Favre in purple
-
Peterson won't take plays off, he's not that type of player. Not to mention Favre already knows his role in the offense before he even gets here. He is looking forward to actually having a running game with him, so he doesn't have to use his tired arm as much. It's actually the PERFECT situation for Favre, and he knows it.

Favre will be the reason Peterson looks like a fucking STUD this year. Here is why:
- Put 8 in the box and try and stop the run, he'll throw right over the top to the pretty good WR core
- Play back on those Wide Receivers and peterson will run on you ALL DAY
- Play falls apart and favre knows enough to make the short passes to continue to move the ball.
It'll be interesting.

Thank you GSR, saved me the time.

I may be wrong...and if I am that is fine. But that is still my analysis of how I think it is a bad move. You all bring up good points on him knowing his role with the team, but I can assure you that Favre still has the gunslinger instinct in him and more importantly (or tragically) an I must win the game attitude. I think IF the Vikings are winning the game he is going to look awesome doing it, but if they are down by 6 with less than 5 mins to go I see him losing the game (or at least some of them) by doing what he does worst....forcing the passes.
Trust me, it's very hard for me to talk shit about a guy like Favre (I keep reminding myself I'm really talking shit about the Vikings) who has brought me many of my most fond memories of the Packers.
IF you can keep him in check and doing exactly what GSR has posted, he can be a great addition...and I sincerely wish the Vikings, Favre (and their fans) the best of luck.
