A little surprising given that he had an MVP type year last year and the Packers seem poised to make some noise again this coming year. He is a guy that seems to love the game and his play is indicative of that mentality. I figured he would want to continue given his love for the game and the fact that the Pack can be competitive. He's had a great career but it must be tough going out the way he did in his last game against the Giants. He played pretty poorly in the snowy conditions at Lambeau and his late INT was key in setting up Tynes game winning FG.
Still, a tremendous career and again, a guy who played the game with all the passion and heart he had.
Bring on Aaron Rogers.

It is time for Brett to go. He had a good season last year but tailed off at the end. I think the Packers are a great young team and he must feel a little out of place with all of the youth around him.
He gets to leave relatively healthy and after having a good season. I doubt it would be any better for him next year.
Of course, he could change his mind, or come back in the middle of the year if Aaron Rodgers gets hurt, so I'm not 100% ready to say that he is totally done.
Aaron Rodgers played well when he was in there. He has had a few seasons where he has had the opportunity to sit back and watch and learn. I think he will be pretty good. It's a luxury to be able to sit back and watch and learn as opposed to being thrown in the fire. I think he will be more prepared to play now.
Agree that Favre should go. I am just a little surprised that he chose to leave. I could understand if he sucked last year. He had a pretty disappointing 2006 campaign and another sucky year would have made the decision to retire much easier.
I'm sure Rodgers will be fine - thee is a lot of talent around him.
But we'll see if the guy can stay healthy. Then watch Brett come swooping in and doing his thing.
