Tom, Brett had a 12-4 record, 38 touchdowns against 7 interceptions and an OT loss in the NFC Championship Game against the unstoppable Saints last year. At what, 40 or 41 years old?
Regardless of age, injuries, of whatever, I don't care who you are, with that kind of numbers you simply have to come back the next year. There's the chance to make 300 straight games. And then there's the 26 million dollars the Vikes gave him to carry his ass back out there.
Now if he comes back next year, I agree, he's held on a little too long. The poor old boy is shot. It's gonna take him ten years of doctor appointments just to get out of his chair. But so far as this year goes, I think it's a no-brainer. I don't think he held on too long at all, I'd say you gotta play till you can't play anymore. Anymore is here for Brett.
I don't see him putting on a jersey from here on out. I hope he stays on the sidelines and works with Tavaris Jackson. That kid has heart, but he definately needs some help. Brett can get him headed in the right direction.
