Call me crazy, but I think what the starting QB actually does have some insight in discussion of the offense his team runs and what fill-in QBs will deal with.

Also, @mjbulls45, you need to look no further than your namesake to rebut your comment. Michael Jordan was transcendent as a Bull. But, everybody gets old.

Given the QB-battering offense he’d have to learn, his 40-year-old body that didn’t hold up behind a line better than the Bears last year, and the fact he hasn’t taken a snap in almost a year, yes, the Bears are better with Caleb Hanie right now than with a sunseting Brett Favre.

I know this, Favre wouldn’t be out for the season, he would have already been playing.

Hey why is everyone saying Brett can’t learn Martz’s playbook? Most opposing defenses know it. Can’t be that difficult!

12-0>7-5. Go Pack Go!!!
=================================

It will not take the Packers best two offense players being out for them to start stinking it up.
Just one.
Just concussion boy getting his bell rung again is all it would take.

You are one hard sack away from the wheels coming off so laugh it up.

I think Martz handcuffs this team from a coaching aspect. All you ever hear is that he runs this insane and difficult gameplan.

Hanie gets the short end the stick when it comes to this. Whether or not he’s been in the system for a while,his lack of playing time on the professional level coupled with Martz’s scheme sets him back when called upon on short notice. I don’t think it’s neccessarily a lack of talent on his part. Martz’s offense needs better wide recievers to succeed and we all know the Bears don’t have the goods in that department. Martz needzs to go.

That said Lovie should have toned down Martz’s gameplan to give Hanie a better chance to succeed.

Favre is a world class d-bag with one of the biggest egos. He absolutely tarnished his legacy with his constant retirement/unretirements, needing a personal escort and private plane, sexting, his irrational treatment of Rodgers, creating a circus atmossphere at training camps etc. However, it seems that most of this Favre talk is simply media-driven since they know that just mentioning this guy’s name will elicit a strong response. Favre hasn’t been quoted, just “statements” (read lawyer), or sources “close to”.

Cutler is wrong. The key to getting Grandpa Brett on your roster is to pony up for all the happy endings the old gunslinger wants.

And the key to making any male Packer fan happy is to line up happy sheep endings for them.

Cutler’s big mistake is trying to get a turtleneck to cover a bulldog’s neck.

If Brett was to throw his hat in the ring, it would be intercepted and returned for a touchdown!

Favre ain’t coming back but he likes to wait several days to tell everyone that so he has more limelight in his life.

New report that Jerry S. tweeted Jay that he won’t be able to scout talent for the Bears at the combine. Thinks that Favre will do it for the right price.

The Right price Jay? A lifetime supply of no fly jeans, unlimited R&R time with Jenn Sterger, new John Deere tractors, gallons of ‘shine and cases of psycho meds.

you people who come on here trashing the bears for not signing any of the washed up has been qb’s out there are clueless. true Hanie has not lookd good but could and should have won both of his starts. they lost the raiders game because of martz’s play calling and the chiefs because everybody including hanie sucked that game. even so they still had a shot but a stupid penalty on barber and williams dropping td pass and game over. is it hanie’s fault the only game he has played in since he has been with the bears was the chanpionship game last year. no playing time plus the fact martz never wanted him,remember he is the one who wanted collins last year as backup does not equal success but does not mean he is as awful as he looks.

The Bears might have been more prudent if they asked Kurt Warner if he’d like to play a few games with the experience to run a Mike Martz offense.

Not sure he’d do it, but if I were the Bears, I’d ask just to be sure.

By: thegreatness34

Ok we can just forget about the Martz offense. Clearly Hanie can’t run it either. So scrap it, put in a favre friendly WCO and let’s score couple TDs so our defense has a chance! Otherwise, season is over!!

“On Tuesday, Brett Favre issued a statement”

Is it fair to assume that standard text messaging rates apply?

By: catchhester23

catchhester23 — Wed, 07 Dec 2011 22:22:07 +0000

All this not enough time to learn the complicated offense so ditch it and run some west coast or anything. Martz offense hasn’t worked for 12 years now. Then if cutler comes back for the playoffs go back to it. Even for hanie obvious he doesn’t get it either. Why hasn’t he used hester what he is good at wr screens. Have Davis, Spaeth, and williams block for him and let hester do the rest.
