A week ago, former Chiefs linebacker Tamba Hali was talking up quarterback Patrick Mahomes on the NFL Network and made the comparison to Packers legend Brett Favre.
Making that parallel initially raised the eyebrow of NFL Network writer Bucky Brooks. In 32 career NFL games, Brooks played for five teams including the Chiefs and Packers. In Green Bay, one of his teammates was Favre.
Over the weekend, Brooks had an article on NFL.com about the Mahomes-Favre comparison.
"To be fair, I'm a little biased when it comes to Favre, based on my experience playing with him in Green Bay during the remarkable stretch when he won three straight MVP awards," Brooks wrote.
