I just saw on the NFL Network that the Packers made sure the Jets wouldnt trade him to the Vikes by putting in the contract that if he was to be traded, The Jets would have to give the Packers three 1st round picks so i don't think it'll happen...

The Jets are looking like the skins of 2000, though not nearly as good as that team was (which was pretty good when they were on, just not consistent). Maybe Brett will go out like Montana, who had took KC to the afc championship w/Marcus Allen, but my feeling is that the jets are in for a rough ride. There will be good moments for Farve & all tv coverage will show up jumping up & down, but in the end I don't see him taking them to the playoffs.

Good move for the Jets but I don't see how this is a good move for Favre. Offensively the Jets have few weapons, nothing near what Favre had to work with last year in Green Bay. I get wanting to come back to a team that was a play away from the Superbowl but to come back to a team that was 4-12? Don't get it at all.

Plus he's going to a team that doesn't run the west coast offense. It's going to be a big adjustment for him. The Jets seem like a very odd fit.

You know what just occured to me? Favre is on the cover of Madden this year. And everyone knows the "Madden Curse".

What if after ALL OF THIS turmoil and stuff, Favre sustains a season-ending injury?

I wonder if this is about fit or selling tickets? Know they Giants and Jets are getting a new stadium sometime soon.

Packers now have Favre out of the NFC, chances of both teams meeting in the Super Bowl is very rare.

so, if this turns out to be a colossal failure, is there any chance ol' brett humbly and quietly disappears into obscurity?

Good point. Wonder how he will handle the NY media if things do start to
go south. This isn't Green Bay. Brett is now under the microscope in the
Big Apple.

Heard someone say that Brett seems to suffering from depression. He is
a very needy person.

With what he's gone through in his personal life I wouldn't be surprised. Still, part of being a class act is knowing when to quit.

the irony would be delicious, that's what

I don't care for the drama but the guy has a right to do what he loves as long as someone is willing to hire him. He doesn't owe anyone anything. Even if he loses every game, at least he is playing. Once he actually is totally, finally done; he won't have to tell himself "I could've played a few more years." I'm sure he doesn't want that kind of regret...

I agree. I'm tired of the drama too but if the guy wants to keep playing go for it. I think it's a shame things went down the way they did, but it is what it is.
