Yeah, as long as Love is competent, we should be able to win with him, as long as the team is good. The problem is he's getting paid like an elite quarterback, so he's sucking up our resources.

I don't know if it was 6 but he made the difference in several games this year.

Love looked much different this year. Last season he was very smart with his throws. Always seemed to find the open guy. This year he made a bunch of bad decisions. Not sure what to make of it. Want to reflect a few days before posting more.
I have to think there is some pressure on Gutenkurst during the off season. This team lost two games each to the Lions, Vikings, and Eagles. And we could barely beat the Bears. Obviously this team needs something. If the Bears get a good coach, we might even find ourselves in the basement. That's not going to make the GM look very good.
Remember though, Love only played well for half the season last year. It was the right half though, the first half he was still finding his sea legs.

Isn't like we had a huge turnover in WR personal. I wanna chalk it up to him having a down year. But if we split the two years into two halfs each he only had one good half of a season.
I will give him one more season to prove himself. If he continues to be bland or worse regresses to bad QB play then we gotta think about drafting a new QB and say Gutes experiment was a failure.
The biggest question heading into this season (to me at least) was about Love. Would he look like the guy from the first half of last season? Or the second half? And the answer I think was somewhere in between. He’s definitely grown since he first started, but I’m not sure quite how good he is. The jury is still out and next season will be very telling.
There are sometimes problems with his decision-making, but I’m also worried about his accuracy. Too often, he misses throws, or makes easy completions difficult, which prevents YAC. The pass that sailed high to Heath was representative of that. Should have been an easy catch, but he threw it high and Heath couldn’t stay in-bounds.
I would just have thought his mechanical issues would be fixed by now.
