Brett Favre Will Not Have Surgery

NFL News And RumorsMay 18, 2009

Free agent QB legend Brett Favre was scheduled to meet with Dr. James Andrews on Tuesday to discuss a surgery to repair a torn biceps tendon in his throwing arm.

He has decided to wait on the decision, and see if he can heal the tear naturally, depending on the parameters of the surgery, may or may not have one in the future

If he decides to and the surgery goes well, Favre will un-retire a second time and will suit up in the purple and gold for the Minnesota Vikings next season.

The recovery time for the surgery would be 6-8 weeks; more than enough time to be ready for regular season action.

Pinch me if I’m dreaming, oh wait, this has already happened once, hasn’t it?

Let's hope he might un-retire for the right reasons. It is no secret he, wants to exact revenge on the Green Bay Packers for how they treated him the first “un-retiring” go around last year.

Revenge only goes so far, and if that’s where all his drive and motivation comes from (and the $10 million paycheck…) then he will do more harm than good by coming out of retirement.

He has to want to play 110 percent in the other 14 games on the schedule. He has to want another title, he has to want to make the players around him better.

The Vikings are widely considered to be “one QB away" from Super Bowl contention.

If Favre decides to play, they may well have that final piece of the puzzle

Combining Favre with star RB Adrian Peterson, could be a tandem to remember, even if it is for one season. Deep threat WR Bernard Berrian will be the primary beneficiary of Favre's gunslinger mentality.

The window appears to be open, Minnesota; take advantage of this down time for further persuading opportunities before Favre has another change of heart.

Well if that happens, just wait until next off-season, third time's a charm, right?
