Packers Vs Favre...Take 2

If anyone believed that we had seen the last of Mr. Brett Favre after losing to the Saints in the 2010 NFC Championship game must be delusional. May I remind you that Favre played the best of his entire career (statistically) without a true running game. Adrian Peterson wasn't All-Day Adrian Peterson and Brett Favre wasn't that old gunslinger. The real question is can he repeat last years MVP caliber performance. Let's hope not, because you got to believe that Peterson will return with a chip on his shoulder feeling he has something to prove especially after being criticized for his tendency to fumble.

On the other hand, the Packers must improve in the trenches. Last year the Green Bay offensive line allowed the most sacks (51) in the NFL, just ask the Minnesota Vikings own Jared Allen. Against Minnesota, the Packers couldn't get any pressure on Favre while Aaron Rodgers was out there running for his life. If the Packers motto this is going to be "Superbowl or Die" they must get the huge monkey off their back, which is beating the Brett Favre-led Vikings.

The Saints gave the entire NFL the blue print in beating the Vikings during the NFC Championship game, you must rattle Favre. Hit him, sack him, force turnovers, and at times even take a few penalties. The Packers have the ability to do all those things, but need to put them all together on that certain night. Nick Barnett may be saying "Superbowl or Die" however it may need to be beat Brett Favre or die because I don't think Packer fans would be able to take 2 more losses to Brett Favre in Vikings purple. It's time for Aaron Rodgers to step up and take this team to the next level, and prove to America that he was the right choice over Brett. The first step is beating the Vikings.
