Does Favre Retire?

He can still play at a very high level. If he still has the fire in his gut and with GB's young team I see no reason why he cant keep playing.

I still say he is not one of the greatest of all time. He is somewhere between top 5-10 of all time, but IMO that would be about it. He is impatient and forces balls into double and triple coverage. A true all time great like Joe Montana, or John Elway was smarter than that. Frankly I do not think he had a very good game last night. Other than the long TD pass where the defender was thrown to the ground by a great play of the WR, Farve was not very consistent. A young Eli outplayed him.

Does 38 year old Brett Favre retire now?


Why should he?

One thing I noticed last night was it looked like the cold bothered Farve more then Eli.

.........adrenaline.

Why and who cares?

He can still play at a very high level. If he still has the fire in his gut and with GB's young team I see no reason why he cant keep playing.

He looked like the cold got the better of him last night. Eli was cold but his age had to play a part. Favre old bones froze and he was not affective in the 4th quarter and OT.

He will be back b/c they have a good team though.

I think he'll be back. The Packers are young and talented and could make another run next year.

I think he will make ONE more run at this thing. Next year will be all she wrote either way.

He needs to color his hair, all that gray really shows his age. Time to leave gracefully Brett.

I was wondering how long it would take before seeing the annual "does Favre retire" thread.

I would like to say he should come back for another year to try to win one more superbowl, but he won't make it there because the Redskins will be in it next year.
