I feel that Favre would fit well in a couple of organizations, but I feel that the best fit for Favre would be in the same division that he has played the last 15 years or so in.
Minnesota Vikings
This would be perfect for a couple of reasons -
a) This would give Favre a chance to win a Super Bowl, which is probably the only reason he would wanna come back. The Vikings are a team that are only a consistent quarterback away from a Super Bowl, and this would be the perfect place for Brett to make a run for that second Super Bowl.
b) This also makes sense for the Vikings, as it would give Brett a chance to guide and help develop Tavaris Jackson, a quarterback with loads of potential, into a quarterback that can guide them into being a serious contender for when Brett really hung up the cleats for good.
c) Although this gets overlooked, Brett's family lives in Green Bay. This move to Minnesota is about the closest NFL team to Green Bay, and I don't feel Brett would want to move far from his home as this is probably just going to be a one, maybe two year thing if he does comeback to the NFL
GOOD LUCK!

I will hae to say a team that is close to his real home in MISSISSIPPI!
The Atlanta Falcons:
1) Why would he want to ply against the Packers twice a year and for a team who has been his rival for so long.
2) This will help Matt Ryan in the long run learning from a great like Farve. Also, who do the Falcons have...Harrington??....Redman?? come on, with Jackson the Vikings at least went 8-8, what did the Falcons do??? Finish in LAST!.
3) I know there aren't great recievers in Atlanta, but there aren't any in Minnesota either.
These are just some of the many reasons why Farve shouldn't go to MIN and go to ATL
Good Luck to you Jord!

The Falcons? Thats one of the worst teams I see him going too. There's only one reason for him to come back and that is to add another ring so that both hands can have one. Coming back to help a new quarterback is a perk for him, but thats defiantly not why he'd come back, it would be more to win a ring.
Also, you mention the fact that the Falcons and the Vikings both dont have a receiver. But I'll tell you six things that the Vikings do have. Two offensive guards, Two offensive tackles, a centre and ADRIAN PETERSON! Also, a better offensive and team all together.
This whole division rival thing just doesn't make sense to me at all, as if the Packers don't want him to go to a division rival, especially one that has a shot at winning the division, then they should show some enthusiasm in wanting him back. If they fans are real "diehards", they would understand that it wasen't his idea to move, but the team felt that it was a better that they hand the reigns over to Aaron Rodgers. It's their call, not Brett's, so again dont hate the player, hate the game (again, or the team)

I know he wants to win a ring and he might if he can teach the Falcons players, especially the QB's. How do you know if AP is going to do good??? He could do bad. I hope he doesn't do this, but it is just a suggestion...he could get injured and be out for the season. Then all the pressure would be on the QB and the backup RB.
Why doesn't the division rival make sense he wouldn't want to play against his team that all the fans respect him in, the fans are going to boo him:
First for retiring and then coming back
Second coming back and not to the Packers
Third Going to the division rival Vikings!
This is why I think he should go to the Falcons for fun, he will still play hard, but he won't be under a lot of pressure. This is a reason why he should and shouldn't go to the Vikings

Your whole first paragraph makes little to no sense. I think we all agree that the Falcons winning the super bowl is pretty much out of the question this year. Also, how do I know anyones gonna do good? We dont. We can only go by the past and what they've done and in only one season Adrian Peterson has shown signs of greatness. Also, what if Turner gets injured for the whole season, huh?
Your first, second, third doesn't make much sense. You said second not comin back to the Packers, where he would clearly go if they would take him, but it doesn't look like they would. So, therefore, he has a choice to go wherever he feels can get him a Super Bowl, and where he can start and be competitive, which is the Minnesota Vikings.
One more thing that I couldn't fit into my last argument. Favre has a very strained relationship with the Falcons. He was drafted by them, and was very irresponsible and reportedly went to team meeting drunk or hungover. Jerry Glanville, the coach at the time, said that it would take a plane crash for him to put Favre in the game, as he really disapproved the drafting of Brett. This can't make Favre feel all that well if you ask me.
YanksFan said 07/08, 04:11 PM
What I meant in my first paragraph was that what is Adrian Peterson got hurt??? What are they going to do. They will have a lot of pressure on the backup RB, Turner and their QB.
When he was drafted he has a problem. He is a changed man now and would be different. It is now a new coach too with new management and if Farve was a man he would just put the past behind and look toward the future into being a teavher to younger players to be more loke him.
That is all I have to say!
