The Facts: Howard Eskin of WIP radio in Philly reports that the Eagles could be interested in Favre as a backup to Mike Vick, after Kevin Kolb is shipped out of town. Sources told Eskin, who serves as a sideline reporter for the team’s radio broadcasts, that it’s “possible” the Eagles will sign Favre.

Diehards Line:Good grief. While we understand the move would move would reunite Favre with Andy Reid, who was an assistant with the Packers before becoming a HC in 1999, we're reluctant to take the report too seriously. Or perhaps saying "we're loathe" to take it too seriously would be more accurate. It's safe to say that most people who cover the NFL have had their fill of his vacillation and the drama that's part and parcel of his possible return. So, we're reporting this due to the fact we have to; it won't be long until Eskin's suggestion blows up and hits the major media. Just want you to know we're on top of it -- even if we don't believe it. Or don't want to believe it.
