Tim Couch to eventually replace Favre?

**triedandtruevikesfan** · 03-30-2004, 04:29 PM

Rumor mill has it that Couch met with Sherman over dinner to discuss the possibilities of him eventually replacing Favre. I couldn't help but laugh at this. If Couch goes to gb, killing them just won't be nearly as fun.

I heard Couch isn't to excited about being Farves backup for the next 2-3 years. I hope Farve doesn't last that long. MAybe a terrible season this year will make him retire.

I had said this in another post, but I was the one saying Couch was going to be a Packer last October, and everyone laughed at me.

If he came, it would be a stretch. Packers are way too close to the cap, and would have to renegotiate his salary in a big way, though the Browns would eat some of the salary in a trade.

Don't get too worked up, all...the Favre era will indeed end within a couple of years, and you know how easy it is to replace a legendary hometown quarterback. Couch will be the stopgap (and scapegoat) for a couple of years until we get the next real deal.

Maybe we'll trade for Culpepper, and you can all have your dream of having Gus Frerotte as your full-time starter.

LMAO... losangelis, for being a cheesehead you kill me sometimes. All the bandwagon Culpepper fans would poop in their pants if he ever went to Green Bay! That of course would never happen, but they would claim that they always loved him and couldn't believe he was going to the rival

Ah, yes...we have the "Start Nall" crybabies in the Packer boards who come out of the woodwork after an interception/sack/loss.

Previous incarnations: "Start Detmer!" "Start Brunell!" "Start Pederson!" "Start Hasselback!" and "Start Brooks!"

One cry we've never heard, though: "Start T.J. Rubley!!"

So I've been wondering lately Los... is every cheesehead in love with the pack because of Favre? or just because they had to pick a team and weren't smart enough to pick the Vikes?

Nah...Favre is a great reason to love 'em, but most of us had our parents and grandparents and great-grandparents pass on the tradition and season tickets. And when those great-grandparents were picking teams, the Vikings didn't exist yet. [8D]
