Brett Favre Maybe the New York Jets front office should make a call to Green Bay to get some advice.
The Jets are in the same position the Packers were in the last several years and it's not comfortable. They are waiting for Brett Favre to tell them what he's doing. They are are hoping that they'll have a decision from Favre within the next ten days. General manager Mike Tannenbaum told a New York newspaper that the team would like a answer from their quarterback before the NFL Combine on February 18th.
"We're putting together our off-season plan," Tannenbaum told the Daily News. "We hope to have initial feedback from Brett by the combine."
Favre, 39, was acquired
Favre and the Jets got off to an 8-3 start in the 2008 season but, New York finished the season 9-7 after losses in four of their last five games, and missed the playoffs.
The Jets signal caller finished the 2008 season with 3,472 passing yards with 22 touchdowns and 22 interceptions, and he was selected to his 10th Pro Bowl, though he withdrew due to injury.
The Jets late season collapse sent ripples throughout the organization, leading to the firing of coach Eric Mangini and the subsequent hiring of Rex Ryan.

Favre could also say he is retiring, and decide at the last minute he wants to play again. Just like he did with the Packers. Whatever he says, it means nothing. He is Favre, so apparently he gets to have is way, whatever he wants, when he wants. The world revolves around him... or so he thinks.

The Jets just cant take a hint or face reality. Listen to Peter King, Chris Mortenson, Michael Lombardi, etc. If you can't, read their lips. FAVRE WILL ONLY PLAY FOR THE VIKINGS.

Favre is a putz, talented QB yes, but still a putz. Why do we let this redneck hold NFL franchises hostage cause he cant realize hes to old to get it done anymore? How in the the world does this guy warrant the Pro Bowl with 22td and 22 picks thats no Pro Bowl Performance in my book. The Pro Bowl is for the best of the best not just cause your friends with voters and popular with fans. This guy is a joke have the decency to hang it up already an move on with your life. Make way for younger players to have a shot at their dreams, your is slowly becoming a nightmare.
