Default Re: Favre to Stay Retired

QB's can often make or break a team. QB is the most important position on the team. Any one who says differently doesn't watch much football. Are there exceptions? Of course. As much as a QB can make or break a team if the QB has no team he can't always excel. Such is the case with Dan Marino. Marino broke all the records and very rarely had a contender team. I hate the Dolphins but as a football fan I have to admit that Marino was one of the best. Had Marino played on a team that could support his skill he would have a ring.

Favre played on a team that made him look better than he was. Much like Emmitt Smith looked better on the Cowboys then he would have elsewhere.

I equate Favre to Emmitt Smith, a player that looked better than he was because of his team, and Marino to Barry Sanders a player that shined and was one of the best despite his lack of team support.
