Favre and other NFL news

At last, the Brett Favre drama has come to a close!!! Favre is a Jet now! He will get to play against Tom Brady twice. The Jets fans will hope that he wins at least one game against the Pats :)

I think, the Trade by the Packers was the only logical thing to do given the circumstances. Favre was playing a spoilsport in their preparations and distracting them immensely. Hopefully, all will be well now.

The Bears have named Kyle Orton as their pre-season games' starter. I cannot predict who will start the regular season. I hope Rex Grossman can perform like he did when he got a chance again late last season. The Bears' receivers have changed and there's no Moos and Berrian to whom Rex can throw. So, we will have to see how he performs with the new guys.

I have been reading Peter King's weekly column MMQB. He's on the training camp trail nowadays and reports his observations of different NFL teams and their preparations.
