Favre isnt holding the Packers hostage at all. In fact, the Packers told him to take his time in deciding what to do because him coming back, or not didnt change their off season moves or draft day decisions at all. Now if The Packers said "If Favre says were going 'this direction', and if he leaves were going 'this direction.'" and Farve took his sweet time, then yes I'd agree with you, but it wasnt like that.
If Favre goes out there this year and chucks up 30 picks, hes gone, its that simple. I personaly dont think 50% of the picks last year were his fault, but that still leaves 15 that were, which isnt great, but thats Farve throughout his career. Look at his career as a whole and you will see that Favre has ALWAYS thrown alot of picks and during the SB years he threw 13 and 16.
The fact is, Favre can still get it done as long as he has some help around him. Losing every weapon he had last season didnt help and you saw it on the field and in his stats. That being said, hes still the best QB in the NFC North by far (which is SAD) and should a 49er fan REALLY be saying anythign about another team's QB? Hell even the Rats with Bller have a better QB than Alex Smith and his 1 td and 11 ints.
