Brett Favre decided to return to the Packers and the football world is buzzing in regard to just how Green Bay will perform this season. Will the Pack make one more Super Bowl run with Favre? Will they even make the playoffs? No one seems quite sure if this will be a season of legendary proportions at Lambeau or if it will be a repeat of last year's depression-inducing 4-12 record.

Catering to the rather-sizeable NFL gambling crowd, BetUS.com has already weighed in with predictions on the '06 Packers' season. The site posted odds on everything from where Favre will be playing by season's end to what the Green Bay Packers' win-loss total will look like.

"Brett Favre's decision to play another season of NFL football has given every pro football fan something to cheer about" stated BetUS.com analyst Matt Ross. "But I'm curious to see what the Packer front office has in mind for the gun-slinging legend. While Favre represents their best chance for a special run in the post season, I wonder if the fact that he put his decision off for so long left a bad taste in the mouths of Green Bay executives."

Executives at BetUS.com posted the following odds on Brett Favre's 2006 season:

Will Brett Favre be traded before season begins?
Yes: 11/1
No: 1/25

Will Brett Favre Start all 16 regular season games

No: 5/7

Will the GB Packers make the playoffs this season?
Yes: 7/5
No: 2/1

Will Brett Favre retire before 2006 season is over?

No: 1/7
