Vikings desperation has many faces

By: Turner Sports Desk

Let's start with what we know. Favre is no longer a good quarterback and proved that in NY last season. Brad Childress has been given the win this season or else ultimatum so he decided to go down with his magazines empty. Ladies and gentlemen this is a recipe for desperation which usually results in mistakes.

Enter, or should I say re-re-enter Brett Favre. I guess my next question is who is Favre throwing to in Minnesota because I have no idea who the WRs are (and that is not a good thing). If I'm a defensive coordinator I'm packing the line of scrimmage and making the ancient QB beat me. I'm certainly more afraid of Adrian Peterson than a 40 year old QB fresh off a surgery that was 50/50 in his prime and is more like 40/60 now.

So what have we learned here today? Desperation is not a good mode to make important decisions. Favre is done and now so are the Vikings.

If sounds like you've never been a huge Favre fan. Personally I wrote him off his second to last season with the Packers and then he showed up the following year and proved why he hadn't retired yet. Honestly, he should have retired after that season (even if he did miss the Super Bowl win). But after last years mediocre season he probably wants to prove himself again and who knows, maybe Favre does still have what it takes.

As a chiefs fan living in Minneapolis, I would have to say the people here are already mapping the parade route after the Super Bowl. I, for one am not drinking the Kool-aid, but I would have to say Favre is still a better option than anything else they have. I will reserve my prediction until after the pre-season.

As a Redskin fan I've never really paid much attention to Favre. I only look at the numbers which are impressive until you get to the TD-INT ratio. For all of Brett's gun slinging and his infectious enthusiasm he is no more than a 50-50 Qb that was blessed with extraordinary durability.

I grew up with Joe Gibbs who is still the only coach that used three different QBs to win superbowls so I'm not overly impressed by any QBs in a team sport. The one thing I will say for Favre is the Vikings present the best scenario for him to succeed. Based on what I've seen the Vikes will fall short of the overwhelming expectations. Brett's baggage will hurt the Vikings lockeroom especially if they start slow.

Not only does Favre playing for the Vikings not give them a ticket to the super bowl, but it ruins so many more chances for their future. After this year, none of the backup quarterbacks are going to want to play for an organization that lied to them. So the Vikings will have to make a big time acquisition, which, thanks to Favre, they no longer have the money for. Horrible move all around

Michael Vick must be thankful that there is someone else for the media to focus on this season.
