Oh Great

I thought we had dodged the Favre bullet, but I should have known better. We should have realized when we never got a fourth QB to split reps when TJack and Sage got nicked up. It was obvious Chilly had given Favre anything he wanted in this (no Mankato, $12 million, no OTAs, etc.) I hope I am wrong, but I think we are better off without him and had a better chance to win without him. I don't think the thing with his arm is completely rehabbed. By the way Favre has done this thing, he has put himself way above his new team. I just don't think Favre can trust his teammates and the game plan without going his own way. We need someone who can take care of the ball, something Favre never has been very well at. Many people have heard me say he is the only QB I know who would take an interception to avoid a sack. I hope I'm wrong.
Who should we cut? That's a choice I wouldn't want to make. Sage has been (and probably still is) our best QB. Booty may or may not be something, but if we float him to get him on the practice squad someone would surely claim him. Most assumed it would be Tjack because you'd have Sage and his contract is up after this year. The reason I think the Vikings might need him sometime this reason is he is at least he can escape trouble. The biggest weakness on our team is our O-line and I think Tjack's mobility might be our only answer to that. I hope I'm wrong.
