At 40 years old Brett Favre set career highs in completion percentage, QB rating, and AY/attempt. He threw 33 touchdowns and only 7 interceptions. He threw at least 13 picks in every other season. His 4,202 passing yards were only 211 short of his career high in 1995. Brett really did put everything he had physically and mentally into making one last serious run at a Super Bowl. It’s tragic and fitting how that run came up just short.

The offense became #2 in the league under Favre after finishing 12, 15, 26, and 19 the previous 4 seasons.

Bernard berrian was so underrated this year..he was huge in big games that year

[@bigkev23007]

that man played right after his dad died how could you ever boo him

[@DDL-n2u]

Such a crazy year. Brett's great year, Prime AD, Prime Jared Allen, Prime Percy Harvin, Rodgers looks like he's 9 on his way to becoming one of the best etc

Green Bay got the last laugh the following year but beating Brett twice and winning the Super Bowl.

[@justink9912]

Last laugh for what? Not welcoming the next bart Starr back to the field in a exhibition match that turned volatile? But yet brett played admirably by using just talent and modern intuition. True packer fans recognize a true packer. ESPECIALLY mfin Bret Favre, brother(regretfully). 😁

@@justink9912 He tired to manipulate his way to Minnesota while still under contract and thought he could win a Super Bowl there in order to stick it to Green Bay. Well, he ended up a cripple while Rodgers vindicated Ted Thompson winning Super Bowl 45 while Favre was at home trying to glue himself back together.

@@chriskay1449 is not a true packer. Ended up a cripple lmao. He was just shooting bows with stone cold. Manipulate? Ted Thompson never gave him a choice to come back to green Bay. If it's your last two years, you wouldnt wanna go to a team with Superbowl potential? Lmao youre a riot sir

@@justink9912 Favre tried to use the fans to force Ted to release him by continually badmouthing the organization. What he failed to consider was that 1)The Packers had plenty of cap space to take his contract back on, and 2)Ted absolutely not caring one iota what either Brett or the fans thought. Then he ran his mouth one too many times with his Fox News interview which caused the fans to revolt against him. Oh and by the way son, the Packers were just in the NFC title game when he "retired" so he was already on a Super Bowl contender. In fact, he was the one who personally choked away that game with one of his patented boneheaded INT's. And yes he is a cripple. He has already admitted he has brain damage and is constantly forgetting things while living in pain. The only riot here is you.

[@justink9912]

@@chriskay1449 Son, not all packer fans revolted or disagreed against having him back. If the Packers were already Superbowl contenders then he lead them there at quarterback. Aaron got to the championship 2 years in a row now. F'ing cripple amiright, ole sonny o' pal?
