The article is priceless.
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Brett Favre hadn't yet been outside for practice, so you can't blame the following statement on the heat:

"I really feel like this is, as far as talent is concerned, the most talented team that I've been a part of as a whole," Favre said Monday morning.

Say what?

Although it might seem like a far-fetched thing to say about a Green Bay Packers team coming off a 4-12 season -- particularly coming from a guy who spent the offseason wondering whether his team would be good enough to make putting off retirement worthwhile -- Favre is gushing about the wealth of ability he sees on the practice field.

This year's team is even more talented, Favre insists, than the Packers' Super Bowl teams of the mid-1990s.

"If we can somehow put it together, there's a lot of talent out there," Favre said.

Favre said the Packers' dominant teams of the 1990s actually weren't incredibly talented, "but we were very experienced."

There lies the major caveat to Favre's suddenly simmering optimism. He says this is also the most inexperienced team he has played on, and potential doesn't mean much when the pads go on.

But if the Packers' young players, especially on the offensive line and at wide receiver, can play at a high level right away, Favre said it's realistic to expect a major turnaround.

"It can be done," Favre said. "I don't know what to expect, but if the guys play to their level or higher, anything can happen."

That's a different tone than Favre struck for much of the offseason as he waffled about his football future.

Before deciding to return, Favre wondered whether it would be worth risking another possible 4-12 season and questioned the Packers' lack of activity in the free-agent market.

The Packers' biggest offseason additions came on defense, but Favre returned anyway.

Now, Favre said the only time he second-guesses his decision to return is when he feels the wear and tear from previous seasons.

"This morning, I'm like, 'What am I doing?' " Favre said. "It feels like I've got glass in my shoes. But I know from experience, even though every time we practice and every time we play and every season it may get a little worse, once I get on the field, it seems to kind of go away."

Favre seems far less optimistic about the state of his own body than he is about the state of his team.

"Honestly? My arm feels great. The rest of my body feels like I've been playing for 16 years," Favre said. "I probably walk around and run around like an old man. My ankles and my feet and hips all bother me. I can still play. It may take awhile in the morning to walk normal -- if I ever do walk normal -- but that's part of it. I can overcome that."

Favre already has sat out a practice session because of his sore ankle, and he plans to scale back his participation in practices this year to try to conserve his body.

"I don't anticipate feeling better," Favre said. "But by taking maybe mornings off and being careful to a certain extent, it will prolong my playing. I don't think it's anything that tomorrow I say, 'I just can't make it. I can't do it anymore.' It's just something you have to play with."

Just like playing with a new cast of teammates.

"New guys come in, you really can't worry about that," Favre said. "You worry about what you're doing, and I think that's one of the reasons that I'm still here."

Although he acknowledges the interior offensive line, including two rookie guards, is raw, he said the team has plenty of experience and depth at running back and tight end.

"If we had everyone healthy last year, it would have been a different story," Favre said. "How different? I don't know. I would think much different. This year, to me, the question mark is offense. If we stay healthy and our young guys play to par, I don't see any reason why we won't be much better than we were last year."

Favre also singled out rookie receiver Greg Jennings for praise.

"Sometimes size and speed play such a big part in decisions of an NFL team and you overlook the most important thing, intangibles," Favre said. "Can he get open? Can he catch? Can he catch in traffic? And some of those things remain to be seen, but I feel like he's kind of a natural at what he does."

Favre knows outsiders aren't nearly as optimistic about the Packers.

"I really believe that we're going to be better than people think we will," Favre said.

Hope and delusions spring eternal.Good luck Brett, enjoy the 3-13 season.

 
How dare Brett say something positive about the team in an attempt to motivate many of the inexperienced players. :rolleyes:

