What's so great about Brett Favre? He played like a million years - and only has a single ring to show for it ... and that one ring came thanks in part to the 1996 Packers #1 rated defense in the entire NFL.

Without Sterling Sharp to throw to - and without that Reggie White led #1 defense in the entire NFL - where are his rings?

I'll tell you who was a real loser though - that Barry Sanders guy.

Nevermind that Sanders went to 10 Pro Bowls - I don't think the Lions ever won a single playoff game the entire time he was in Detroit.

A running back that was actually a winner - like the great Reggie Bush for instance - would have surely won a Super Bowl in Detroit.

I remember when Sanders somehow took the Lions to the playoffs in '95 - they give up 58 points to the Rodney Peete led Eagles in the wild card game. Scott Mitchell threw 4 INT's in the first half - and they pulled him and his backup came in and threw 2 more.

Once that loser finally retired and left Detroit - the Lions have been a near dynasty ever since.

Barry Sanders won a playoff game in 1991. Count it.

Wow. Didn't remember that. So, in his entire career - he won only a single playoff game.

He played on some truly miserable teams after that. There were years when he was probably the single best player in the entire league - and his team was 5-11 or 6-10.

The Lions made the playoffs something like five times in the 90's. Those were legitimately the glory years of the franchise in the post-merger era. Nothing even close to a winning record since 2001 when Paul Edinger hit a 55-ish yard field goal to beat the Lions - and knock them out of the playoffs - with like 20 seconds left in the last week of the season. BIll Ford Sr. hired Matt Millen like a week later and the rest, as they say, is history.

Seriously? They would be better off signing me and giving me a chance to make the team.

Walker, however, clashed with Favre before he left the Packers in a trade after the 2005 season. Favre torched Walker for skipping the Green Bay Packers' 2005 minicamp. Walker was seeking a new contract at the time.
