Since their last Super Bowl in 97...... 5 or 6 playoff appearances and MOST of those are Wild Card wins.....

The '06 season only matters because it shows that he was correct to return in '07 in spite of front office pressure.

Favre is an aging, somewhat overrated but still Hall of Fame-caliber QB, while Aaron Rogers has put up middling (and largely meaningless) numbers when he's worn his helmet. Unless you think getting those snaps would have reversed Aaron Rogers' fortunes (which even the GB front office seemed to disagree with up until this season), I simply can't imagine what argument you're really trying to make.

There is probably a <10% chance that Aaron Rogers EVER has a season like Favre's 2007, not to mention the 4000 yd/30 TD season he put up in 2004, when you think he should have retired the first time.

Green Bay is clearly building for a Favre-less future - but they're so convinced that Aaron Rogers will lead that future that they drafted Brian Brohm just a couple of months ago. This is only a detriment for the FO because they made it one themselves - putting this on Favre is short-sighted and foolish.

Ksig...no rookie since Dan Marino has ever put up numbers like he did..so we agree on that...

I dont think Favre is overrated BTW....he is just a big flip flopper....and no...drafting another QB was brilliant....they are doing what u just said they did...they were planning for No Favre...meaning...they are bringing Rodgers up and protecting their season...however, they still need a veteran presence on the team....who knows...Duante Culpepper still needs a job....heh!
