Sure, he's overexposed, a drama queen, and can be a turnover machine at times, but that doesn't make him overrated. There's something to be said about a guy who goes out, plays 16 games a year no matter what, and puts up at least 25 TDs and close to 4,000 yards every year in the cold.
To me, he's better than Manning. Favre holds all the records and didn't put up the stats in a heated gymnasium. When he beat us in the Super Bowl, I remember him throwing a couple bombs for TDs, one to Andre Rison I think and the other to Antonio Freeman if I remember correctly. Manning threw 3 TD and 7INT in his SB playoff run. In other words, he had nothing to do with his team winning the Super Bowl.
I compare Favre to the Simpsons...they both did their best work in the 90s, but the difference between Favre and the Simpsons is, Favre can still play. He isn't 1998 Favre, but he still has a cannon arm, is fun to watch. He reminds me of Brady in a way: These guys just love to play the game. They look like kids playing a pick-up game when they throw a TD or get a first-down. Guys like Manning in the clutch look like they're tossing Shaquille O Neal's salad.
In my opinion, Favre is a top 5 QB...my top 5 of all-time would be Montana, Brady, Elway, Favre, and Marino...Favre getting the nod over Marino because of the SB win and eclipsing his stats.
