But, at the end of the day any NFL General Manager and Coach need to put the best team on the field that can win.
Farve lead them to the NFC championship last year.
When he said maybe he did not want to retire they both should have been on the phone begging him to come play.
No one can say that the Packers have a better chance at winning with Rogers there over Farve right now.

To be fair, I'm sure they made adjustments to the offense already to make Rodgers more comfortable. Maybe it's not that easy to adjust the whole team back to play in a Favre-ish offense. However, I do think it would be worth it. I'd love to see Favre play another year with the Packers.
Favre belongs in the top 10 list not because he is the most accurate player or even the most talented, but because he is a true football player. No quitting (look at how many games he started in a row), there is always fight in him, he is never afraid to make a decision on the fly (underhanded passes, fighting off tackles no matter what, etc.) and he continuously pushed himself to be better.
Last season was one of his best years when people had written him off 5 years ago. He may not be the "best" when it comes to pure stats, but he is definitely the most exciting QB to watch play I'd say. It's never a boring game when Favre is playing, because you never know when he'll manage to squeeze in that insane pass for an 80 yard touchdown out of nowhere to put a game away in overtime.
These things can't be overlooked when you judge a quarterback and these things are what easily ranks Brett Favre in the top 10 QBs of all time. If you can name 10 that you'd rather watch play, you're fucking crazy.
