Favre, who is one of the best QB’s of all time, recently revealed his thoughts during an interview and gave the honor to Rams QB Austin Davis. Hit the jump for details.
Via Complex Sports:
While watching this past Sunday’s game between the St. Louis Rams and Seattle Seahawks, Brett Favre said he saw a little bit of the two aforementioned, accomplished quarterbacks in Austin Davis.
“Austin can definitely play at this level,” Brett Favre, the only Southern Miss quarterback other than Davis to start more than one NFL game, told ESPN’s Ed Werder.
“Not to sound off my rocker, but [Davis] — in my mind — can be the next Tom Brady or Kurt Warner. [Brian] Hoyer as well.
“Austin, like those mentioned, just needed a legit opportunity.”
Now, before you go questioning Favre’s talent evaluation skills, it’s worth pointing out that Davis did set a record for best completion percentage (86 percent) against a Super Bowl defending team after going 18 for 21 versus the vaunted Seahawks defense. In six games this season, Davis has thrown for 1,517 yards with nine touchdowns and four interceptions.
