Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

I know we've kind of already been talking about Brett Farve stinking up the preseason but I thought I would post this here poll to see what you guys would do if you were GM/HC of the Packers. It's a pretty tough decision considering he's been the face of the francise for so long but I think you might just be wasting a year with this guy. Sooooo...
Deal him, Cut him or Bench him.

Try to deal him to another team for some draft picks
I voted bench him, but now that I think about it he is just hogging up cap space and they're not going to get anything good in a trade.

I say just bench him, let whosit get some playing time.
After this year, Farve will retire.
Kinda saddening though, I was in line to get food last night and the game was on. I told my friend, after seeing Farve get pummeled and forcing throws, that Farve should retire after this season. Then this girl in front of me said "You can't say that about Farve!" and showed her Wisconsin sweater to us.
Its blind love at this point. Kinda like a old dog, you just have to know when to put it down.
You can't really trade him to another team since he would most likely then retire and the stadium would be ripped apart if he isn't retired as a Packer.
The best situation would be for him to just retire now. He needs to realize that he no longer has it. Then, it would be his decision, and possibly the Packers could pick up some QB help from other team's cuts.
Thanks to Bronco4Life and Medford Bronco for signature
I would go with the fourth choice (which you conveniently didn't include in the poll). I would:
Play him - he is the heart and soul of the team. Sure he's past his prime - but he is the person the fans love and is the face of the franchise. You cut or bench him and you will tick off a heck of a lot of fans (example: What Belichick did to Kosar).
I haven't seen much of one, that's for sure. If the pass protection is terrible, I'm not sure Rodgers will do much better. And that being the case, might as well let Favre play if that's what he wants... at least for this season.

The blew it in the offseason, they should have told him to retire. I don't think he would have left for a new team at this stage. They let him have to much leeway

I agree. Remeber when T.D. retired after the 2002 preseason when realizing his time had come to an end? I think this would be the best time for Farve to have that revalation. Im not even trying to be disrespectful to Farve, it is just what I think is best for that organization and Brett.
New HC, New Oline, and now time for a new starting QB (Rodgers).
