But regardless, Tuesday wasn't the best day the Green Bay Packers have had this offseason. Their old buddy, Brett Favre, is apparently returning to the Vikings for another year. And that means that the Packers, darlings of the offseason prediction circuit, suddenly have a fight on their hands in the NFC North.
Until Tuesday, if you really believed Tarvaris Jackson was going to be the Vikings' starting quarterback in 2010, it was easy to look at the Packers as clear favorites to win the division, maybe even the whole NFC. (Personally, I kind of like the Cowboys, but that's for another day.) But now that it appears Favre will be back under center in Minnesota, the landscape shifts. No longer the obvious choice to win the NFC North, the Packers are now, at best, co-favorites.
