[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 1003678, member: 7261"] Your damned if you do and damned if you don't. As fans we crave info and because of that, the media is willing to "sell us" that info, whether it is correct or incorrect info. So the people that info is being sought from, Murphy in this case, instead of giving a "I don't know the exact answer to that", tries to sound smart and gives out an answer, that is very vague, but nobody will pick up on that vagueness, all they will hear is "half a season". In the case of Murphy, I would have just preferred hearing the "obvious", at least to me. That would be "We like what we have seen from Jordan and time will tell, just what kind of QB he will turn out to be." Instead, he put a pretend time table on it and then tied it into Rodgers progression, another thing he shouldn't have done.....IMO. Green Bay Packers president/CEO Mark Murphy says [B]it will probably take “at least half a season” for the team to know what it has in new starting quarterback Jordan Love[/B]. Murphy noted the parallels to 2008, when Aaron Rodgers took over after backing up Hall of Famer Brett Favre for three seasons. Murphy said, via Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. “And I think even though we ended up with a losing record that year, but we saw enough of Aaron to know that we had something special.” [/QUOTE]
