I can't really call him overrated, but he's gotten too much credit just because he's a 'good guy'.
I like the guy, though. He's the kid who wasn't that smart in school, but you rooted for him anyway, because he was a hard worker and came from a good family.
...
But at least he showed up to play today, unlike Romo and the 'Girls.

Showed up to play? Was that before or after he was throwing dumb int's all over the place. I hope the Farve circus ends this offseason. |

Time to hang it up...not sure that he will, though. |

The only downside of the Patriots missing the playoffs is the fact that they're gonna stick microphones in Joey Porter's face.

I don't care about stats. Montana, Bradshaw, Young etc... had worse "stats" but were much better players and decision makers.

Haha, another brilliant stat, "because he only played for a long time" and........... "he's not that good" Wow, you people are bringing out the heavy artillery |

What people compare Emmitt Smith to Barry Sanders? I don't know of any and I live in Dallas However Emmitt Smith is the all-time leader in rushing yards and anyone who is the all-time leader in any major stat is a badass, whether you want to admit it or not |

I've never seen a marquee qb with worse decision making skills. |

What I don't like is the drama he creates and how fans the media accommodate that stuff. Favre opens his mouth and whines then he's being a leader, but god forbid some other football player or athlete for that matter opens his mouth then they are out of line.

During the Giants vs GB game last year when the game went into overtime I told my girl "He's gonna throw a pick,he hasn't thrown one yet today". |

Favre has always been the same QB. Love him or hate him, he can make a play that makes your jaw drop or he can make one that makes you shake your head. What will always separate him was/is his sheer joy of playing. How many QB's jawed with DT's who sacked him the way Favre did with Sapp, for example? He always gave his team a chance to win, which is all you can ask.
It is time for him to retire. Don't want to be remembered as a hanger-on. Go out having turned the Jets into a winner and watching the Packers win 6 games after you lead them to 13 the year before with virtually the exact same roster.
Great QB, but his time has passed.

The all time records you speak of are because Farve has played for many years. How couldn't he compile big stats when he played as long as he did. Why did you leave out his int record, exactly. He's not in the same world as Marino and Montana, deal with it. |

Did you read the first post in the thread? Did I ever say he was in the same world as Marino and Montana? Perhaps a remedial class in reading comprehension would be in order for you? |

Better, probably, but how many superbowl rings does Emmitt have and how many does Barry have. Exactly!! End of discussion. |
