Brett is a great QB, but he's definitely no Gretzky. Wayne is close to being above jordan (Jordan is a bigger figure, but Gretzky is way more dominant in statistics).
Favre is done. He isn't really washed up, he just is a high-risk QB who always made crazy throws. Now there is no defense to give him a cushion, no running game to offset the rush, and no receivers to catch his passes.
