Brett Favre Can Sign With The Vikings, And He Should | NFL | Minnesota Vikings

0	Farve was a decent QB in his day. We need a good QB NOW. Not the old, withered shell of what used to be. While yes, sticking it to Green Bay is the dream of any Vikings fan and this all sounds great in theory, the whole Brett Farve sucks as a QB now thing is something I have a problem with.

1	Tavaris Jackson is faster, has a stronger arm and throws about as many ints as farve. So why spend the money? QB is not the key cog of this offense!

1	Favre was good, maybe great, but he'll never be as great as HE thinks he is.

1	How could any Vikes fan want Favre he is a mistake prone QB with your running game and defense, you need a simple QB who will just manage the game, and not throw ball up for grabs, Favre is done and is a joke.

3	You can't even imagine how crushed I would be if this happened. Please Brett, stayed retired. The last thing I need to see if the greatest player in franchise history lead the damn Vikings to a Super Bowl.

QB isn't all about what you can do physically. He is too green and doesn't seem to be getting any better.

1	Based on what Favre did for the Jets last year (especially in December), why is this a big deal? His biggest cheerleader in the media (John Madden) has retired.

He was horrible in December, but he was being depended on to win games. That wouldn't happen in Minnesota. He could manage games, which he can still do.

When has he managed a game, he blew it for the Pack 2 yrs ago, he threw 2 int late in game to give the Gmen the win, he was lucky on the 1st one as the player who picked him fumbled the return back to Pack, but not to worry Farve threw another one next series to set up winning field goal for Gmen. the Vikes would be crazy to bring him in

Farve's "mental" game, when in doubt chuck it up. Even a green QB can do that! Of course a future HOFer that can't make a decision (retired not retired) is surely the answer for the vikings.

He wasn't managing a game back then. He was that whole Packers team. He won't be that in Minnesota.

He blew the game, what do you mean the whole Packers team, didn't they have the #3 defense in football that year. you gotta be blind. take the eye test it tells you Favre is done, the Jets would have been better off with Pennington last yr.

That same team went 6-10 last year. They weren't any good because they are a bunch of nobodies. That whole team was built around Brett Favre just like last year's team was built around Aaron Rodgers. The Packers are awful.

1	They didn't go 6-10 because they didn't have Favre they went 6-10 because their defense went from on of the best to one of the worst .

Right, and the whole defense was a facade. Offenses had to pass, pass, pass because they needed to keep up with our passing offense. This year that didn't happen. I'm not blaming Aaron Rodgers. The same thing happened to the Bengals. They had one good year built around the pass offense, but you can only get away with that for so long. In Minnesota, Brett wouldn't be the focus of the offense, let alone the whole team. Its a completely different situation and not even comparable.

Brett Favre should stay retired and the Commissioner should tell him sorry once the papers are in this time that's it you are now retired, but if the league gives the OK and the NFLPA doesn't fight the idea let him play for the Vikings this season and if he decides after this up coming season to retire for a 3rd time that's when I'd say "Brett, Enough is Enough either you are retired or your not" and that's the time Commissioner Goodall should put his foot down with any player in the NFL hand in your retirement papers 3 times but not retire. Here's a phase everyone should know 3 strikes and you out , retire 3 times and stay out of the NFL, NHL, MLB, MLS, or any pro. league

0	I hope Favre stays in the game because if he does he will go to the Vikings and he will probably not return next year so the Vikings will have a good bank so they will only have to pay him for 1 year.

This is what I wanted to see last year. He's a better option than what's than what's on their roster. To be honest, I was really hoping McNabb could get traded there. Philly will never appreciate him, and despite what people may think of their draft, I think it's going to prove that their management really doesn't know what it's doing. Put him on the Vikes, and u have a team that could not just make a run, but could really pull the whole thing off.

I agree somewhat I love the Vikes and yes Philly doesn't have a forecast of starting to love McNabb. and Sage Rosenvelt isn't a 5 star quarterback and neither is Jackson I would say Sage is a 2 and a-half and TJack is a 3 Brett is around a 3 and a-half or a 4
