more years if he thought they would let him.

...and as for all your little argument above, I believe Warner only threw 9 or 10 passes in that last game of 98, and apparently had passer rating of 47, so probably true that 16 passes does not a career make.

Who knows about Rogers. My guess is that Favre will come back and end up being pulled mid season for Rogers when they are 3 and 6.

Brees had 27.