 
-- Favre Picked Five Times --Tue Aug 1, 2006 --from FFMastermind.comThe Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports the new Green Bay Packers coaching staff is a bit miffed after QB Brett Favre fired an incredible five interceptions Monday afternoon in practice. Just as he does after almost every play, HC Mike McCarthy spoke with Favre immediately after the interceptions. "What do you want me to say?" OC Jeff Jagodzinski said. "No, that's not acceptable. And let me tell you. We're going to get it corrected." Favre is coming off a season in which he had 29 interceptions, most by any quarterback in the National Football League since 1988. To have their veteran leader fire five on a day when he was splitting time at the position and practices were shortened because of the heat was far from what McCarthy wanted to see. Both Jagodzinski and wide receivers coach Jimmy Robinson said they wouldn't be able to tell exactly what happened until they reviewed tape. However, Robinson said he didn't notice a blown route on any of the five. "Here's the big thing," Jagodzinski said. "You can't throw down the middle late. You just can't do that. And I think a couple of them were down the middle late." CB Charles Woodson picked off Favre three times. "It's not just Brett," Woodson said. "It's the fact I've been doing it a long time and I can still do it. "There's been a lot of things written about me the past couple years as far as me being hurt and I've lost a step and this and that. It's really a bunch of nonsense. There's no question, if you go back and look at the games, I can play for anybody."

In a year where someone claimed to be misquoted in their own autobiography, this is the "most priceless quote so far"?

I don't think so.

 
OK, here's another gem from Detroit Lions WR Roy Williams:

(Roy) Williams said Martz has had high praise for the entire unit. “He said (Kitna) is the best quarterback he’s ever seen, and that includes Joe Montana and Dan Marino,” Williams said. “Jon Kitna is the best quarterback that he’s ever seen in his system. “He said it’s the best wide receiver corps he’s ever had and the best tight end (Marcus Pollard). Everything around him is the best he’s ever had. And he said, ‘I’ve been around some good teams, as you all know.’”

At worst, this is a 9 win team, and they'll make damn sure to win the opener, so you're looking at probably 10 for the Pack.

Don't be so quick to write off the Pack. Sure, it's tempting to make fun of an unproven coach and an aging veteran, but he's still Brett Favre, and he's actually got something resembling a defense this year.

This team probably is looking at a quick start and a hard run after the bye week as well as a good stretch run into the division-deciding game in Chicago.

Favre has led eight top-5 offenses and only two below top-15, his first season in GB and last season.

Favre is 140-84 for the Pack and 136-72 discounting last year.

You can't ignore numbers like that.

Laugh all you like now, but don't write off the Pack in Training Camp. Favre isn't Denny Green. If he says it's the best talent he's played with, I'd give him at least some merit.

This is a team that will surprise a lot of people this year, even though it shouldn't surprise anyone that a team with 11 of the past 13 seasons above .500, including an 8-8 transition year and last season's injury bug.

How soon we all forget....

MLBrandow,

That's a good point on the schedule, but I can easily see Week 1 (Chicago) and especially Week 7 (at Miami) going in the "L" column.

 
I think that MLBRANDOW has a great point about how fast the Packers have been written off. They were injury plagued on the O-line and they were down to there 4th string RB. Their #1 wr was out for the season, can it get worse??? The defense has a lot of room to improve but they are improving. I think Favre is going to lead this team to a decent record especially compared to last year. Favre isnt used to loosing, this year he turns the team back around to be competable and no longer a mocking point of the NFL.

Call me a Dolphin hater, but that is a 6 win team at best.And even so, you're still looking at about an 8 win floor.That's a far cry from the 4-5 wins most people are penciling them in for.

I know this is about the Packers, but Miami getting only 6 wins? You can already hand them 4 from the Bills and Jets, their defense is pretty decent and their offense has some serious weapons, not to mention a very good coach who knows how to win. I see them getting in the playoffs this year. If they don't beat out New England, at least as a wildcard.P.S. Favre is still the man and the Pack has a good shot at that sorry division. I think his comment was more for his teammates sake than what he actually believes.

P.S.S. DOLPHIN HATER!!

I'm glad somebody else mentioned this. On paper, the Pack has the #2 easiest schedule in the league. The #1? That would be the Bears, my friend. And you're supposed to win our division? Pshaw.

Even so, to think you're going to get double digit wins with that sorry bunch of cheddar heads is ludicrous. Admirable, and even a little cute, but ludicrous. There's more question marks in Green Bay than the Riddler's closet.

And so sorry to burst your bub, but the final game of the season won't be for the division title. Sure, it'll be Favre's last gasp in a place where he's been brilliant--Soldier Field--and my guess is he'll light it up. He won't have a choice, actually, because the Bears defense will be sitting all its starters for the playoffs.

The thing is, that #1 WR was traded, that 4th string RB might still be the starter, and the holes on the o-line have been filled with 2nd and 3rd round rookies. The Pack's offensive starters really don't look a whole helluva lot better than they did at the end of last season.
 
