>>356774 OP here. The thing is, pretty much everyone has been "overrated" by someone prominent in the media. And they've been "underrated" as well. My thing about Favre is that he did well in GB when he was hitting all those slant patterns, and yeah he could air it out from time to time.
But the real stat that they mentioned on MNF is that Brett Favre has NEVER won a game when his team was down by 14 points or more. Brady has. Manning has. Those two guys' teams don't play well without them. Conversely, the Packers aren't doing too bad this year. I think Brett's made a good career out of being a good, not great QB, in a good offensive system (along with a little bit of luck). Maybe that shouldn't take away from his wins or add to his losses. I dunno. But I guess I just don't agree with all the dicksucking he gets from the likes of peter king, tony k, and the other mass media guys. Brett just doesn't deserve a cult. A real field general wouldn't want one anyway.
