Is it his year?

[SASpen00XIII]

Slate.com had a great article this week about Favre and the difference between his stats and his image in the media. I know that he's not responsible for how the media lionizes him as a "good ol' guy" just wanting to play football, but I've detected a growing weariness from some football fans over it. You look at his last several playoff games and you get this:
1. 2005- 4 picks at home vs. the Vikings.
2. 2004- one win, and then bad passes vs. the Eagles (I'll give him a big pass on that one- 4th and 27 anybody?)
3. 2002- loses to Falcons, at home, 1st ever playoff loss at Lambeau.
4. 2001- Mulitiple INTs vs. the Rams.
I love the guy, he's fun to watch, but I fear he's at the Dan Marino-late stages of his career-thinks he can force the ball into anything-stage of his career. The Packers need a QB plan now and Favre needs to wind back and play within his talents. Still would love to see him over Brunell though :cool-smil
