Did you know Brett Favre is quarterback of the New York Jets now, lol.
You probably haven’t heard it more than 10,000 times on ESPN ... and 20,000 times elsewhere.
That being said, the new Mr. Jet (not to be confused with Joe Namath) brings his team to town for Monday Night Football against the Chargers at Qualcomm Stadium.
So much seems to point in Favre’s favor:
He is 5-0 vs. the Chargers
He beat them in Week 3 last year in Green Bay (this happens to be Week 3)
He’s almost always at his best on Monday Night Football
Well, there is another way to look at this.
The Chargers are 0-2, playing in a nationally televised night game.
The last time that happened was in 2005, when Eli Manning and the New York Giants came to town.
Manning was booed unmercifully for his disparaging comments the year before about San Diego; the Chargers beat the Giants, 45-22.
Although Favre will receive a much warmer reception than Manning, the rest of this game smells a lot like 2005.
Prediction: Chargers 38, Jets 24

Farve will eat the Chargers up. They haven't stopped anybody yet. What makes you think they can stop a GREAT quarterback?
Farve is a good quarterback but the Chargers have a better overall team. This was proven Monday night.
