Brett Favre: A man of words

August
19

Here are some of things that Jets quarterback Brett Favre said today in his weekly press conference. For example, if the Packers won the NFC championship, “Maybe we’re not here. I have no idea. I’d like to have that opportunity to make that decision. I’ve been asked that question a lot. The answer is, I don’t know.”

Here’s an audio clip of Favre on Laveranues Coles.

And on the offense coming together. As background, Favre had an interception in the two-minute drill, a pick by Darrelle Revis.

“We kind of turned it loose today. We did good on a couple. We didn’t do quite as well on other ones. The good thing is it was practice. We can go back and look at it on film and make the corrections. I don’t think we’re even close yet. I don’t say that in a negative way. I think we’re making strides. For me, it gets worse before it gets better.”

On wanting to play more in the next preseason game.
“With every preseason game I’ve played in, I’d love to play the whole game. If I’m going to come out here and practice, I’d love to play in the whole game. That’s just my mentality. Will that happen? No. We’re going to be smart about it. Whatever Eric (Mangini) wants to do. We haven’t really talked about it. You’d like to go in and play, like the other night, maybe get some more plays and be as successful. But, what if you’re not? Do you keep trying to gain that success and in the process something bad happens? I don’t know. I think it’s kind of a touchy situation, based on how much I’ve played or haven’t played, I would think I would play more.”
