I know you are aware of Brett Favre's age crisis in comparison to other NFL quarterbacks but my question this week comes from the continuous coaching decision to start Brett Favre each and every week even though he is off to one of the worst seasons ever in his 20 year career? not to forget his 291 regular season consecutive starts is in jeopardy becacuse of an ankle injury. in recent news Brett has come down with an ankle injury that may put him out for week 8. Vikings coach Brad Childress said that Brett's ongoing record will not influence his call whether to start Brett on week 8 but that he will base his decision on whether Brett can do the motions that are required by the position. the question that i am asking myself is Brett's unproven back up Tarvaris Jackson even able to play to the level that the Vikings are asking of him or on the other hand should they give Jackson a shot because what they are doing is obviously not working due to the fact that they are off to a 2-4 record and second to last in the NFC North division. I would like you to make the call, even if Brett was mildly healthy for the game would you start him or would you start to look for alternatives to replace the ageing, ailing Brett Favre?

I think Favre is done. However, I think he was done before the season started. I think it was a dumb move on Childress' part in bringing him back in the first place. At this part in the season though, since you already committed to having him as your QB, I think you need to stay with him the remainder of the season because of his past. He better retire after this year.
ReplyDeleteCompletely agree with you Kevin, when Farve said he was retiring again this summer I thought it was a good call. Then he said he was coming back and now look, it is not going well for the old man.
