Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre has decided to retire.

ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported that according to Favre's agent, Buss Cook, Favre informed Packers coach Mike McCarthy of his decision Monday night.


Foxsports.com first reported Favre's decision.



A sure-fire first-ballot Hall of Famer, Favre, acquired in a trade with the Atlanta Falcons, led the Packers back to the NFL's elite. He retires with 5,377 carrer completions in 8,758 attempts for 61,655 yards, 442 touchdowns and 288 interceptions.



Cook said as of Tuesday morning, there were no plans for Favre to hold a news conference.

Blasphemy!!

peyton Manning os WAYYYY overrated IMHO. The Colts won a Super Bowl IN SPITE of his play and not because of it. And Brady is better than Manning anyways so you even used the wrong guy to try and take the jab!! :>))

LMAO Come on although he's in the top 10 he's not the greatest of all times.

John Elway won more SuperBowls then Favre. Dan Marino was a better QB and didn't wine as much as Favre.

Well anyway it's a new era for Green Bay.

Personally, I think the greatest QB of all time is Montana.

I can accept that as a valid opinion.
