No, Gray, he wasn't. He was a huge part of it. No doubt. But Favre was the straw that stirred the drink. Both units were #1 that season, but White had better seasons in Philly. He was a very good defensive player in '96, but Brett Favre had an MVP season that year and was clearly the best player in the league.

No arguement here. Farve was the real deal. No question.

McMahon over Favre? Dude, come on, you're reaching with that one. And I think the Bears defense had something to do with those wins. Favre is going to Canton - Jimmy Mac isn't.

Best QB I ever saw? Has to be Joe Cool.

I told up front, I'm baised on this one. lol

That's a tough one for me. I think the world of Montana, but I tend to place Elway above him because of the reasons I mentioned earlier in this thread. I would never call Montana a system quarterback, but Steve Young's success kind of bolsters the argument for some (and I think that was one of the reasons Montana resented Young so much).

I understand. But when you're declaring someone the G.O.A.T., you generally have some basis on which to make that declaration.

That, and it's fun to discuss...

A playoff-losing interception is a rough way to end a great career. Not exactly like Jordan's last game as a Bull, is it? lol

I'm surprised, he had a great season, maybe he was hurting more than anyone knew.

Isn't his name spelled "Favre"?
It's always bothered me that his name isn't spelled the way it sounds.

That's the extent of my knowledge on him.

I tend to put Favre and Elway, in particular, in pretty lofty territory. I see them as guys that if you removed them from their respective squads, you had teams that barely registered on the NFL map. Especially in Elway's case. You look back at those Bronco teams of the mid to late 80's? On offense, it was John Elway and a bunch of guys. And if you removed Elway from the mix, that team doesn't even sniff a Super Bowl.

Favre is pretty much the same thing.

Reggie White was the reason GB won that Superbowl.




NO!!!!!

The only Packers fans are diehards. Being a Bucs fan, I hate the Packers with a passion, but I can't deny their dedication to their team.

Is this official? I just heard that Farve was reconsidering because he wanted to get Moss.

I was speaking in extremes. But the majority of cheeseheads are going to still be rabid Packer fans...

He made it almost 12 seconds into the conference without crying. I knew it was coming but, damn.

Guy has alot of passion.
Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it.

I'm so sick of the ass-kissing from annoying fans and the media. ESPN's going crazy with this sh!t. He's a football player - he's not a war hero, he hasn't cured cancer and he doesn't walk on water. Enough already!

I thought it was JUST me. What's up with this non-sense? I had 2 turn off ESPN radio yesterday. It was annoying as hell.
