WHAT....WHAT...?!! No Comment?! Yeah, I thought so!.....

No, NO crush. Yes, I DO believe Rodgers would have (or would have HAD) the numbers. (IF given the chance!..If Farve would have retired....!) GB WR's leads the league in YAC! Rodgers proved that when he played in Dallas! (re: That when you throw short like Farve has ALL year long to "Talented" WR's, & they did that in Dallas, did they not?....Just like they've done all year-YAC!) There's where the numbers come from-YAC! (But, #264...hahaha..That a Farve "Personal" accomplishment/record!)

i think soside4life has a crush on rodgers. how could you possibly say favre is holding the pack back? he is in the top few in the league in most major categories this season. do you think rodgers numbers would be anywhere near what favre has done? if you do you must not understand the level of competition in the NFL. Rodgers will get his day and after a few seasons he may be decent or more than likely he will be just an ordinary QB.

Kind of off topic, but I hear Antonio Freeman and Robert Brooks from the Packers Super Bowl 31 championship team, will be at East Towne Mall in Madison on this Saturday signing autographs. It's at a store called Into The Woods and the phone number is 608-301-9874. Ryan Grant and James Jones will be there on Tuesday the 11th.

Comparing Brett's chance to start due to Don Majkowski's injury to Rodgers' chance isn't fair. "Majik's" injury was more serious than Brett's from last week. If Favre wasn't playing, there is little chance the Packers would be 10-2. He is not in this to break these records. No way. I have good friends who know Brett personally. While the records are great, the real icing on the cake is a win in Brett's eyes. Brett wants to win. Why else would he have offered to give up part of his salary to get Randy Moss in green and gold. Not to mention, he doesn't make the choice each week, for the last 17 years, if he starts or not. That's left up to the coaching staff. And, if they are allowing Brett to play simply so he can hold a bunch of records, then shame on them. They shouldn't be coaching in the NFL then as they do not have the best interest of the ENTIRE TEAM at heart! Bottom line is Brett had a rough start to the game last week, got hurt in the 2nd quarter and didn't return. The Packers lost. Kudos goes to the Cowboys for out-coaching and out-playing the Packers and capitalizing on Brett's injury and Rodgers' inexperience. I'm not whining at all that they lost. But, you cannot put the blame on one guy for a TEAM losing a game. Consequently, you cannot credit one guy with a TEAM winning a game either.

Favre's line this year:

296 of 439 passes completed for 67.4% (ranked 3rd)

3412 yards passing (2nd to Brady)

22 TD's (6th) vs 10 interceptions (15th)

QB Rating 97.9 (6th)

I bet there are 25 or 26 teams who would put him in front of their current starter.

It does takes the whole team to win and with the youngest team in the NFL it takes a LEADER with those type of stats to win. That's what Favre is.

As for Rogers starting, that won't happen, he pulled a hammy in practice.

I really agree w/ the last guy's comment. It does take the WHOLE TEAM & a GOOD COACH to get to a CHAMPIONSHIP (SUPER BOWL!)...! I AM a PACKER fan & because I am, I believe that Aaron Rodgers REALLY needs to start this week!! (FARVE (?..Ha!) got "HIS BIG CHANCE" in sort of the same circumstances <re: "hurt" QB>, did he not?!) Farve is holding the PACK down for his "own" personal gain (His records)! Honestly, NO, that's NOT "classy"!

GO RODGERS!!

For all of you that think all packer fans are whiners,not all of us are. I am a Packers fan, and yes, I would have liked to see them win against Dallas but that didn't happen. As much as I hate to say it the Packers were out played and out coached. Maybe if they would have stuck to the basics from the beginning of the game, it might have turned out differently or maybe not. They went up against a good team and it didn't work out. So what do they need to do? Learn from the experience and move on to the next game. I think Favre is a great Q.B. but it takes a whole team and coaching to win games and championships. My personal opinion, I think they have a good enough team to make it to the Super Bowl. But if they don't, then try again next year. GO Pack!!!

momof5- Sorry about upsetting you about my F-A-R-V-E spelling....it was "meant" to be sarcastic! (Something About Mary?!....nevermind!...) "Randy Rhodes", oops, sorry to upset you, "RAY", that was my error..-N & -D =RAY...Gotta get credit for that one, right, "Spelling" teacher?! But, since you've joined in, now I spew "crap". You know something, I NEVER stated I "hated" FARVE, nor have I said I "loved" him, just my opinion!! I have just provided facts about him, which OBVIOUSLY irritates you & others! (...& DEEP down, like MANY other Packer fans, I think you know FARVE needs to go!) Sorry, but the truth hurts!

