Favre says goodbye to NFL
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre has called it quits after a 17-year career in the NFL - a career that will almost assuredly land him into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. (See story).
Favre has flirted with retirement before, but this time it’s serious. And now that one of the best quarterbacks in NFL history appears to be walking away, there’s the burning question for most Falcons fans - what if he had played his entire career in Atlanta?
The 1991 second-round pick out of Southern Miss was traded north after only one season with the Falcons and later blossomed into a three-time NFL MVP, Super Bowl champion and the owner of several league records, including career TD passes.
What might’ve happened to the Falcons if Favre remained in Atlanta? And what are your thoughts on the career of the player likely headed to the Hall of Fame?
Check out the reaction of Favre’s news in Milwaukee and let us know what you think.
