Now I understand why there can be some ill will towards you here. I understand this is something that is very useful in some professions but certainly not a football message board. If you actually put time into correcting everyone on this board you would have a full time job on your hands.Originally Posted by DraftBoy
BERNIAC!
7 pages of whining crying doom and gloomThe Bills may as well not even bother to show up to play the Jets now.
Here are some Favre stats to chew on, borrowed from another site:
I love Brett, and he will give the Jets better play at QB. They will be a better team. But, a Super Bowl contender? Not unless a whole lot of other things go right. This isn't the 3-Time-MVP Favre the Jets are getting. Not even close. This isn't the Brett who can carry a team.- Over the last five seasons, Favre has thrown 100 interceptions.
- Adding in fumbles, Favre has turned the ball over 127 times in that span.
- In the last three seasons, Favre has 67 total TD and 81 turnovers.
- In the last four seasons that Green Bay had a home playoff game, Favre and the Packers lost three times.
- In the last nine playoff games, Favre's QB rating has been under 83 nine times.
- Favre has 14 TD and 16 INT in playoff games this millenium.
Pat is over-reacting. The Jets are a classic IF team:
IF the OL gels and plays well...
IF Favre can quickly get up to speed on their scheme...
IF their defense quickly implements all the new bodies...
IF their coaching staff does a better job of getting consistent effort out of the team...
IF, IF, IF...
Let's not get carried away here.
One has to think this move has at least two or maybe three years with Favre playing attached to it somehow. this whole situation is difficult to make sense of. I wonder how Favre is going to do with the New York media. I bet he was about to be benched in GB.
Here's my favorite one:
Brett Favre at RWS:
0-3
1994: L Packers 20 Bills 29
2000: L Packers 18 Bills 27
2006: L Packers 10 Bills 24
And to tell the truth, he didn't look like a world beater in any of those games.
In fact, if you throw in the fact that we won in Milwaukee in 1991, that leaves two wins against four losses to the Bills.
Big whop.
Fact is, that this is an aging star, with diminished skills who's letting his ego get the best of him.
But hey, the Jets will sell a couple tickets, right?
Favre throws a ball right into the hands of Fletcher, who returns it 17 yards for a TD. Then he has it 1st and goal at the 1 but throws it right to Nate Clements who runs it back some 60 yards before being dragged down. We score a couple plays later on a J.P. to Evans 43 yard strike & it's game over.
We gladly point out Jaurons fluke 13-3 season with the Bears. Anyone think last year was a similar year for the average Packers ? Down division and a ton of breaks.
Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit
The Brett Favre Jets had a home game yesterday against the Cassel led Pats. How did that turn out again ? Epic FAIL !
The balance of power hasn't shifted at all. The Pats are still the team to beat and we may be the only team that has a small shot at doing that.
It certainly not the Brett Favre Jets.
The Pats looked TERRIBLE! GO BILLS!!!!
Resign our own guys!
Both teams looked pretty average yesterday. This division is ours for the taking. We just have to want it.
Hows that working out so far ?
A lot of football left, boys
More time for folks to forget all your predictions of doom.
