Will Brett Favre walk away from NFL Football?

Brett Favre ended his 2006 NFL Football season with an incredible win over the NFL no.1 team, Chicago Bears.

And just like last year, Brett Favre ended the season with doubts on his mind whether he'll be calling it quits or not. Last time we did this, Brett Favre decided to return. Will it happen all over again this time?

Well, for what it's worth, it's possible Brett Favre played the final game of his illustrious NFL career Sunday night at Soldier Field.

Just don't bet on it.

Favre's tearful interview on national television following the Packers' 26-7 victory over the Chicago Bears gave a hint the veteran quarterback is strongly considering retirement. But Favre wouldn't give a definitive answer, and said he probably would decide on his future in the next two weeks.

Brett Favre, whether he decides to call it quits or not, is a lock to enter the NFL Football Hall of Fame. He has nothing more to prove and everybody knows he doesn't need another multi-million dollar salary.

After all, Green Bay Packers jerseys with the no.4 etched on it are selling like pancakes. Then again, he just as easily could return, with no regrets. In fact, why wouldn't Favre want to come back?

Forget about the money and the NFL passing records he could break. Those are nice fringe benefits, but deep down, the only reason Favre would play again is his passion for the game.

Brett Favre is healthy, having extended his starting streak to a superhuman 257 games (including playoffs). The prospect of undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his sore left ankle (bone spurs) today should have no bearing on his football future.

Neither should his playing ability. Despite being 37, which is ancient by pro football standards, Favre has what it takes to lead an NFL team.

And yeah, wouldn't it be nice to walk away from the game ala John Elway? Wouldn't it be nice if Brett Favre walked away from NFL Football with a brand new Super Bowl ring? Yep, it will.