I didnt say I was whining, I said the bears sucked on sunday, yes the packers season is better than the bears, but read all of the comments before you start talking trash about anybody who is not a packers fan, and what kind of comment is smoke a doobie and go back to bed, last time I checked this was an article about the packers, not smoking pot, maybe all you packer fans need to smoke a big fatty, to calm your nerves down, relax its just a game, get over!!!

Who is whining? Who claims Favre is god? The Pack is 10-2 and heading for the playoffs. If you want to hear whining turn on any post-game Bears show and listen to the fan's call in.
Smoke a doobie and go back to bed.

I do know about football, I love the bears, I am not ashamed to say that. All you packer fans start whining about everything when the packers lose, I am not whining that the bears lost just stating that I love them, quit whining and get over yourselves!!!! Brett Favre is a great player, I will admit that but they lost the dallas game, believe it or not brett farve can mess up from time to time he is not god!!!

BRETT FAVRE - SPORTS ILLUSTRATED SPORTSMAN OF THE YEAR!

soside4life:
It is F-A-V-R-E not Farve. And, Randy Rhodes? Who is that? Oh, you must mean RAY Rhodes! Get your facts straight before you start spewing crap. Like I said before, love him or hate him, but atleast have respect for the man. He is one of the very few class acts left in a league of delinquents who are in it for me, money, me, me, and more money. Sure, Rodgers had a few fantastic plays. However, it is extremely unjust to compare him to any of the greats in the league or say it is time to turn over the reigns just because he had a few fantastic plays. He's not ready to be #1 yet, and he knows it. In a league that is driven by agents and the "me" factor, if Rodgers believed he should be starting, he'd be on a different team already. The most over-rated qb in the league? IMHO, it is Tony Romo!

mymaro- YEAH, I'm serious! (...an Apology!) Obviously, you know/ might have looked up something (re: Farve threw 8648 passes, & was intercepted 281..blah,blah,blah..)...BUT, you obviously don't get the fact that PERCENTAGES DON'T COUNT or MATTER in RECORDS!! They REALLY don't! (....You'll have to Google the "FARVE INTERCEPTION COUNTDOWN", which has been updated now....It's hilarious! (Sorry..I know..salt in the wound! But, the truth hurts sometimes, right?)..& it also gives you comparisons/numbers to alot of the other QB's you named!) I understand the fact the you are (OBVIOUSLY!) a Farve/Packer Fan & I appreciate that!...I really do! ;) But, this week, Rodgers REALLY needs to play! BREAK the FAVRE record! (LET FAVRE GO!...for once & for ALL!! He shouldn't hold the PACKERS back any longer than he has!!)
When I said "Farve needs disipline...", I mean, Farve has NOT done ANYTHING (..really) good (or for his TEAM!), besides stay & break his own "Personal" records....SINCE Holmgren left!! (Holmgren, from whom he GOT "discipline" & his "Super Bowl" ring!)....Remember "Randy Rhodes", the year after Holgren left...haha...Not good!

Did you know that the 1st recorded throw Favre threw in the NFL was "intercepted"?! (His 2nd didn't go too well either!)

I probably would chose the latter of the cars (15,000)!....

Oh, & if ANY QB was EVER "UNDRATED", it "WAS" VINNY TESTEVERDE (#16!)...

LMAO, bears rock, yeah, right. You must not know anything about football!!

lol blue21 I was cussing at them too, my husband(who hates football) was laughing at me the entire 4th quarter, yesterday's game sucked, but I think they did alright up until the 2nd half. lol, not a proud day to be a bears fan, but I am still totally in love with them, they rock!!!

Pandow, I, too am a Bears fan. Guess it's from being born and bred a Chicagoan.
I had such high hopes this year, and we let another one go yesterday. Not even cursing at the television could help (my husband tried that, apparently, the players can't hear him yelling instructions to them).

