If Favre returns for a different team who woudl it be?

No, I don't. If you'd like I can go back and bitch about his last couple of horrid playoff games if it would make you feel better.

The thing that jumped out at me from that is that Brady's and Delhomme's stats really are similar.

 

Brees or Bledsoe are more similar, but yeah, Jake had a good season statistically.

 

Their y/a are a lot lower though.

 

Packers | Favre's agent says Favre more likely to return with Mariucci as head coach
Sat, 7 Jan 2006 0659 -0800

Dylan B. Tomlinson, of PackersNews.com, reports agent James "Bus" Cook, said in a televised interview that Green Bay Packers QB Brett Favre is more likely to return for another season if the Packers hired Steve Mariucci as head coach. As it stands, Packers general manager Ted Thompson plans to interview eight candidates, but Mariucci isn't on the list. In November, Favre said he didn't think Mariucci would coach during the 2006 season, but it is believed Mariucci has told those close to him that he would be interested in coaching the Packers.

 

PACK DOESN'T WANT FAVRE - from PFT

Okay, the team hasn't said it. And they never will. But it's now becoming increasingly obvious that, at the same time guys like G.M. Ted Thompson say all the right things regarding quarterback Brett Favre, the team is sending off vibrations suggesting that the time has come for him to walk away.

Dumping head coach Mike Sherman was the first message, especially since Favre suggested during the season that the presence of Sherman would be a factor in his possible return.

Also, we reported after coach Steve Mariucci was fired by the Lions that Favre privately had said that he'd like to see his former position coach (from 1992 to 1995) return to the team as the head coach, if Sherman goes.

Favre's agent essentially has confirmed these rumors by openly politicking for Mooch to get the job in Green Bay.

"I think that would have a huge determination on Brett's decision," Bus Cook told WTMJ-TV in Milwaukee. "They do enjoy a special relationship."

But Mooch isn't on the list of eight candidates for the job.

Eight names, and Favre's preferred choice isn't on the list.

Maybe Thompson instead should hang a banner over Main Street that says, "Thanks for the Years of Loyal Service, Brett -- Now Get the Hell Out."

That's the import, folks. Thompson doesn't want the guy that Brett wants; thus, Thompson doesn't want Brett.

So the real question is whether Brett gets mad enough about the diss to continue his career in another NFL city. The mere possibility of seeing No. 4 in a different helmet is sacrilege for Cheeseheads, but it's a possibility that they all need to begin pondering.

We'd previously floated the possibility of Brett spending a year with the Saints, as the team returns for 2006 to Louisiana, which is a deep out pattern from his home town of Kiln, Mississippi. But now let's look at this a bit more realistically.

First, it would have to be a team that needs a starter. Second, the team would have to be willing to put Brett at the top of the depth chart, and essentially leave him there.

Next, the team would have to be otherwise set with receivers, offensive line, running game, and defense (which leaves out the Saints). Basically, Favre would have to be the final piece of a puzzle that otherwise is in position to contend for a championship.

As we scan the list of 32 NFL teams, we see only one that potentially meets those criteria. And it's the team that enjoyed the services of the last great quarterback who didn't win a Super Bowl -- Dan Marino.

Yep. We think it could work for Favre in Miami. Sign him to a two-year deal, plug him into the offense, let him do his thing, structure an attack around his strengths.

At a time when Fins fans are thinking big when it comes to getting a new quarterback, we think they should start thinking Brett. Because, as we see it, Favre is one of the few guys who could give the team a huge boost at the position, possibly enabling the team to play for the championship in its home stadium in 2006, and allowing Favre to ride off into the sunset a winner, not slink away as a tired and beaten old man.
