Could they have adapted to playing in a completely different system so quickly? Could they have won over the fans the same way? Could Warner have adjusted to not having a big time receiver in his arsenal? He didnt look so good in New York or at the end in St louis when he wasnt throwing to studs. Could he have adjusted? Who is to say any one of them doesnt just come out and play uncharacteristically bad for a couple of those games? Who is to say they don't lose one or two of those games and the bounces start going the other way. Pitt just lost to kc...cincy just lost to oakland...upsets happen in the NFL.

None of your silly speculation takes any of these factors into account. Its impossible to measure. Thats why its STUPID to speculate. GET IT?

fact is who have the vikings beaten that is really any good? how many of the 9 wins have come against a team with a winning record - exactly 2 - the packers, fact is they have one of the eaiser schedules to date in the league , it gets a little harder in the next 6 weeks , we will see how he does

Perhaps. And perhaps he won't play as well in the next six weeks. Or maybe he keeps it up. My point isn't that he is the greatest QB of all time or even the best in the NFL. The only thing that I maintain is that he is having a GREAT season and that his play puts him amongst the NFL elite...thus far.

I dont care what your schedule is-this is the NFL. You throw for 21 tds and 3 picks and you are having a great season any way you cut it. It is foolish to argue that.

I'm quite dumbfounded. What Favre is doing is amazing. He's also pissing me off that f'n ball hog!!! LOL! No way Jackson or Rosenfels equal what Favre is doing.

He is having a fantastic year. You would think at some point he has to start throwing some ints. Right now he is playing like a top 5 QB and could possibly be the MVP if the season ended today. He is having a fantastic season. As a packer fan I still know that the correct decision was made by the pack, because he would not be having that season behind our o-line, but with a great line and a great RB and some young talented WRs he is putting together a remarkable year.

I have no problem with this statement. At least in your scenario, its easier to speculate because we have actually seen favre work in that system with similar talent around him.

At the end of the day, Favre put the Packers in this position. He gave them no choice and they had to do what they had to do. I think ultimately he wanted to see what it was like in another uniform. In two seasons, I think he has seen both ends.

form retired with a bad hose.......to showing up a week before the regular season starts. at 40 years old mind you, to win the M.V.P would be unbelievable.

he isn't even the mvp of the team guys come on , the rb is the mvp hands downs

Peterson is no doubt the best player on that team, but Favre is bringing them to the next level. Peterson isn't having that great of a season...at least compared to what he has done the last two years.

AP has more fumbles than farve has interceptions. He is a great RB one of the best in the league, but they could not be winning as much as they do without Favre.

Yeah Martina looked like a winner tonight.
