NFL 2022 Season

[manly]

After all that (lol) I'd still take Favre over Rodgers in their respective primes for my team in a second.

And I recall that Denver/GB Superbowl quite well.... it was AWESOME!
(especially when GB LET Denver score & take the lead ROTFL)

And there you have it, your opinion of Favre the player is just about your feels rather than any consensus of how good he is compared to Aaron Rodgers. (Like I said, at this time their careers are roughly similar, except Favre is way more error prone.)

You're welcome to take who you want to, I don't mind. My point re: the SB was that the Packers were at that time the "heir apparent" to the mid-90s Cowboys, and they shouldn't have lost the game. Predictably, Favre was not clutch on the final drive.

Anyway, I'm ready to bury this particular debate. You got Favre, I don't.

I've BEEN ready for this move!

(although "friendly disagreements" about football ARE a large % of the fun!)

Let's go! Football time!

Hopefully the same Lions who played in NY last week show up today and we get a competitive game!

Favre was a gunslinger so he was fun to watch. He was tough and he never gave up on a play. But he threw way too many risky passes hence why the stats reflect that versus Aaron. Brett was a great player but he could easily cost you a game because of his gunslinging style.

I don't like either of them but I would take Rodgers on my team first.

Drop Favre's numbers from the Jets and Vikings then look at them again just with Green Bay. (when he could still fully play)

He WAS too quick to "let er rip" sometimes and could drive you insane with the picks (plus he had a tendency to throw short passes way too hard) BUT he was also thrilling to watch and he played BETTER in big/playoff games.

Obviously as a Giants fan I'm biased in terms of the postseason and GB but nearly all of my lasting memories of Rodgers revolve around him failing to deliver in big games.

The Bills O-line is having serious problems!

 

[Torn Mind]

Von Miller injured.

 

[Torn Mind]

Detroit stupid. Running plays before the two minute warning....

 

[Torn Mind]

I call Amon-Ra St. Brown THE EGYPTIAN GOD CARD.

 

[Torn Mind]

Von Miller now carted inside.

 

[Captante]

Miller lost for the game.

 

[Torn Mind]

Diggs a little dinged. I think #97 of Lions did make late hard contact...

 

[Captante]

SIX red-zone picks for Allen?

 

[Torn Mind]

Great play by the Lions D to get that "tip and pick".

(My hate for Buffalo remains everpresent)

 

[Torn Mind]

Jared Goff...never fails to suck.

 

[Torn Mind]

Detroit is fierce but damn they can be so dumb at times.

 

[Torn Mind]

It is impressive to miss kicks...in a dome...

 

[Captante]

How can Josh Allen be so bad and yet so good in the same game ?!?

Detroit can't handle running qb's

 

[Torn Mind]

Seems like a more vintage Giants-Cowboys game...that is...competitive.

I'm pleasantly surprised so far!

Silly you. You've been observing your team improving every week since their first go-around; how could you be surprised?

After watching what Dallas did to the Vikings last Sunday?

And you're calling ME silly?? Not that I'm complaining mind you!

 

[MrSquished]

Something is wrong with Dallas because they should be winning against a team that has so many starters out.
