The Brett Favre saga continues and the Vikings have told the future Hall of Famer that they need to know sometime this week what his intentions are.  It’s kind of quite sad when a player who has never taken a snap for your team has the franchise in limbo, waiting to decide what he wants to do.  Make no mistake about it, Favre is a better quarterback than any of the quarterbacks sitting on the Minnesota Vikings roster. Not only that, but just a few weeks ago, he had a good percentage of the players awaiting his arrivial and all over ESPN pretty much welcoming him in with open arms. Even if he doesn’t sign with the Vikings, not all will be lost for the team.

Adrian Peterson has emerged as the best running back in the league in just two seasons and as he continues to gain experience, he’ll continue to improve his game and the better he gets, the better the Vikings get. The defense is set, so that’s not going to be an issue. Minnesota needs a passing game and that’s why the idea of Brett Favre joining the team excites so many players on the roster. But how does it effect Tavaris Jackson if Favre doesn’t join the team? There haven’t been any reports of any offensive players taking his side in this whole ordeal saying they’d want him running the team. He was already yanked out of the starting lineup last season. How much confidence does he have left in himself after hearing his teammates being excited about the idea of him not being the starting quarterback this season?
