He is drastically overrated.

no he's not. you can easily argue is the greatest qb of this generation, and possibly all time. (and if you go by records and stats, he is the greatest QB of all time.

If you measure him by championships won, he is the same as many other QBs with one Super Bowl.

dan marino doesn't have a ring, does that mean he was a crap QB and what he accomplished means nothing?

Great, he has a whole bunch of records. Football has never been about records. And with the way the game is passing oriented now, its just a matter of time til he loses those.

how is the game passing oriented now when you got teams that build around their run game/rb still?

if football isn't by records or stats how else do you measure someone elses greatness. he was a unreal leader too, watch any interview where players/coaches talk about him and they'll all say it.

so you didn't watch him at all last year eh? the unreal season he had. and speaking of stupid mistakes, that's all the peyton manning does in the playffs and he had pretty similar numbers that favre had during the regular season.

favre can still play fine.

Yeah I watched him and I watched him throw that last minute interception in the playoffs too.

His playoff record isn't good, but you can't deny his overall regular season and career success. Manning is constantly revered as the greatest QB of all time, and yet he's won and lost one Super Bowl each. The greatness of his success revolves greatly around his regular season success. Manning has lost just about as many playoff games as he's won, if not more than. Favre is costly in the playoffs, but to deny what got him to the playoffs isn't purposeful ignorance imho.

I don't care about Manning, Manning has nothing to do with favre's retirement antics.Regular season wins mean nothing if he can't win in the playoffs anyway.

I'm tired of seeing him on tv with his wrangler jeans.Retire and go away or stay and shut up about retirement.

Maybe he'll be forced to retire when he falls and breaks a hip...

Dan Marino says hi.

I'm sorry but you can't discredit 285 consecutive starts. 40 years of age and the guy STILL has it.

wow, one mistake. must have been his fault that the defense couldn't make a single play to hold back the saints if their lives depended on it too right? :rolleyes:

i bet you think mcnabb is a good qb too (Y)

Ann Carroll Favre speaks! He says he's playing...if he's healthy!!

It was his fault he had the chance to come back and win. But noooo he chokes and throws the ball right to the defender.

Take into account the talent Favre had around him in Green Bay for almost his entire career. It was mediocre at best. Regardless of people's ranking him among the great QBs of seasons past (of which he's definitely top 10 at the very least) he's a joy to watch. His excitement for the game at 40 is more than kids fresh out of college just starting their careers. It's also not his fault that the media wants to make a circus out of him. There's no news in the off season...of course they're going to try to generate a buzz around someone.

It's called trying to make a play. Come off it.

Actually it was going straight to Rice, Porter simply jumped the route as he did in the Super Bowl against Wayne. Two moments I shouted at the top of my lungs :D

He did throw it across his body into traffic, a bad call, but Rice didn't go to the ball and waited for it. Two wrongs don't make a right, the rest is history.

He didnt jump the route he was following the WR more like and favre being the lame QB that he is threw it.

alright mister perfect, have fun cheering the eagles into another losing season (Y)

Really the defender was right in front of the WR.

no he wasn't. he jumped into the play after favre made the throw. the WR didn't come to qb. it was both their bad.

Losing season?The Eagles havent had a losing season since what 05/06?And that was the exception.

Yeah to bad even the announcers said he shouldn't have thrown the ball.

fine, not a losing season, just another year where mcnabb barely makes the playoffs and chokes harder then a ######.

and it definitely, DEFINITELY had nothing to do with the fact that mcnabb played like crap, ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with the eagles qb.

Sounds like a typical philly fan...

Neither has the Vikings...

Thread isn't about the Vikings. It's about Favre. Who has won more Super Bowls in 19 seasons, than the Eagles' franchise.