SOSIDE4LIFE, are you serious? apology? so numbers matter huh? ummm..........percentages arent numbers? it only makes sense that the higher the number of attempts the higher the number of interceptions. so percentage of interceptions to attempts is the tell tale NUMBER. you cant say that brett is worse than(for example) joe namath who only attempted 3762 passes and was intercepted 220 and favre attempted 8648 passes ans was intercepted 281. that is 5.8% for namath and 3.2% for favre. if youre going to compare the big picture you have to do it in a logical way.

if you had two cars both 10 years old, one had 150000 miles and the other had 15000 miles, would you say that the one with 150000 miles was less reliable because it broke down more?

To mymaro- No, I'm not an ignorant hater, because I never stated anything about "hating" Favre. I PERSONALLY stated my opinion, as well as documented facts & numbers. Look them up, you definately NEED TO! Percentages mean nothing, you should know that! NUMBERS are what make NFL records &/or any other sort of other record(s)! (Atleast for the ones that matter!) Farve holds THE record, not only for the MOST Amt. (NUMBERS) Of Career Interseptions, but (or AS WELL AS) for the MOST Interseptions thrown, THAT WENT BACK FOR A TD, too!! NOW, go ahead, mymaro, & look that & everything else up! (Like YOU should have done BEFORE telling me I "spew" garbage! YOU seriously need to get/check YOUR numbers first before YOU start trashing ANYONES "opinion", for which, once again, I "PERSONALLY" made!!)...P.S. My math skills are just fine, I'm wondering about your "remedial" language skills, though! Oh, & I'll be waiting for your apology.......!

Actually, I was impressed by the way Rodgers played. And for all who think that they can play quaterback better than Favre, quit "talking the talk and walk the walk". All I have to say is more power to you!

Personally I am a Bears fan (always have been and always will be) but my husband loves the Packers and from what I've seen I have to admit that Brett Favre is a very good QB. I personally think that it was just a bad game for him. We all have bad days and obviously this was one of Brett's. Take it easy on the guy. He can't be perfect all the time.

LMAO blackirish, that is soooo funny, me and my husband are sitting here laughing our butts off at you, that is so true too!! lol hahahahahahahahhahahahaha!!!

aaron rodgers has played one game lets not put him in the hall of fame, he did a fantastic job!! And to all the the favre fanatics, pumpkin head brett favre is not god, he is a great quarterback but there have been many more before him and THERE WILL BE MANY MORE AFTER HIM lets not act like the whole game of football revolves around brett favre, and talk about rex grossman he is on the BEARS, we are not whining about the dallas games you all are. so talk about the bears all you want, we all know that the packers fans are mostly whining, if not cussing at everybody who doesnt like the packers!!! im waiting to hear all of the shot guns load when brett favre finally leaves!!!!!

my opinion farves records speaks for him,he is the best qb over time.i'm a dedicated packer fan but i do see good and bad no tunnel vision here, i hate to say it but i think farve choked a little bit thursday he's been doing good down feild but not thursday.but in GBs defense the coboys capitalized on woodsons injurie.and keyed on bush alot.i also know theres life after farve rodgers did a great job whats he have a hour of regulation game play sitting behind farve. GO PACK

chafertape, did you see aaron rodgers? pretty good game against the best team in the nfc. better than your qb did against the cowboys and the bears were at home. lol. rex grossman, brian griese, kyle orton. aaron rodgers is better than any of them by far. dont hate because you guys cant EVER find a qb.

and sosideforlife. your an ignorant hater to. check your numbers before you spew garbage. favre has played 17 seasons. guess how many marino played-----17 moron. and favres percentage of interceptions to attempts is less than many of the greats. fran tarkenton, joe namath, terry bradshaw, warren moon. they all have higher interception percentages than favre. and aikman, marino and elway are exactly the same as favre. you dont have to like him but you cant deny his achievments. maybe if you had stayed in school past the 3rd grade you would understand math.

