jweisk1 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Where did I say that those signings worked out? I am stating them as a reason for why the franchise would bring in Favre. No but you are saying you want to sign Favre and we are comparing the success of those signing to what the future would be like if we signed Favre...

RAAZ227 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Favre is OLD.. Time for him to retire. Whoever he plays for next season, I don't see him doing what he did last year. He's done! my 0.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FanboyOf91 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Redskins fans should also know that Brett Favre is 0-9 at Dallas. Doesn't bode well since we're, you know, in their division..... Good point. :notworthy /discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paige3girl Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I didn't see an argument against Favre there.Total Super Bowl Wins of Current Redskins QBs: 0 Total Playoff Wins of Current Redskins QBs: 0 Total Super Bowl Wins of Brett Favre: 1 GB Playoff Games Since 1997: 9 WAS Playoff Games Since 1997: 4 This is your argument against Favre? I don't get it. hey buddy... you do realize the Farve today is not the same as he was in 1997 right? And seriously, not really that concerned about JC not having an SB win either. The SB doesn't rest soley on the QBs shoulders. He needs someone to throw to. Why can't we once and for all build a team rather than buy a team. The buying old guys hasn't worked for us. I vote lets stick with our young QBs and grow from there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no reason they shouldn't have won! at home against the Giants...almost laughable...

paige3girl Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 at home against the Giants...almost laughable... Yes, you are correct. It is laughable that the Packers did not beat the Giants at home and you still think we should sign Favre and forget all about a quaterback whose potential we have not yet seen so that in two years we have nothing because JC gives us the finger.

jweisk1 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 That a declining Favre can do more damage in the NFC than Campbell that was your argument?? WOW So let me get this straight, you would rather have a declining Brett Favre for 1 too 2 years then a young promising QB? It is very similair to the 49ers in the 90's...they could have kept Joe Montana (who lets say for argument sake was equal to Brett Favre) or they could have gone with a younger guy who was 100% unknown but had lots of promise (Steve Young). Well they decided to go with the younger guy who had promise because it was better in the overall picture for their franchise...correct me if I am wrong, I think Steve Young went on to have a pretty good career, maybe won a few Superbowls too :whoknows: (before I get killed on this board, I am not comparing Young to Campbell, I am comparing the decision to go with the younger unknown player as opposed to the older proven Vet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was out played by a 36 year old who hadn't played an NFL game in years, proving that with a veteran QB at the helm the 'Skins are a dangerous team. No your right the Redskins are committed to youth and development. That's why for years they trade away trade picks. Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Snyder's method of trading picks for vets has not worked, intelligent fans don't like when he does that, do you understand that? We don't want Brett because we have a young QB that we're developing and Favre is old and expensive. There really isn't any other way to put it.

That's why for years they trade away trade picks. Right? You are making our case for us...Yes for years we have been into the whole "lets win it now philosophy", well guess what, we all have seen in front of our own eyes that you cant build a team like this... So for once we are trying to build a team, not buy a team and you think that getting Favre is the best way to do so... Dont you think getting Favre is reverting back to old Snyder and consitute "buying" a team?? And whats not promising about JC?? What was promising about any 1st/2nd year QB? There is a learning curve for playing in the NFL, mainly for QB's... So what is your 5 year plan...get Favre for 2 years...he retires...JC leaves via free agency...then what??

Heidenreich Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 The Giants lost on the road once last year. ONCE. 11-1 in games outside of Giants Stadium.

That's why for years they trade away trade picks. Right? Jason Campbell has played for a different Coach every year in high school and in college and since coming to the NFL he has had three different Offensive Coordinators. (I am pretty sure I have those numbers right... but if not you get my point) Tell me, how far along in your development would you be. A little consistancy goes a long way. I doubt even the great Favre would be able to handle that much change. Yet, despite it all JC has performed above average, I didn't say great, I said above average. More importantly he has improved each year and has become more comfortable in his own uniform. Edit: I looked it up... JC has had 7 offensive coordinators in 8 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
