On behalf of the Bears, we would love you have you play for us, Mr. Pennington. (It can't get much worse, can it?)
Pennington is on the same skill level of a Grossman or Orton. Either way, your team is not going to be a winner based on QB play.
Why does everyone blame Favre for all this? I understand him wanting to unretire and I understand the principle of the team already moving forward with Aaron Rodgers and not going back. It's the Packers who dropped the ball on this one because they wouldn't release or trade him sooner. I think the Pack were right in not letting him go to a division team though. They just screwed up by releasing false info about the situation (i.e. team issued cell phone call to the Vikes).
It's not like the Packers are saying Rodgers is better than Favre...they are just saying they already moved on and I can respect that. I think Brett understood that point even though he didn't like it. I believe he was okay not playing for GB anymore.
Catch 22 anyway you look at it.