    • They couldn't have done a better job, this is beautiful!
    • Oh, of course not. The real "victims" are the people who snipe kids in the head, have killed more journalist than all the worlds wars combined, do double tap strikes on medical personnel, claim history started on October 7th, have a $700 million dollar annual Hasbara budget and pay influencers $7k a post to spout exactly this kind of propaganda. How dare you question the most moral army in the world. Victimhood belongs to these genocidal freaks alone. Anyone who denies that is literally Hitler. If you're going to support a terrorist state, the least you could do is come up with better talking points.
    • Gears of War: E-Day brings 12-player co-op, smoother traversal mechanics, and more by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Right as the Xbox Games Showcase came to an end today, The Gears of War developer The Coalition took over to show off its next project: E-Day. This prequel project was announced back in 2024, but now we have a lot more details about its campaign, new gameplay mechanics, and even a release date. The studio says this is the first time it has managed to get the time to build the entire game in a new engine, as it had worked non-stop on new titles for years while porting classic code and assets. With Unreal Engine 5 now powering Gears of War: E-Day, The Coalition says it started completely anew, with all assets, animations, environments, and others being built from scratch. The campaign will take place across three days in the city of Kalona. The story will follow the events through the eyes of Bravo Squad. This is made up of the returning classic duo Marcus and Dom, as well as the new characters Mags Carter and Lucas Reyes. Watch the trailer below to see Marcus in action without his iconic armor and gear, just as the Locust invasion kicks off. The story will draw on classic Gears novels like Aspho Fields as well, with the studio even collaborating with author Karen Traviss. "That continuity is what makes the destruction land," says the studio. "In E-Day, you watch a living city torn apart—homes still lit, meals half-finished—while people abandon their cars and run for cover. Small details—a child’s toy, an uneaten dinner—make the loss real as everyday places collapse under the Locust assault." The movement system is getting a big overhaul here. Players will be able to slide while running, jump across gaps, climb head-height covers, and even crawl on the ground to avoid fire from enemies. As for the returning horde mode, The Coalition teased a new 12-player PvE mode. This will involve three squads of Gears going up against the incoming Locusts in larger city maps than usual. The studio says that it is going to reimagine the classic formula just as co-op games are going through a resurgence. Multiplayer was touched on today too, where Versus is coming back touting four versus four Gears PVP action set across Kalona maps. More details about multiplayer will be revealed later. Open beta weekends are kicking off this August for fans wanting to jump in early too. Gears of War: E-Day is releasing on Xbox Series X|S and PC on October 6 with pre-orders available now. It will also be a part of Xbox Game Pass on day one. Microsoft has confirmed this as an Xbox platform exclusive, as there are no plans to bring it to PlayStation or Switch.
    • Microsoft announces the return of Xbox exclusives with Gears of War and Clockwork Revolution by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft had plenty of announcements to make today at the Xbox Games Showcase celebrating 25 years of the gaming brand. Now, under the leadership of the new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma, Xbox games are going back to their original release methods. She appeared in the livestream itself to announce the return of Xbox console exclusives. This means two major upcoming games from first-party studios won't be coming to PlayStation or Nintendo consoles: Gears of War: E-Day from The Coalition and Clockwork Revolution from InExile. Both titles will only be coming out on Xbox Series X|S consoles and Windows PCs, ditching any plans they had for PlayStation. "These are not timed exclusives," confirmed Microsoft. "We’re committed to investing in and growing XBOX both on console and beyond." The company confirmed that any already announced Xbox titles for PlayStation, under previous leadership, will continue to arrive for the rival platform. This means games like the new Halo remake, Forza Horizon 6, Fable, and State of Decay 3 will still be available on PlayStation, either at launch or later. It sounds like any new projects announced by the company will avoid other consoles in the same way. Microsoft first opened the floodgates by bringing titles like Sea of Thieves, Grounded, Hi-Fi Rush, and Pentiment to PlayStation and Nintendo consoles back in 2024. Since then, almost every new game release from Xbox Game Studios has arrived for rival consoles alongside Xbox and PC. This decision follows Sony's plans to ditch its own multiplatform releases too. Outside of multiplatform live service titles, the PlayStation maker is even abandoning its PC porting endeavors that started years ago.
