As a Chicago Bears fan, it is forbidden to like anyone from the arch rival Green Bay Packers but all that hate made me appreciate the greatness that is Brett Favre and he became of one of my favorite quarterbacks of all-time as well. Brett Favre thoroughly decimated and had his way with the Bears whenever he played him and even if it was a close game, you just knew Favre was going to come threw and pull out the victory while ripping your heart out in the process which usually happened on a regular. Brett Favre is considered one of the greatest quarterbacks of all-time because he has one of the strongest arms ever where he can throw it in tight spots where others can’t. Favre’s passes have jammed and broken many of his wide receivers hands because he throws the ball so hard. Brett Favre has some of the greatest improvisational skills where he has created passes when the conventional pass wasn’t available such the shovel pass, underhand pass, or flip pass all of which Favre has thrown for touchdowns. Brett Favre brought excitement to the quarterback position in that he would run full speed to go celebrate with his teammates in the endzone after a touchdown and sometimes even tackled them. Brett Favre would jump fake like he was passing the ball whenever he handing the ball off to the running back because he was bored. No one ever took Favre’s playful nature as him being soft because he is one of the toughest SOB’s to put on the cleats and had no problem talking shit while getting in the opposing defensive players faces. Brett Favre is considered one of the greatest quarterbacks ever because of what of his competitive greatness of how he rises to the occasion when the game is on the line. Favre is the most feared man in football with the game on the line because no matter the odds he going to find a way to lead his team to victory.
