Favre is starting to look a lot like an old placekicker. Very good in his day but needing a dome or warm weather team to continue their career.<BR/><BR/>Miami may not be 16-0 with Favre but i'd wager they'd be even better than the Pennington Dolphins. <BR/><BR/>conversely if Favre went to say, Buffalo, he;d probably be 4-12. Hell if he stayed with GReen Bay he might be 4-12.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07014233410007615111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1413451422114161954.post-61468599444244600052008-12-22T14:33:00.000-06:002008-12-22T14:33:00.000-06:00I had a discussion on the whole Packers cold weath...I had a discussion on the whole Packers cold weather myth yesterday.<BR/><BR/>I for one do not think it really exists having seen Jacksonville and Carolina win in Lambeau <BR/><BR/>Where the weather plays a role is when very good Packers teams play really shitty teams like when they played Oakland a while ago, either on or near Xmas on a day when it was Frigid or like last years game. When you get a bad team down a couple of TD's in the cold weather you can see them wilt. But good warm weather teams that have a chance to win come the 4th quarter do not seem to be bothered by the cold weather. Hell even the Ice Bowl came down to the last play once Dallas got over the initial shock of the cold they played the Packers as well as any Dallas fan could ask. <BR/><BR/>Cold weather is only an advantage if you are playing a shitty teamChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12440418769453227208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1413451422114161954.post-89827175371298963662008-12-22T14:02:00.000-06:002008-12-22T14:02:00.000-06:00Eh, his team was pretty good last year but lost in...Eh, his team was pretty good last year but lost in bad weather.

I remember the undefeated streak when temps were below 34, which tells me two things: He lost at least one when it was 35 degrees, and two, the Packers were pretty dang good during that streak. He became a crappier cold-weather quarterback -- by amazing coincidence -- when his team was crappy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1413451422114161954.post-9540269925137768252008-12-22T09:34:00.000-06:002008-12-22T09:34:00.000-06:00Isn't it a crime in Wisconsin to speak ill of Favr...Isn't it a crime in Wisconsin to speak ill of Favre? Good thing you do not live in state. <BR/><BR/>I actually watched some of that Jet game yesterday Favre looked terrible had the same body language that he had in the NFC Championship game. he did not want to be there plain and simple. <BR/><BR/>Imagine if he had actually stayed down on the farm in Mississippi this season. This whole mess could have gone such a different and better way.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12440418769453227208noreply@blogger.com
