Will Favre come back for one more year?
477572
I agree with the others in the respect that he's going to need some help from the line if he does come back another year - which I think he will.\n\nHe's very kid-like in spirit and has only known football all his life. The way he talks sounds as if it would be hard for him to sit at home and watch games right now. He won't be finished with professional football until experts generally agree that he can't compete.\n\nIt was hard for me to stop playing in high school. He's treated like a god in the NFL; walking away from the excitement, the swooning, the royal treatment and traveling the globe in the name of his favorite game might be too big of a step for him right now (as long as he can still move).

Next year will be a rebuilding season. With a new coach, he will be given a free pass on the results next year. So, he is likely to begin looking for long-term solutions rather than using place-holder players (mid-priced veteran free agents). The Jets will have some significant salary cap issues with which to deal and likely will need to cut a few veterans to manage them. They will also need to find a long-term solution at RB. While Curtis Martin might be able to start for another year, even that may be too optimistic. Finally, two of their best defenders this past season, John Abraham and Ty Law, are unlikely to return (JA because he is unhappy with not getting a long term deal; TL because he is a cap problem).

Where we dont know for sure I would say its safe to assume he will return. My guess by eppy 3.

He'll make it sometime. \n\nBut still, I think that it's wrong that he's making the Packers wait. They should be able to persue other QBs if he isn't coming back, and while he isn't holding them hostage, his indecision is affecting the team.

Favre got a short shrift this season with all the Packers' injuries. I've always liked watching him play, no matter how maddening he can be with the gunslinging and the picks, because he has always seemed refreshingly honest about his love and passion for the game. I've been a fan of the man since the Super Bowl win over New England - after he ran off the field with his helmet in the air and the look of an 8-year-old kid on his face, how could anyone not like him?\n\nI wouldn't be surprised if he did retire this year, though I'd hate to see him go out on this note.

Absolutely NOT...Brett Favre deserves to retire or play elsewhere if he chooses =)  And if he leaves and goes elsewhere we will continue to root for him

I think if he were, he would have announced it already.  Last year he announced that he would be playing in 2005 at the Packers Fan Fest which was the 2nd weekend in March.  They haven't announced what players will be appearing at this year's Fest, but if he is there I wouldn't be surprised if he made his announcement then.  He has said he will definitely decide in time for the Packers to get ready for the draft in April.

No, not this year, he doesnt have the game experince and not only that his divsion has 2 other good teams to battle and get past. I would say 8-8 1st year as a starter and then 10-6

