Driver disses old pal Favre? Really?


In a recent interview, Green Bay Packer WR Donald Driver extolled the virtues of working with QB Aaron Rodgers - while slighting former GB QB Brett Favre.
I've played with two quarterbacks. One just went out there and did what he did, and he wasn't patient at all. But Aaron takes what the defense gives him, and that's the type of guy you want. - Donald Driver.
Driver is correct in stating that Favre wasn't as patient at Rodgers, let's say. You know, the gunslinger type. But why is a reporter pimping Driver by asking him this question now? Favre's long gone as a Packer. Talk about beating a dead horse. And Packer fans want me to "let it go"? Wonder why no journalists asked Driver this question when the Packers went 6-10 the season immediately after Favre's departure from Green Bay?

Funny...Driver never complained about Favre's style those 9 years when Brett was tossing DD the ball, mounting up all those TD's and catches, was he? Check here for Driver's stats. All 3 years Driver was selected to the Pro Bowl while playing with Favre, he never complained once about Favre's style back then. No siree.

Hmmmm...must be that Super Bowl ring. Sure it is...