Personally, I think Favre is TOTALLY OVERATED!! He SERIOUSLY is! He is NOT as "GREAT" as everyone seems to make him out to be! Sure, he's got "An Arm", so they say, but it's EXTREMELY UNACCURATE most of the time! (WILD THING!) Yeah, he's got alot of "Records"-Ex: # of times he has conseq. started, amt. of wins/TD's by a QB, etc."...BUT, he SHOULD hold those, look @ the amount of yrs. he's played! HOWEVER, he ALSO holds the record for amt. of interseptions he's thrown! Farve, I feel, totally lacks any sort of discipline!

typical packer fan's, start whining about what would have happened, THEY LOST END OF STORY GET OVER IT. i am a bears fan and proud of it, let me ask all you packer fans this, what are you going to do when brett farve is gone, I know..... you will find something else to whine about!!!!! oh brett farve this and brett farve that, come on now brett farve is a great player who has carried the packers since he started with them, now what happens when he is gone, i dont think they will have the same luck again getting a great quarterback!!!!!!

there are plenty of players that have played longer than brett. vinny testaverde is playing now at the age of 44. brett just turned 38. and he may be gettin old but he is having a great year, for any qb. he is #1 in fan voting for the pro bowl.

maybe her is getting to old and feeble to keep playing. i dont watch or know much about football and sports but isnt he a senior citizan of the sports thing? does anybody know ages of older plays present or past that is up there in age too.

pablo you must not know football very well. just talking out of you ***. must be a bear fan and jealous that you couldnt even find one good quarterback out of the 20 that have started for you since favre has been in green bay. if you did know foot ball you would know that our coach was calling ridiculous plays when favre was in there. downfield every throw is not our strong point. its across the middle where the pack shines. when rodgers came in they went back to the usual game plan and it worked.

Not to mention the fact that he has played thelast 10 years of his streak after he discontinued the use of vicodin.

I agree gonzo. Vicodin and steroids are two entirely different things. Vicodin is a pain killer. Steroids are an intentional attempt to enhance athletic performance. No comparison.

vicadin is hardly a performance enhancing drug

Question. I heard a National sports guy ask this question. They were takking about Bonds record and if it should get an * because of the steroids. HE (not me) thinks Farve's records should get an * also because if we was not using and addicted to vicodin he may of missed a game of not thrown some of those TDs. Just a question. Like it or not he does make a point.

Farve is still a good QB but he dosen't walk on water. Aaron Rodgers made it a game. If it was not for a sieve like D they might of won. Can't say the same if Farve would have stayed in the way the was playing. He just did hot have it for that game.

Collinsworth has 5 Emmys. They won't be dumping him any time soon.

A record of 10-2 speaks for itself, where are you Bears Pablo?

For as poorly as the Packers defense played, the game was close. I'm so tired of hearing people rag on Favre when he has a bad game. Without Favre this season, would Green Bay be 10-2? I think not. Rodgers did wonderful last night and I'm much more optimistic about the future of the team when Favre retires, but I don't see any way the team would be better this year had Favre retired. McCarthy is doing a great job as well, but for some reason last night he completely changed the game plan. A flea-flicker? Seriously. The offensive play-calling in the first half was questionable at best.
As far as NFL network goes, Chris Collinsworth has always been one of my least favorite commentators. He's just not good. He's one of the guys that was all for Favre retiring last year and then last night talked about him like he was God. If the NFL network wants to continue to build, they need to get rid of Collinsworth.

That game wasn't a very good advertisement for the NFL network. I thought the announcing sucked. There was so much dead air I thought I accidently muted my TV. When Bryan Gumbel did attempt play by play it was not only terrible, it was incorrect much of the time. The NFL can have 'their' network...I won't be buying it.

As far as the game..it was a scrimmage. The real game will be in January. I'm glad the Packers didn't show all of their cards. Get everyone healthy, make adjustments and let 'em have it in January.

I am a Packers fan and I do like Favre, but.... we do have to admit last nights game was going south with him on the field and Aaron Rogers did amazing.

You are right, Pablo. Had Favre stayed in the game wouldn't have been that close because the Packers would have won! Love him, or hate him, that is fine. But atleast have respect for the kind of player he is!

for him to be 38 and still playing like he was 28 thats a great accomplishment in my eyes..if not for anything hopefully he can at least start the next game so he doesnt break that streak he has..

Eat cheese Pablo. Favre is one of the best QB's ever to play.

This was one game.

it's time everyone stops kissing Favre's butt all the time. Everyone knows that if he would of stayed in there it wouldn't of even been that close.
