At the beginning of the year, Favre was close to a few records.  \n\n(all following numbers are Pre 2006 season)\n\nCareer yardage \n\n1) Dan Marino 61,361  \n2) Brett Favre 55,983 \n\nPassing attempts\n\n1) Dan Marino 8,358 \n2) Brett Favre 7,977 \n\nCompletions\n\n) Dan Marino 4,967 \n2) Brett Favre 4,886 \n\nTouchdowns\n\n1) Dan Marino 420\n2) Brett Favre 409 \n\nCareer Wins\n\n1) John Elway 148 \n2) Dan Marino 147\n3) Brett Favre 143 \n\noh yeah, and and Favre can still get it done.  He's playing well this year, so to those who say he is washed up, sorry, but you're wrong.

I am sick and tired of him thinking he's bigger than the organization. He needs to stop being such a cry baby and decide one way or another. He called a press conference about his decision and then said,"I don't know what you're all doin' here, I ain't made my decision yet." \nYour actuall hurting the organization because they don't know who to sign Brett. The Packers don't know whether to sign Kerry Collins or not.  And they don't know how many snaps to give to Aaron Rodgers.  At this point, he purposely hurting the Packers. When this all settles, he will be retired.

It's simple.  You can't trade or cut a player like Favre because of his status with the team.  He's just like JoePa at Penn State.  Prior to last year, Penn couldn't fire him because of what he has meant to the organization.  EVERYONE wants Favre to retire as a Packer, including management.\n\nI think we as fans get crazy of Favre's indecision but because he is a general of the game and the team, he wouldn't do anything that would truly hurt the team.  He knows that he can only last one more year and they already have their QB of the future in Rodgers so that won't affect the draft.  Favre's indecision isn't going to hurt the team.  If he's coming back the Packers will take him with open arms.  If he doesn't, the Packers will give him a big hug goodbye, no hard feelings.

In my opinion, he will not end up signing with a team and retire for good.  I think last year was the first time ever he began to look "old" on the mound.  His age has finally caught up to him, and I think he realizes that, and that is why he will retire.

Too old to keep playing? No. Too old to play the kind of football the packers play? Yes. Give Favre a better location and he will be fine the next 2-3yrs. I think Bret still has a good arm and pocket presence. As they say, all good things come to an end. I am talking about the team in general, not Favre.

Favre...In Lambeau, in November, in cold weather. The man is unstoppable in those conditions.\nFavre has a 3.5/1 TD/INT ratio his last 5 games (7 TD, 2 INT)\nEli has a 1/1 ratio the last 5 games (6 TD, 6 INT)\n\nBoth Defenses are stingy against the pass. NE has given up 7 passing TD while picking off 10. Jax has given up 8 passing TD while intercepting 12. \n\nThe Pack wont be able to run the ball vs the Patriots so Favre will be slinging all day. \n\nGo with Favre

No he wont because since he isnt making any money he wont go and play another year in college where he doesnt get a paycheck and can still get injured..atleast in the NFL its considered a job.

The Green Bay Packer suffered a lot last year with injuries to Javon Walker, Terrence Murphy, Ahman Green, Davenport, and Tony Fisher. With all those injuries to key players, unknown players got the chance to step up and lead the team. \n\nThe Packers defense last year did a brilliant job of stopping the run, but lacked depth in the secondary. The Packers just recently acquired safety Marquand Manuel from the NFC Champion Seahawks. His youth combined with experience is just what the Packers need to liven up their secondary.\n\nThe Packers also sured up their defense by picking up DT Ryan Pickett. The combination of Kampman (who the Packers resigned), KGB, and Pickett is what is going to win games for the Packers. IF that trio get on a hot streak the opponents offensive line is going to have a tough time preventing sacks and starting a run game. \n\nThe Packers also re-signed key members to the offense by extending the contracts of Green and Kevin Barry. Even though the Packers lost kicker Ryan Longwell, I expect them to pick up Adam Vinatieri to establish an even better special teams.\n\nWith the 5th pick in the draft and a still lengthy free agency period, the Packers should be able to compete for the NFC North title. Mark my Words, If Favre comes back to play one more year the Packers will go 11-5.

I think that Favre should retire. He has proven himself to be one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game, and the Packers will be rebuilding for the next few years, so it would be best for the organization for Rodgers to step in and begin his reign as Packers QB. Although I think that he should retire, I do expect to see Favre back next season to try and prove that he is better than a 4-12 season.

They should if they want to win more games.  But they won't because they want to get Favre some of the records that he's closing in on.\n\nFor more on the Packers and the NFL, check this site out. http://factipedia.com/sportsblogs/

Nice predictions but I have to dissagree with Brett Farve.  He will never play anywhere but Green Bay!  He would retire if traded.

Thinkin Parcells will retire regardless of what happens. The sun shines brightly on the horizon and it's time to hang the hammock from the ole tree out back!  «:::!!

We won't know anyone schedule next season until this season is over.  I think the NFL post the next season during the pro bowl.

I think so, their schedule doesn't look that difficult this year and I don't think Rodgers is ready, and am not sure he will even be a good pro QB, all the other Jeff Tedford QBs have not performed up to expectations (Boller, Harrington).  The new guys on the offensive line have now had a full year with the team, and the odds of them losing as many RBs and WRs to injury as last year are slim to none.  Favre wants to go out a winner, not with the worst season of his career.  I wouldn't be suprised if he cut back on some of his high risk throws this year.
