Mooch just spoke to Brett via cell phone live on the NFL Network and confirmed that he is coming back. Mooch said that Brett was watching when Mooch pulled out his cell and called him. Too funny.
Do it! Watching him play is a memory I'll hold dearly for the rest of my life . Im so excited right now!
If possible I'll go to the Bears game, so I can come on here and tell BF1 how I watched Favre tear apart their D in person

Are the Packers moving to the AFCS?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (DaPackersGb)</div><div class='quotemain'>WOOT! We got Favre!</div> As opposed as to never having had him until now.
Good chance he breaks ever record this year. Should pass Marino in Touchdowns and Passing Attempts. Yards is within reach as well. INT's should be his as well, thought that's not a good thing. He'll break everything.

now i want to know... how is he going to play while hooked up on a heart monitor?... nah but seriously he shoudl just retire hes had a good carrear/life he should just let it go and let green bay try and find a good solid qb that will be consistent give it up farvey boy we love you but uve grown too old for this young mentality game.
I think you need to stop looking at age and look at his physical condition. He's not declining, at most you could say he's become somewhat less mobile. He can still throw the ball well. The Packers finished 8-8 last year (ending with a 4 game win streak), one more win and they'd of been in the playoffs. So how, with that momentum, can you say, "you should just hang 'em up"? The Packers have a very legitimate shot at the playoffs next year, and every one knows, once your in the playoffs it's anybody's ball game.

Says the guy whose team has a 38 year old qb who took em to the playoffs
but hes a backup man... hes not there to lead the team.. sure he did good but only cause he fits good,really good in philadelphias scheme. But farve is too old come on now lets be serious the guys carrear is over i really dont see him doing much else. And yes good steady qbs are hard to come by but they could of picked up some youngins that farve could of mentored. Im sorry he just needs to give it up.
Ever hear of Aaron Rodgers? our first rounder whose been mentored the last two and now three years? How is his career over? He had a decent year, with the youngest team in the NFL, only way to go from here is up. He's still better than many of the other starting QB's in the league.

Was John Elway's career over too? I'm not comparing those teams but GB could really make a playoff run. They nearly made the playoffs this year. The Giants lost Tiki Barber. The Cowboys lost Bill Parcells. How can those teams get any better? Those were two of the playoff teams. The Packers have 30 million dollars to spend. Why not keep playing and break the records and possibly end your career in the playoffs. Who is going to be better for the Packers? Aaron Rodger isn?t. He has looked awful in practices and preseason. The free agent market is weak. Favre coming back can and will only help the Packers. Outside of Donald Driver, Greg Jennings, and Ahman Green can you name another offensive contributor Favre had to throw too? Yet he still threw 3800 yards and 18 touchdowns. By no means he's an elite QB but he did pretty good for a team most thought would win 3 or 4 games this year. There isn't a QB in the league not named Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, or Carson Palmer that could of done better with this team.
