    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Packers | Favre's return does not guarantee successTue, 25 Jul 2006 19:35:46 -0700Bob McGinn, of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, reports the decision by Green Bay Packers QB Brett Favre to return for the 2006 season does not guarantee him or the team success. Last year was a nightmare for Favre and the Packers. By his standards, he was awful and so was the team. Favre will give every ounce of himself to a franchise that means the world to him. In the end, Favre's decision to return probably came down to one factor: He hadn't had his fill of football. For the first time this decade, Favre will have a new head coach in Mike McCarthy, a new offensive coordinator in Jeff Jagodzinski and a new quarterbacks coach in Tom Clements. Aside from three new starters in the middle of a leaky offensive line, the personnel essentially is the same. "I think he'll be very effective. I don't know about Pro Bowl," Jagodzinski said. "His arm is as good as anybody's in the league. Still. Now he might have lost a step, but so did John Elway. He's still one of the top six quarterbacks in the league, I don't care if he's 37 or not." McCarthy, who carved out his reputation by developing quarterbacks, somehow must impress upon Favre that possession is a precious thing. If Favre struggles, the fans and possibly the coaching staff may want to see backup QB Aaron Rodgers play. Rodgers' dedicated approach and command of the McCarthy system impressed the staff during the offseason workouts.</div>http://www.kffl.com/hotw/nfl
