Packers made the right call with Farve

The Green Bay Packers made a very hard decision in moving on without future Hall of Famer quarterback Brett Farve.  Reflecting back trading Farve to the Jets was the right thing to do.

The trade of Farve made way for quarterback Aaron Rodgers to become the starter.  Even with it just being his first full year as a starter the Packers with Rodgers did not miss a beat offensively.

Rodgers went on to throw for 4,038 for the years, with 28 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions, for a 93.8 quarterback rating.  That led the Packers to a ranking of eighth in the league, which would have been higher if the running attack was better. 

That means this years collapse from a 13-3 last year is clearly on the offense, and its abismal ranking of 26th in the league against the run.

There is one thing for sure this year going into the offseason for the Packers they have to find a new defensive end, and defensive tackle if they are going to make it back to the playoffs.
