At halftime of yesterday’s game against the Giants, there was reason to worry. The Packers were down by 3 and hadn’t shown much spark on the offensive side of the ball.
Then the second half started. And Brett Favre completed his first 14 passes. By the end of the game it was clear that adjustments were made at halftime that worked like a charm. And when all was said and done, Brett Favre became the winningest QB in NFL history. Add that to the numerous other accomplishments in his career, and the only thing keeping Brett out of Canton is the waiting period.
Are the Packers as good as the 2-0 record? I think if the defense keeps playing the way they have in the first two games, they are. If Favre keeps having fun and showing the young guys how to win, the PAckers could be in the playoffs for the first time in 3 years.
I’m not normally one to comment on Brett Favre one way or another, but it occurs to me that I have watched the entire career of one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game.
Congrats on the record Brett…there are two more within your reach this season, and then a slow ride into the sunset is exactly what “the gunslinger” deserves.

I wouldn’t hold my breath yet for the playoffs…but even I have to admit Brett did pretty good yesterday. Think he will finally retire this year since he will have beat the records?
