Wit & Attitude Quote by Ron Jaworski

"I love to see Favre playing his best football, and if his mind his right, he'll probably have a fine season"

About this Quote

There is something almost ritualistic about the way Ron Jaworski talks about Brett Favre here: admiration wrapped in a warning label. “I love to see Favre playing his best football” isn’t just praise; it’s nostalgia-as-endorsement, the kind that turns a late-career comeback into an event worth gathering around. Jaworski, an ex-QB turned broadcaster, understands that quarterbacks aren’t evaluated solely on throws. They’re evaluated on narrative.

Then comes the hinge: “and if his mind his right.” The slight verbal stumble reads like a tell, not a typo. It signals how delicately NFL discourse treats the thing everyone suspects but rarely names directly: age, durability, distraction, the psychological grind, the off-field noise. With Favre, “mind” has always been shorthand for the whole package: decision-making under pressure, willingness to take hits, appetite for risk, and the emotional turbulence that can follow a legend who keeps unretiring.

Jaworski’s intent is twofold: keep the story optimistic while protecting himself from the inevitable volatility. He’s forecasting in a way that doubles as liability management. If Favre shines, Jaworski looks prescient. If Favre implodes, the caveat was already baked in.

The context is a league that sells belief but runs on conditional faith. “Probably have a fine season” is the classic football-world hedge: confident enough to fuel the hype cycle, cautious enough to survive the next headline.
