Justice Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Brett Favre was finally released by the NY Jets. He was taken off of the retired list. He has no plans to return, but if he does, he is free to sign with any team in the league. Here's an interesting question. If, God forbid, Trent Edwards is knocked out for the year and Favre wanted back into the league, would you sign him to a one year deal or would you rather hand the job over to Ryan Fitzpatrick? I, personally, would rather go with Favre. How about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsaikotic Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 If we had to I'd say yes..he's been in the game so long it wouldn't take much to adjust to this offense....But I have a feeling he's already talking to Minny about going there..he wanted Minny last year but couldn't go due to Packers blocking him from going...I could be wrong, but I have a feeling he still tries to go.

DIE HARD 1967 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I agree the subject is interesting but I just hate his game. Way to many poor and intercepted passes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I agree the subject is interesting but I just hate his game. Way to many poor and intercepted passes Yup. As a number of threads have alluded to, our new offense has the makings of being very potent and now the focus is shifting to Trent Edwards staying healthy and being capable of stepping up to make it fly. Should the Bills find themselves competitive and in the thick of a playoff chase and Trent goes down for a spell, I'd much rather have a veteran QB with a helluva gun than anyone else on the roster. If we're already out of the picture -should this scenario develop- then giving Fitz or Hamdan quality reps makes more sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Hindsight Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 No Favre was awful his last 5 games. His shoulder is shot he cant make the throws he used to be able to thus making him not a good QB anymore. If he coes out of retirement he will make the team that signs him very unhappy because he will blow it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steely Dan Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Oh, for crying out loud. Is there no end to this absurdity? They're right though. Brett Favre should be picked up but the FO won't even entertain the idea. The FO doesn't want to win and they are much smarter than the Bills FO.

Leonidas Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Didn't they bring in Rosenfels? Seriously? That's your reason for not bringing in Favre, Sage...Rosenfels??? Oh, for crying out loud. Is there no end to this absurdity? No, unfortunately... Yup. As a number of threads have alluded to, our new offense has the makings of being very potent and now the focus is shifting to Trent Edwards staying healthy and being capable of stepping up to make it fly.

If we're already out of the picture -should this scenario develop- then giving Fitz or Hamdan quality reps makes more sense. So if Trent goes down week 8 you'd rather bring in a guy known for throwing interceptions in the clutch and having zero knowledge of our playbook rather than a brilliant (literally) veteran like Fitzy who can manage the game? Not even close. I think too many people here play too much Madden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, personally, would rather go with Favre. How about you? I'll take him in Denver. We have two second string players that will compete for the starting job. I think Brett throws way too many interceptions but I'll take him. I'd also take Jake Plummer back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
