Favre seeks release from Packers (updated)Cowell 07-05-2008, 10:18 PM I don't if you guys have heard this yet but apparently Brett is interested in being a Carolina Panther. Brett Favre Wants To Play For The Panthers? - NFL (http://ballhype.com/story/brett_favre_wants_to_play_for_the_panthers/) Luxorreb 07-06-2008, 04:45 AM Possible suitors could also include the Bears and Dolphins. Paintrain 07-06-2008, 11:25 AM I really don't know how in conscience he could put on a Green Bay uniform again. Not to mention the media scrutiny he would be under every single week. Anything short of a Super Bowl trophy would be a bust. See Michael Jordan-Washington Wizards See Jerry Rice-Denver Broncos See Emmit Smith-Arizona Cardinals Some people just don't know when to let it go.. jsarno 07-06-2008, 11:46 AM I don't if you guys have heard this yet but apparently Brett is interested in being a Carolina Panther. Brett Favre Wants To Play For The Panthers? - NFL (http://ballhype.com/story/brett_favre_wants_to_play_for_the_panthers/) That's not a reputable link, that's just a rumor with no proof. #1- Favre is under contract with the Packers. #2- His contract would pay him over 12 mil if he played, which makes it hard for any team to pick him up unless they have a lot of cap space. #3- He would only come back if he played for a winner (he's made this clear), and while the Panthers fit the bill, the bears and dolphins do not. The Packers had 13 wins last year, why leave that? #4- Favre would not be a back up, that being said, the Panthers would not fit the bill. Only the bears and dolphins would, but again see #3. So while we are all talking crazy rumors (especially since Favre himself said there is nothing to all this talk) I think Favre will come out of retirement and sign with the Skins, take over the starting job, but befriends Campbell, and we will the super bowl. Yaaaaay! rypper11 07-06-2008, 11:58 AM See Michael Jordan-Washington Wizards See Jerry Rice-Denver Broncos See Emmit Smith-Arizona Cardinals Some people just don't know when to let it go.. Exactly! And I would add Joe Namath- Rams, Art Monk- Eagles and Johnny Unitas - Chargers. That being said, Rodgers has proven to be fragile and if he goes down Favre will be on a plane to Wisconsin and starting again. Short of that, don't expect him in uniform this season.

ESPN - Ravens, Texans, Bucs among finer fits for Favre - NFL (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?columnist=williamson_bill&id=3474482) mredskins 07-08-2008, 09:48 AM If you go to SI.com today they have rumors of him coming to the Skins. Monkeydad 07-08-2008, 10:44 AM ^ That's just stupid. We have no need for Favre and will not let him play for us. I'd LOVE to see him on the Bears, just for the comedy and riots. It will be a hilarious way to die. Paintrain 07-08-2008, 10:49 AM If you go to SI.com today they have rumors of him coming to the Skins. Link or quote? | |
