Last week was the first time this season that the Bucs were better off without Brett Favre.

Joe takes a weekly sort of pointless look at how almost-Bucs quarterback Brett Favre did with the Jets compared to whoever is playing quarterback for the Bucs.

Last week in the Jets 26-14 win over Cincinnati, Brett Favre completed 25 of 33 passes for 189 yards and a touchdown. He was also sacked twice and threw a pair of interceptions.

Jeff Garcia completed 15 of 20 passes for 173 yards and a touchdown. He was not sacked and did not throw a pick.

This was the first week of the season where the Bucs were better off without Favre.
