Does anybody remember what they were doing for the last three years? I remember what the Green Bay Packers were doing…LOSING. The consecutive mediocre seasons got to the point that made Brett Favre question his physical ability due to his “old age.” He literally was one press conference away from retirement at the end of last year’s football season. He decided to stick it out though for one more year. He liked the team he had and was confident he could lead them back to becoming a dominant football team.
Favre’s intuitions were right about his 18th NFL season as he leads his 10-1 Packers against the 10-1 Cowboys for an old school NFC showdown. Despite the fact that Green Bay hasn’t won in Dallas since 1989, this year has shown that Brett Favre and his Packers are very capable of overcoming obstacles. Favre is underway to having one of the most successful NFL seasons as any quarterback in history. This season he has already become the “most winningest” QB in NFL history and also has the most career TD passes. He has proven that the age of 38 is not ancient in this sport like once suggested.
It is still a question as to whether or not the Packers have the drive to win Super Bowl rings this year. However, it will still be fun to see what other records Brett Favre will break in these last 5 weeks of regular season play. Also, will he have the inevitable press conference this year announcing his retirement or will he push it off one more season? Only time will tell these questions along with the other methods that the Patriots are using to cheat.

Brett Favre has proven this year that he is still capable of being a top NFL quarterback. However, I think he is going to pull a John Elway and retire while at the top of his game. He will be remember as one of the all-time great, espesially after this season.
After that loss last night, you may see some new thoughts. Although Favre says he is fine, he did sit out the rest of the game and did in fact injure his throwing arm. Only time will tell if this injury will hinder his future.
Brett Favre I must say was on the top of his game until last night. I believe that this injury might end his career. It would suck if that was true because I want to see Favre succeed in the playoffs
