Favre's team this year will be the Oak Grove High School Warriors. You can find him on the sidelines.

/Philidelphia Eagles for 2 games and 1 game in the playoffs after Mike Vick separates his shoulder and is out for the remainder of the end of the regular season and the playoffs. FYI, Eagles go 1-1 in those regular season games and loses in the first round of the playoffs. You guessed it, Favre continues his legacy by retiring for the next (not last) time after a late interception in that playoff game that seals it for the opponent, again. NostraDitka has spoken!

So excited. Maybe we can convince Carlos to come back.

Word is. They tossed him a new contract but he dropped it.

Los won't come back and I'm glad

But i think Philly is a difficult team because of the rabid fanbase. Say for example Vick gets hurt, Favre comes in and plays, and even if he plays great or just does enough to win, the fans rally behind him and now they have a QB controversy like last year.

OR, Vick starts playing bad, and the unhappy fanbase starts chanting "We Want Brett" or something like that. Remember in 2006, that backup Jeff Garcia played so well that fans wanted him to start in 2007 over Donovan McNabb. I think the eagles made a mistake by not re-signing Garcia that year, but it was largely due to McNabb's ego and hurt feelings.

Bottom line is i think he could be a distraction on any team if their QB starts struggling and they have the legendary gunslinger to turn to...

The only QB controversy I rememkber last year was in the media and only because Kolb was the starter before he got hurt. By the time Kolb could play again MV was on fire and most fans didn't even remember who Knolb was.

The way he has complained about having to practice and then all the hits he keeps taking I'm supprised he even wants to come back also. and I agree with you I doubt he would come back as a back up unless he's eyeing a team who only has a rookie and he might see playing time if there are injuries. I could also see him going to a team that has a huge chance of getting to the SB. Miami, San Fran I doubt he would go to.

When he came out with the statement he was not ready to retire or rather I think his brother said that on a radio station I kinda thought he was willing to come back as a coach not a player. Him coming back as a QB coach would mean he's not retiring also.

But I wouldn't mind the Skins picking him up if he was willing to play back up behind Beck. Thats if we don't keep Grossman. Grossman knows the scheme and system almost backwards and forwards, Favre would have quite a learning curve very similar to the problems we had with McNabb.

Well let's be clear, he's retired as a player. If he came back as a coach, that still means he's retired... as a player.

I don't think he's coming back, as a player or a coach.

I hope he just stays in retirement he was a great player he's too old to compete in a league with 400 pound people running after you though
