I'm all about Jason Campbell as our QB. If Snyder offers Favre a contract after pursuing Cutler then Sanchez, then he might as well just cut Campbell loose. I really hope that Campbell has a monster year, then plays some serious hardball with Snyder when it comes to a new contract.

Worked out pretty well for Smoot. He's a Redskin now.

I hope he has a great year too...but playing serious hardball with Snyder will not work in our benefit. We do not want to over pay for anyone. You are indirectly implying that Snyder deserves disrespect, and Campbell didn't deserve to be on the trading block...but fact is, while I am a Campbell fan, the way he ended last season invited all this talk. You can't blame Snyder for wanting better at the most important position on the field. At least Snyder understands the importance of the QB position.
That being said, I fully expect a great season from Campbell, if not, I will be calling for his head come seasons end. No more excuses.

Are you John Madden with a man crush on Favre?

That's not the Favre that I saw last year.

He had some god awful decision making down the stretch. Blaming it on an injury is weak. Some of his picks were laughably bad. You said Mangini abonded the run down the stretch?? Didn't Thomas Jones lead the AFC in rushing??

Your sentence about Brady/Moss makes zero sense.

Favre threw 7 picks in 3 games in OCTOBER.

Does this mean that John Madden could return as well? LOL.

^^ John's eating a turkey leg somewhere looking at Minnesota's schedule.

Favre's shoulder is gone and is preventing him from being like he used to.

But Favre at 60% is better than Sage and Tarvaris at 100%. I think it's a perfect move for Favre and the Vikings.

I love how Favre just wants to stick it to the Packers and that will make for great games even if he doesn't do that well. I'm not in love with Favre I just want to see some good football action since I'm an impartial spectator.

I bet that's a relief to your new fiancee.

I hope that the Packers pound Favre into permanent retirement.
