Brett Favre the FireFox 3.0 of football
I wanted to post a follow up to August’s post title “Brett Favre the IE6 of football.” Well how wrong were we?!
To date, Favre has passed for 1925 yards, 68% completion, 16 touchdowns to a scarce 3 interceptions and has posted a quarterback rating of 106.0. His average fantasy pick was 110! Talk about a steal…
Of course, much of his success can easily be attributed to Adrian Peterson. Favre himself has stated that he’s never played with a guy like Adrian (and few have, really). So this turn in events has caused us to rethink some things and restate our initial post.
It seems that Favre is hitting on all cylinders. Like Firefox, he’s add-on friendly (plays well in a variety of teams), is not the most popular of NFL quarterbacks (the Manning brothers or Tom Brady probably take that crown while the dastardly IE still has an overwhelming amount of browser marketshare), and he never crashes (his streak of starts is amazing… and this may be the one place he does differ from Firefox).
And thus, we apologize to Brett (we know you read this blog).
