Maybe, and just think about this...its his TEAM that is new and improved?
Doesn't that make so much more sense?

Now maybe this is just semantics, but I think if you put Favre in an identical situation this year versus two years ago (open receiver, good protection, 7 point lead in the 4th etc) on ONE GIVEN PLAY, this year he is much more likely to make the play. His head space is better, he's not forcing bad throws under a huge range of situations, etc. I would say this is improvement - possibly due to him have a better mental attitude on a better team, but an improvement nonetheless. If Favre made identical throws under identical situations to those of two years ago, I firmly believe he would not be having the season he is having this year, ie. improvement.
