Quick name some of these great players that Favre was surrounded by. I help you out with the obvious. Donald Driver. There thats it. 13 wins (and a playoff win, right?) that favre took that pathetic packer team and put them over the top. You think Schaub could of taken that team that far? You probably do.

You prove my point by underlining GIVEN. If anyone has a manbone its you for Schaub. We finished 8 & 8 if thats "more than enough for you that explains alot.

This is a clear indicator that you are clueless about QBplay.
I like Shaub but to say he is a better QB than Favre is moronic. Schaub has accomplished nothing and Favre is a shoein for the HOF. In short Schaub doesnt deserve to hold Favres jock strap.


Favre won the Associated Press's MVP Most Valuable Player (MVP) Award three times, all in consecutive years (1995, 1996, and 1997; the last shared with Barry Sanders).
In 1999, he was ranked number 82 on The Sporting News' list of the 100 Greatest Football Players.[70] In 2005, TSN published another special feature honoring the 50 Greatest Quarterbacks. With his career statistics considerably augmented, Favre was ranked number 4, behind Johnny Unitas, Joe Montana and John Elway, and just ahead of previous Packer quarterback legend Bart Starr.
Favre was named the Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year in 2007.[71]
Favre was selected to play in the Pro Bowl nine times in his career.[72]
Favre was a seven-time All-Pro selection.
Favre was named to the NFL 1990s All-Decade Team.
Received the NFC Offensive Player of the Week honor 12 times.
Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle declared November 29, 2004 as Brett Favre Day to honor Favre's 200th consecutive NFL regular season start.[73] That night, the Packers defeated the St. Louis Rams on Monday Night Football.
Men's Health Magazine voted Favre the "Toughest Person in America" in 2003.[74]

Records and milestones
Favre currently possesses most of the well-known NFL career records for quarterbacks, including:

Most AP NFL MVP awards: 3 (1995, 1996, 1997)[79]
Most consecutive starts by a quarterback (NFL): 253[4] (275 including playoffs)
Most wins by a starting quarterback (NFL) regular season career: 160[4] (Regular season record: 160-93)
Most career passing touchdowns: 442[80][81]
Most career passing yards: 61,655[80]
Most career pass completions: 5,377[82][4]
Most career pass attempts: 8,758[4][3][83]
Most career interceptions thrown: 288[80][84]
Most career games with at least three touchdowns: 63[48]
Favre holds the record for consecutive starts by a quarterback with 253. His streak ranks behind only Jim Marshall, who started 270 straight games.[4]

In the playoffs, Favre stands behind only Joe Montana in pass completions, passing touchdowns, passing yards and passing attempts.

In addition, Favre owns a number of team records, having printed his name into almost every passing category in the annals of Green Bay Packers history, most recently setting the team record for consecutive completions with 20 on November 22, 2007, against the Detroit Lions.[85] With 38 "come-from-behind" 4th quarter wins & 2 more overtime victories, Brett Favre is the Green Bay Packers record holder and second only to John Elway's 47 4th quarter or OT "come-back wins", in NFL history.


Consecutive starts streak
Since first being named the starter of the Green Bay Packers before playing the Pittsburgh Steelers on September 27, 1992 Brett Favre never missed a game.[86] He is currently in first place for the most consecutive starts by a quarterback in the NFL and one of only five quarterbacks to have started over 100 consecutive games in NFL history. He failed to finish a game due to injury on only six occasions since taking control of the Packers as quarterback.[87] Besides Favre, there are only two other active streaks of 100 or more games, those of Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Since the beginning of Favre's consecutive start streak, 212 other quarterbacks have started in the NFL,[88][89] 11 of them being back-ups to Favre at one point.[86] Among his former backups are: Don Majkowski, Ty Detmer, Mark Brunell, Steve Bono, Doug Pederson, Matt Hasselbeck, Danny Wuerffel, Aaron Brooks, and J. T. O'Sullivan. Two veteran backups to Favre never started another NFL game: Jim McMahon, and T.J. Rubley. The consecutive starts streak is widely considered one of the most notable streaks in sports, so much so that the Pro Football Hall of Fame has as an exhibit displaying the jersey Favre wore during his record breaking 117th consecutive start as a quarterback, and a section of their website devoted to what the Hall of Fame calls an "Iron Man".[90]

SHAREHOLDERS HOSTILE TO THOMPSON
Posted on July 24th, 2008
As Packers General Manager Ted Thompson awkwardly attempts to keep the fans happy while keeping the franchise’s most popular player away, he had a rough go of it today at the team’s shareholders’ meeting.
Multiple reports indicate that the majority of the thousands of shareholders who showed up today in Green Bay were anti-Thompson and pro-Brett […]

GOODELL TELLS PACKERS TO WRAP UP FAVRE FIASCO
Posted on July 23rd, 2008
ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reports that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has advised Packers G.M. Ted Thompson to truly move on without Brett Favre if the team plans to move on without Brett Favre.
And so it apparently was the call from Goodell that got the Packers to begin making calls in an effort to find a trade […]

FAVRE SHOWS AT LAMBEAU
Posted by Mike Florio on July 19, 2008, 11:10 p.m. EDT
As expected, “retired” quarterback Brett Favre made an appearance at Lambeau Field on Saturday night to introduce former Packers center Frank Winters for induction in the team’s Hall of Fame.
Speaking for roughly three minutes as he introduced Winters, Favre did not address the lingering tug-o-war between him and the team regarding his potential unretirement.
“That’s the thing about Green Bay,” said Favre. ”It’s a special place. There’s a lot of tradition. You think of the Packers, you think of all these great names, and to be a part of that — and I know Frank feels honored — is a special thing. I’m thankful that he asked me to be here.”
Favre also received the team’s annual MVP award on Saturday, and he called himself “an old, gray-haired quarterback showing I can still do it.”
That’s the problem. He still can do it. And still wants to.
