    Default Should Favre Retire?

    Crossing paths
    As Hasselbeck gets better, Favre declines quickly

    Matt Hasselbeck spent the first two years of his career as an understudy to Brett Favre in Green Bay.

    Brett Favre keeps getting worse and Matt Hasselbeck keeps getting better.

    Hasselbeck, who backed up Favre in 1999 and 2000, was one of three quarterbacks this month who moved ahead of Favre in the NFL's all-time passing rankings and both Hasselbeck and Favre finished off a unique month with an unprecedented performance.

    Favre threw for 317 yards against the Bears with no touchdowns and four interceptions. That's the most passing yards with four or more INTs and no TDs since Patriots QB Drew Bledsoe threw for 331 yards and four picks against the Eagles on Dec. 19, 1999.

    In his last four games, Favre has no TDs and nine interceptions and a passer rating of 49.5. He had as many games without a TD pass in his last four games as he did in the 64 games that preceded the skid.

    Favre has thrown 10 interceptions since his last touchdown pass. In his first 14½ NFL seasons, he never threw more than five interceptions between TD passes.

    In December alone, Favre's career passer rating has fallen from 86.8 to 86.1, dropping him from eighth in NFL history to 11th. He fell behind Otto Graham (86.6), Hasselbeck (86.6) and Dan Marino (86.4) this month.

    Since halftime of the Packers' Nov. 28 game against the Eagles, Favre has thrown 184 passes while Redskins RB Clinton Portis has thrown two, but Portis has more TD passes during that span (one).

    Favre's 28 interceptions this year are exceeded over the past 17 seasons by only then-Buccaneers QB Vinny Testaverde's 35 in 1988.

    Hasselbeck, in his last three games, has thrown only five more incomplete passes (14) than touchdowns (nine). His 76.1 completion percentage in December is the highest in NFL history for the month, and his 135.5 passer rating in December is fourth-highest in history and the highest since Dave Krieg's 149.4 in 1986 (among QBs with at least 80 attempts).
    Everyone's favorite old person is back... or is he?

    No way! Get that team back to full health and they'll be on top of the division again, Brett has just been trying to hard to make things happen but once he gets Javon Walker and Ahman Green back next year, if they do, then they'll be just as good as before.

    I don't think Bret should retire as he still has a couple of good years left in him before he retires and becomes a certainty for the Hall of Fame,And would love one final Superbowl win with the Packers.
    Iam sure next year when all those injured players return to the team the story will be totally different and Bret will be back to where he belongs as one of the qb of the season who any tea would be glad to have as their playcaller..

    Please retire for the love of god. I'm getting tired of him rolling over my Bears.
