It was always his plan to go to the Vikings. I was waiting for training camp to finish before he joined. In fact, I made a $50 bet that he would join with two weeks of camp ending. The Vikings broke camp early, and you ould speculate that they did so hoping Favre would come in earlier but Brett isn't there to be a team player anymore, he's just there to play.
I think it bodes well for the other teams in the black and blue. Childress is an idiot; he'll spend too much of his time trying to insert favre that it'll be a wash. They have a run first offense but Favre won't stand for that. I'd say that part of his agreement is a change in their offensive philosophy. Bad idea. But Childress and Wolfe are going to do what they are going to do.
The Pack and Detroit (barring injuries) will be the stars (relatively) of that division this year. The Bears defense is up in smoke (age/injuries) and their offense just realized what they got in Jay Cutler the moment he publicly blamed an under thrown ball on the receiver. Favre is only good to the Vikings as a solid, reliable quarterback; they don't need gaudy numbers. But that's Favre's game. I don't see how this will work out well for them.
I say the division goes:
Green Bay 11-5
Minnesota 9-7
Chicago 9-7
Detriot 7-9
