You make good points. The only thing I will say is that none of us know what Love can be. I don't think you turn away from him because you signed an old man to a contract. But maybe you keep looking. Another draft pick? How would you like that?
I agree,. I'm not saying you automatically move on from Love if Rodgers gets an extension. Even though what they have invested in him shouldn't be a primary factor in keeping him it does have value. He has years of familiarity with the system and I don't think anyone really knows what he can do so I have no problem if they hold onto him. I would have no problem with another QB drafted either. I'd prefer it not be a first rounder though.
You may be right. If drafting Love gave Rodgers an incentive to push his game to an MVP season and another where he is in the running that has to be worth something. Of course, like you said, it is something we will never know.
Personally … I lean more toward coincidence. As you said it was his second year in a new system. I would have expected the whole team including Rodgers to improve under those circumstances.
It was only several years back that the Vikings axed their new kicker after WK # 2 when he missed big time against us including a chip shot in OT that forced a tie. So then they sign Dan Bailey who had tremendous numbers at one time in Dallas and he falls apart the next season. We have been fortunate over the last 30 years to have Chris Jacke, Ryan Longwell, and Crosby. The question is when is it time to go?
Bortles might as well just live in Green Bay. At this point, he might even be the better option in the event that Rodgers gets knocked out during a game. Definitely a better option than Benkert and the way Love looked against the Chiefs, probably my pick to come in due to his vast NFL experience.
Why? We still have 2 QB's active and a available. Both AR & Benkert we're out a month ago leaving GB with only Love.
Players were all test as they returned from their bye-break...shouldn't be rampant throughout position groups or locker room as they've all been away for a week.
I have to wonder if players are more prone to getting covid during a bye week. Being in Green Bay or traveling to an away game is probably more isolating than the type of travel some may do during their time off.
Either could test positive clear up until last tests. It would be ignorant not to
By that thinking GB should run out and sign 2 more DL's, a CB and another RB because the guys on our roster could test positive Thursday after being away from each other for a week. C'mon man!!! 2 QB's is one more than we really need.
When 1 of those is Kurt Benkert. I can see the need to bring in Boyle and suit him up.
Well....now that you jinxed it......we really need Bortles.
Um….I think you need to review the PS.
