I'd say we're seeing the same Favre we've seen his entire career. Look at his QB ratings since he went to Green Bay:1992-93: 85.3

Favre has hot streaks and cold streaks. That's just the player he is. He managed to put up three 90+ seasons in a row while he was in his prime, but expecting him to come anywhere near his career best performance from last year is unfair. I'm sure that he'll end up with a much higher rating than 56.1, but putting all of your hopes on him having a solid year is nothing more than a crap shot.
Oh, in before "you're just saying that because you're a Bears fan".

Which should be my team this season? I need a good team, to make fun of others.

You're just jealous because your cold-ass isn't getting any attention.

Also, watch out in the Clan forums, because I heard jp doesn't like your type.
