Farve has enought things to do...

Exactly the point I was leading up to, until my Falcons "buddy" got frustrated and walked away from the conversation.
And I agree with what you said, Scotty, about the whole "team" concept, but I feel like it's the responsibility of the rook. Your starting QB can't be running around making sure that the rookie is doing what he's supposed to be doing. He's got enough burden on his shoulders. I mean, we all know the top position that usually gets all the blame, don't we?

So, when Favre is standing on the sidelines watching his D get run over, he's too busy to give a tip to a rookie? I'm not saying he needs to be coaching, but if he spots something that might help, he should definitely bring it up.

Unless it's the 4th, and someone's getting blown out, he's not thinking about the defense. Maybe you're referring to the preseason, and I'm thinking all season long.

Two different styles. Of the two, I prefer to see the one that Donte is showing.

Yeah, but if Favre didnt take an attitude like that he would probably have to have the 3rd string QB surgically removed from his ass before every game.
