Favre was a pro-bowler last year. Rodgers is unproven, having played in 3 games with extended playing time and been injured twice. He has missed more games backing up Favre in two years than Favre has missed in 15. Yeah, he could play and be great, but so could Brohm. Trading him and picking up someone else wouldn't be a great loss.
Sure, we could try to set up a run-centric offense but Grant isn't a secret weapon anymore and especially with Rodgers back there he would run into 8 man walls and be considerably less effective.
I like Rodgers, and I think he's a great guy and a good player, but out on the field he is replaceable. Better to make a run at a championship with Favre while some of the older receivers like Driver are still around and take a year or two to get going with Brohm than to just take a year or two to get going with Rodgers while suffering criticism and bitterness from fans because of what might have been.
If they can keep Rodgers without completely dividing the locker room somehow great but if it's Rodgers or Favre, Favre is the obvious choice. Benching him would just be a joke.