All I see is a lot of laughing and a lot of Packer hate, and very little analysis.

GB is likely to split with CHI and mow down both MIN/DET. Of course, we should expect CHI to do that as well.

I'm not saying this team is going to the playoffs or winning the division without a doubt, but to write them off so foolishly is just not looking at the situation properly.

 
Actually I thought the quote of the year was Coughlin's response to Shockey's: (On being called an ###) "Ya, my wife has been known to call me that now and again." Hilarious, who knew Coughlin had a personality?

 
I actually agree that this is a talented squad... but it is unrealized talent and far too young to win a Superbowl or make the playoffs, IMO... but heck they have improved that defense dramatically.

 
I think realistically the offense will start slow and take time to develop. Too many new cogs including the blocking scheme.

I do not worry about RBs or WRs. Whichever RB is in there will do okay and the WR issue only raises its head when they did not work out in training camp with Favre. As long as they do, he will make them work.

The denfense will do much better at sacks and turnovers this year. Not sure about stopping people.

I see them just short of 8-8 and the Bears 9-7 or 10-6. If they can hit that, the Packers have a shot at a Wild Card...

BUt I still think the Viqueens are much worse than any other team in the division.

According to the Packers depth chart, Coston is ahead of Spitz so there is only one rookie penciled in at the moment. This could change, but from what I've seen and heard, Coston had a good offseason staying in Green Bay to workout and better prepare himself with the new zone blocking scheme, and has looked decent thus far. And even as a rookie, Colledge is an upgrade at the position. Don't for second think he isn't. If the Oline gets hit with injury it could be real ugly, especially if Tauscher or Clifton miss some games. They do lack depth right now, and I'm really losing all of my optomism about William Whitaker.

I can't disagree here. I wasn't watching real close the whole time so help me out here, but on some of those plays I thought he looked more lost than just being over dominated. Could just be my wishful thinking, and I'm hoping he was just lost and can get it together with time and more experience.
 
I'm not worried too much about Favre and his interceptions. I watched a lot of Packer games last season and the majority of those picks came when the Packers were behind trying to catch up from way behind. Also it seemed like they lost a lot of games by 3 points (Carolina and 2 Minnesota games come to mind), so that 4-12 is a little misleading considering how close a lot of the game were, but a loss is still a loss I admit.

Green Bay as just as good a shot as anybody to win the NFC North. I don't like Chicago this season. I remember after the 2001 they went 13-3, won the division, lost their playoff game at home and sucked the next season. I can easily see a repeat of that happening. Grossman and Griese won't make it through a season. Whoever wins the division will be 7-9 or 8-8.

Just out of curiousity...what is he supposed to say when he's asked about his teams chances? Should he have said we have a bunch of rookies and no real talent? I'm sure that would be a great motivator for the team. Also, as others have pointed out, the comment is only half of what he said. He followed it up with all the talent in the world doesn't mean much if you can't put it all together, and this is a very young, inexperienced team, so we'll have to see if we can put it all together.(yes, this is a paraphrase, but from listening to the actual interview, it sounds a bit more accurate than the article). Boy, that really sounds delusional to me. :rolleyes: The Packers games were very close last year. Without all the injuries they had, I think their record would have been much better. Oh, and another delusional comment from Favre..."If we had everyone healthy last year, it would have been a different story," Favre said. "How different? I don't know. I would think much different. This year, to me, the question mark is offense. If we stay healthy and our young guys play to par, I don't see any reason why we won't be much better than we were last year." Sounds to me like he thinks the team is ready to win the superbowl. :rolleyes:

All this Favre bashing is getting old. Taking risks is what has made Favre one of the best that has ever played the game...it also makes him a lot of fun to watch(and sometimes a bit frustrating). He loves the game and wants to win. If no one else is stepping up(like last year) he is going to try to do it all himself. Even the greatest QB ever can't do that.

 
Thought I heard last night from one of the "Three Monkeys" (you know - see no evil, speak no evil and hear no evil) on ESPN that Favre back-tracked on that "most talented team ever..." to say that it is unexperienced - nothing new there, but he went on to say that he (being Favre) wasn't sure if GB would even win a game this year....

Almost choked on my liquid intake when I heard that... :bag:

Did anyone else hear that comment?
