To be honest would you want to start in an new offense and know if you mist up bad this year could mean alot?. Not to mention more pressure after and having an un-questionable QB drafted to maybe end up taking your spot?.

Seriously - I don't mean this to be rude or to be a jerk. But, you've entrenched yourself in an indefensible position, and it's time to let it go.

I understand what you are trying to say ("Favre knows the WCO better than JC, so Favre is a better short term solution"), but the latter simply does not follow the former. Favre does know the general principles of the WCO better than JC, but he doesn't know Zorn's implementation of it, he doesn't know the personnel in DC, and he has a history of being a gunslinger and a non-existent tutor for younger QBs.

Bringing Favre in here simply delays JC by a year, undercuts his believe in management's confidence in him, and puts us back into the 2000-2004 mindset of quick fixes. It's just a flat-out bad idea.
