Let’s Do It, Brett Favre

Share

If you didn’t think Brett Favre was going to play this year then you don’t know Brett Favre.

You can wonder about his ankle but the doc all ready ok’d it for play so what’s left to talk about Brett Favre’s anticipated return?

How about Favre’s legacy. A bad season at his age is forgiveable but another Superbowl win will do wonders for number 4’s NFL legacy.

Favre may own numerous statistical records but he comes up short in the hardware department. Two Superbowl appearances and only one Superbowl championship.

Joe Montana’s legacy is cemented by the four Superbowl rings on his hand. Favre has thrown for more touchdowns, yards and won more regular season games but without multiple Superbowl rings to go with it it’s going to be hard to include him at the top of the all-time best lists.

In Denver John Elway’s greatness was known during his prime when he took a mediocre Broncos team to three Superbowl appearances. Then he aged like a fine wine and rode off into the sunset a back-to-back Superbowl champion and Superbowl MVP.

But that’s rare in professional sports. Really rare.

Can Brett Favre pull it off?

  1. I say go for it! I have liked him ever since we beat them in Superbowl XXXII. Life is short, if he can get out there on the field than why not!? Do people really need to be so serious about football, enough to get upset? Upset just because some man wants to play football and still has the opportunity to do so. I am behind Favre!

    Why shouldn’t he return? I am impressed with his ability to to keep up with the best of them and I wish him the best this season… until they meet the Broncos in the superbowl.
