This is why I don't want him to retire. His INT's never get old for me

I want him to put up 5 INTS vs the Pats. Then I will have some satisfaction for all the Pain he has cause the Pats over the years. LOL. Time to STOMP him out while he's down!

BS statistic

Favre has a lot of turnovers but just because he turned the ball over doesn't mean the other team is guaranteed points. The way you worded it should only apply to pick sixes, fumbles recovered for TDs or safeties

Where do you come up with the 51 points? Not doubting you, it's just that if you're going to quote something you really need to provide a link. Part of that is due to copyright laws, but also it really helps the rest of us so we can read the rest of the article.

I am simply devastated at the prospect of not seeing Lord Favre this weekend.

Is there a fantasy league where you get points for bad plays ... Favre would be the perennial #1 pick in that league.

First thing that jumped out at me looking at those stats is not that Favre is leading the league in interceptions, but the fact that he is doing that with so many fewer throws than the other QBs with a lot of picks. Favre's throwing one INT for about every 18 pass attempts; it looks like the only ratio that is worse is Carolina's Matt Moore, at about one in every 14 attempts. By comparison Brees has the same number of picks as Favre (10), but he's only throwing one in every 29 attempts, even after Sunday's disaster. Even Derek Anderson is better than Favre, one in every 26 throws. On the other end of the spectrum you have Kyle Orton (1:69), Josh Freeman (1:67), Matt Cassel (1:51), Brady (1:50) and Rivers (1:45).

the shocking but true part is that sanchize seems to have cut down the ints this year ....

the shocking but true part is that sanchize seems to have cut down the ints this year ....

Let's see how he performs with the wind picking up and the temperatures dropping over the next couple of months. Although he has succeeded in protecting the ball thus far much better than he did last year, he's not exactly lighting it up either: he ranks just 22nd in passing yards, 29th in completion percentage, and 29th in yards per attempt.
