I think it was ill advised signing a guy who is as good as retired to a single year deal. Now they are stuck holding their dicks again whether he returns or not. Favre at one time was a good QB. That time is not now with the NYJ. I'd rather see Vinny back with the Jets. Seriously.

I can't agree. Look back to the preseason and off season. The Jets spent a bunch of money not just on Farve, but on an updated offensive line. Farve looked super human while that new line was healthy, then they started getting hurt and suddenly he looked a lot like Chad Pennington did last year. Just prives once again that legend or not, no time to make a play is no time to make a play.

The Jets woudl have been just as good with the fresh line and Pennington as they were with Farve, and most likely with fewer interceptions since super Brett has made a career of chucking the ball into coverage.
