gauging the favre interest level 

Post#1 » by jerrod » Mon Jul 28, 2008 6:35 pm

as a ravens fan/ wi resident, i always hear the ravens mentioned as a team that may potentially consider one day having some interest in favre. i've read just as many pieces that say that the ravens are not interested.

so what are the thoughts on here?

I'd love to get him. The Ravens are stuck between being a playoff team and going into rebuilding mode. Getting Favre would at least choose our path. This team has been dieing for a star quarterback for the longest time, so Brett would be welcomed here with open arms.

But there's no chance he comes here, IMO. We aren't the 'sexy' pick. We don't have the brightest future. We aren't the best team of his possible options. Etc.

In addition, per the Baltimore Sun, we have no interest in him and he has no interest in us.

And hinder Flacco/Smith/Boller's development? Never.

**** sad if you ask me. The fortunes of the Ravens are in the hands of Kyle Boller once again.
First the federal government borrowed money; then gave the money to Bank of America; then I borrowed some of that money from Bank of America and gave it to the federal government; then the federal government gave the money back to Bank of America.

that's pretty much my thought on it as well. tampa bay is always thrown around and it's hard for me to imagine them as a sexier pick than the ravens but maybe they are.

i wish they'd offer me 20 million to not show up at packer games :D

Return to Baltimore Ravens