"Updated: 6:26 p.m. ET May 5, 2006\nFOXBOROUGH, Mass. - Tom Brady wants Doug Flutie to return for a second season as his backup. Like plenty of Patriots and Flutie fans, he’s still waiting for the 43-year-old quarterback’s decision.\n\nFlutie is considering retirement after a career that includes a Heisman Trophy from Boston College, three pro football leagues and his status as a hometown icon who started in the Boston suburbs at Natick High School and could end in the town of Foxborough.\n\n“I love Doug and Doug’s just an awesome guy so I would love for him to be here,” Brady said Thursday. “He adds an awful lot so I don’t know how that’s going to work out.”\n\nFlutie, who has been a hero in New England since his heroics for Boston College more than 20 years won him a Heisman Trophy, has said he does not want to play anywhere else. Last season, Flutie was the No. 2 quarterback for New England but played sparingly in five games, completing 5 of 10 passes. No. 3 quarterback Matt Cassel, a seventh-round draft pick last year from Southern California, is the only other quarterback on the Patriots who was with the team last year.\n\n“My role is to play quarterback and it’s not to make personnel decisions,” Brady said. “I think coach (Bill) Belichick knows how I feel about each player on the team.”\n\nFlutie’s agent, Kristin Kuliga, said Monday she thought Flutie’s decision probably would be made this week.\n\nThe Patriots already have lost three players who had much bigger roles than Flutie. Kicker Adam Vinatieri, linebacker Willie McGinest and wide receiver David Givens all left as free agents after the Patriots lost to Denver 27-13 in their second playoff game last season.\n\n“We’ve lost a lot. There’s a lot of value in those guys,” Brady said in his first news conference since that loss. “It’s obviously tough. You’re sitting there at home and it’s the offseason and you see other guys getting signed other places and you’re kind of looking in and you see some of your core guys getting taken away.”\n\nThe Patriots moved more slowly than other teams in signing free agents. They added receiver Reche Caldwell from San Diego and former Tampa Bay kicker Martin Gramatica.\n\n“Hopefully, we find other players to come in and take some of the burden off the guys that are still here,” said Brady, who knows he may have to adopt more of a leadership role. “As much as you’d love to keep everybody, when you have success, people are going to go out and say, ‘let’s go get that guy.’ Who wouldn’t want David Givens? Who wouldn’t want Willie? Who wouldn’t want Adam?”\n\nMcGinest and Vinatieri played on all three Super Bowl-winning Patriots teams over the past five seasons. Givens was on two of them. New England’s chance for an unprecedented third straight title ended last season in Denver.\n\nThe Patriots did add running back Laurence Maroney from Minnesota and wide receiver Chad Jackson from Florida in the first two rounds of last weekend’s draft.. But Brady cautioned against expecting too much from rookies.\n\n“To expect Chad Jackson to be David Givens, I don’t think that’s fair to Chad. David’s an awesome player,” Brady said.\n\nMaroney could share playing time with Corey Dillon.\n\n“My dad calls me,” Brady said. “He’s like, ‘can you believe this? We got all these great players.’ I said, ‘Dad, Dad, these guys are rookies. These guys have a lot to learn.’ “\n\nDeion Branch returns as one starting wide receiver. Caldwell, who has been working out with Brady for about a month, could be the other.\n\nBrady, a three-time Super Bowl winner, has been working out regularly at Gillette Stadium and said, “I feel great. There’s no restrictions” on his exercise routines.\n\n“I don’t ever feel like I’m obligated to be here” for offseason workouts, he said. “I feel it’s part of my responsibility.”\n\nBrady prefers to look ahead rath

Tough question...\n\nFarve being back, and knowing Farve as we all do, he'll give it his all. But it takes two to complete a reception.\n\nRB situation doesn't look too promising, but after all the ups and downs of last season who knows?\n\nD# needs to seriously tighten the ole belt, but it helps if your offence doesn't put you in a terrible spot.\n\nLast year, the offense self distructed with injuries and they STILL managed to come close to winning several games. But this isn't horseshoes OR handgrenades.\n\nAfter last year's terrible luck, I'm bumping them back up in the end of year rankings for 07, unless that turns into a streak. Then I'm writing another "Maybe Next Year" wish list to the fat man in red and white.\n\nSuperbowl? Nu-uh. Play-offs? Unlikely. This is a rebuilding year regardless of who is back and until Farve retires and a successor is found (Note: Not just a starter but a GOOD QB, so who knows how long.) don't hold your breath waiting to see that silver football in the hands of someone in green and gold.\n\nBut I wouldn't be shocked if they had a winning season either. That is what I love about the Packers. Unpredictable.\n\nDon't feel bad. I'm a KC fan first and foremost. HERM EDWARDS!? Bah humbug!

While it is still way too early to tell for sure ...It is not too early to state that \n\nAlex Smith actually saw some significant playing time this year and was disturbingly bad. He completed more TD passes to the opposing team than to his own team (which is not very difficult when you have not completed any TD passes to your own team, BTW). \n\nAaron Rodgers hardly saw the field while backing up Favre, but gets my vote by default. He would maintain this lead just be demonstrating the ability to successfully handle a snap and not give the opposing team the ball in an unbelievably stunning and quick manner...

He's done for the year - that much is certain. What determines if he comes back is the risk that he and the team are put under. No one wants to assue risk that he will be fine. \n\nShame too, he was part of a great young nuecleus that the Wings have assembled.

No.  He's good, but I don't think that he's back.  I don't see him doing it again.

i hope so...\n\nhe's dragging this out too long...\n\nhe could take his 29 INTs back home with him to Mississippi!!!
