If we were 3-13 and not a win from the Super Bowl, then yes, put Rodgers in by all means. Should we rest Charles Woodson and Al Harris so that Bush and Williams will be better in 5 years? It makes no sense not to put your best out there when there's something to win. I like Aaron, but honestly, even at 38+ Favre is the better player.

He should have learned when the bad weather caused us to lose to a team that the Packers are superior to in Chicago , then we lose to a #5 seed that we were big favorites against. Coach , you must let the team practice outdoors at least once in a week leading up to a cold weather game.

Please move on Brett!! We love the excitement you bring to the game, but at some point this has to be about winning championships and not about fun and stats. We love that you won us a Super bowl, but since then you've had a poor history in the playoffs, and too many games that you've lost us. I'm still bitter about the Phili OT pick, and even more bitter about the Vikings game 4 picks, and now this latest OT pick. I'm so frustrated I can hardly stand it. No is the time to move on, after a nice season. We have a young team and I want Rogers to grow with them and lead us to future championships. I love you Brett, but please retire. Thanks, Mike I agree. Please move on Brett!!

I sure hope you are just baiting for responses because no sane Packer fan would want to toss away our "productive" HOF QB and leader of the team because a 8-8 team did not make the SB exactly one year later. Give me a break and show some respect to the young team that went 14-4 and to Brett for leading them there so soon !!!

The play was there, just well behind Driver. Driver tried to stop him momentum but couldn't. Much like Marino (and other QBs who throw a lot), Favre needs to be on the field and throwing something more than screens to stay sharp. McCarthy needs to realize where we play in the elements. Giants practiced outdoors the week before the game. Why? Because they understand it's important to get used to it. This was the second game McCarthy's lack of Lambeau knowledge has cost us. He's new and still learning. Since he has 5 more years, I sure hope he realizes that practicing in weather once in awhile is a vital to a team who's home is in a cold weather open air stadium.

How dare you. Brett is not a perfect player but he played some of his best ball ever. It is not all his fault we lost, nor is it even primarily his fault. We will be damn lucky if #4 comes back to the helm for next year. We here in Utah call you, sir, an asshat. How dare you. Brett is not a perfect player but he played some of his best ball ever.

A killer O-line and TERRELL DAVIS. Brady? He's always had a KILLER DEFENSE, now superstars on the offense. Favre made this offense. The defense played well all year but this game, our secondary proved overrated and we got NO pass rush. This is a TEAM GAME. That last INT was not a good throw HOWEVER if the DEFENSE showed up that game, it wouldn't be close. You can not put all the blame on Favre. We have the BEST older, veteran QB of ALL-TIME. You just have to have 52 other guys to play with him. And the TEAM didn't show up Sunday. It was better than the Chicago game, but we were outplayed and outcoached in every aspect. Simple as that. You can't blame it all on Favre, he got the team here. Charles: Favre is everybodies favorite Packer but hes nowhere near Montana, Elway, Brady, etc…

You look at the teams and specifically the receivers we have had with Favre. He had made great receivers out of average to below average receivers. Montana, Elway, and Brady have had much better receivers than Favre could have dreamed about. Hey, but lets not talk about our much feared running game that could not gain 30 yards in the NFC championship. I am sure Favre had something to do with the poor running game. His hand offs were poor. Give me a break!!! Al and both your supporters, we will all remind you when Favre is gone and we are looking for a quarterback like Scott Hunter or Jim Del gaizo!! "Do you remember those years!!!!!" Good luck, I hope you are all here to defend all the quarterbacks post Favre. Are we honestly going to let Al get us into a debate on Brett Favre.
