I'm willing to concede that 10 is improving his command is better. What I am not willing to concede is the inconsistency. When he hit Doubs in stride I got out of my chair it is true. When he threw into triple coverage I grimaced.

This has to be the worst year ever for evaluating a QB in GB. With so many questions on the offensive line, and the 3-ring circus at WR, it's hard to make any judgements.

Why do we keep beating a dead horse. Rodgers is the qb this year. Packers are trying to develop Love. It is what it is and when the time comes the packers will make a decision on who the qb will be by how good said player plays. Just like every position

It's a discussion board. That's kind of what you're supposed to do--discuss things.

Kind of an odd remark for a moderator to make.

The point is, don't get overly passionate about what you think, because in the end, it's not us who will be making the decisions, and rest assured, the Packers brain trust could care less what we think about their choices. But, it doesn't mean we can't discuss it, and call them idiots when they disagree with us, does it? ;)

Love is not going to be our third straight Hall of Famer. He has some things to clean up which is expected from a guy with so little experience in game action against real competition. However I have seen enough to believe he can be a very good quarterback, more than good enough to win with.

Because the packers gave up a Super Bowl for Love; sorry, but if the packers had Higgins or Pittman at receiver, they beat the 49ers last season and win the Super Bowl. I think love will be a good nfl QB but you gotta remember what he’ his cost to the team has been. He’s going to be a $20 million backup next season too.

If BakhT and Jenkins don’t get hurt we beat them too. If Dillon didn’t go down in game we likely won, if we don’t have some of the worst special teams play in the history of the nfl we win.

Here is JT O'Sullivan's take on Jordan Love's game 2 (preseason) performance vs. the Saints. Kind of a mixed bag. Quick summary: some impressive throws but accuracy lacks consistency. Footwork needs further cleaning up. That said, there has been improvement for Love.

I really enjoy QB School. I encourage everyone to check it out.

It’s probably leaning critical there. However I still enjoy seeing it from another perspective.
We’ve got to remember that if every QB got evaluated for perfect plays, it would be a very short Preseason film. Honestly you could (and people do) pick on Rodgers all the time and this guy wouldn’t touch his film out of the peer pressure. Easy to pick on the new guy though.

yeah I agree, I mean that’s a hard leap of faith there saying Tee Higgins wins a SB.
I had ST costing us at least 7 points. (I’ll give SF a FG on the punt block had it gotten off because they start at midfield area)
That weather was so suspect that both Offenses struggled mightily.

Had we had a top 10 ST unit we Win that game imo.

No one can tell. Again Rodgers looked abysmal for first few seasons of preseason games….roller coaster up and down like Love.

Recency bias tells us he is terrible because Rodgers is amazing and Love not so much….it was quite a few years into the Rodgers/Favre saga folks truly thought Aaron could be great….no one naively thought he was a HOF level so of course no one thinks Love is that.

No receiver other than Adams has more than two targets in a game where the packers offense wasn’t doing well. Sure, a very good receiver wouldn’t have helped overcome the aforementioned injuries, i mean, the packers had Lazard helping out instead!

Lock the thread if that's how you feel. You can reopen it if he ever plays again for the Packers.

This was a 24 yard throw by Love and as close as you can get to a TD. The tip of the ball need only touch the front plane. This is the film they conveniently decided to show. Notice the camera is nowhere close to the Line though, which creates an illusion. If he’s short he’s like 2”-3”short and I still think it’s just a really poor camera angle.

I anoint You guys “camera review referees”
How many inches short is he??

This is where Review team spotted the ball 36” off the line to goal

The camera angles make a big difference. I don't think we see all of them, but the replay people do.

Sure. I think he might be short by an a couple inches. Maybe and I’m giving them some leeway there. But that’s as close as it gets without giving Jordan Love a passing TD. Yet spotting it backwards nearly 3 feet was uncalled for also. You get away with that stuff at the 33 yard line but that should’ve never happened eith modern technology.

This is really representative of Jordan’s football personality as a whole. He’s been inches from turning the tide onto another plateau.

Recall how horrible his throwing motion was? Everyone said he is a student from Tedford? High ball holding.

Everyone forgets how much rodgers was hated

I was on a different forum back then, but as I recall the consensus during Rodgers' first starting season was that he would likely be a 25T/15I game manager. But he would never put up numbers close to Favre.

The comments about Rodgers during his first 3 preseasons were pretty rough, perhaps worse than what is being said about Love. I rooted for Rodgers to succeed (as I do for Love), but I had my doubts as he looked just plain scared playing his first 2 preseasons. Seems a little early to make a definitive prediction of Love's career.

The majority of Packer fans are spoiled. They haven't seen the years of bad QBs that were under center in GB, prior to Majik. There were a few who were decent, but had nothing that represented a good team around them, so not even they had a chance to shine.

Over the last... what???..... 25+ years???.... We have been blessed with having Hall of Fame QBs on the field. Therefore, it doesn't really matter too much who is in line to get the job, they're probably never going to perform at that same level. Yet, rest assured, there are those who will throw them under the bus, even if they do rise to 90% or so, of that level, and be border line HOF material.

How good is Love? We don't know. We won't, until we see him play an extended period of time. Face it! All we're doing is guessing how good he'll be, on the basis of how he does playing with below-starter-level players, against the same, in the preseason. What we see in practice? Means nothing. What the coaches see in practice is different. They see what they're either creating, or trying to create.

My wife and I attended the Packer Shareholder meeting the year that Rodgers was handed the ball. The signs, and the people screaming for the heads of everyone in management was amazing. I kept a sign as a memory of that day. A reminder of just how wrong fans can be, when they go on a witch hunt ovre something they don't even have a clue as to what they're doing.

Me? I've decided, from that one day alone, that I'll wait to see just how good Love does, as the Packer QB, when it happens. I'm not going down that rabbit hole with fans who would prefer throwing him under the bus.

While the Packers need to make a decision on whether to exercise the fifth year option on Love he will count only $3.9 million towards the cap in 2023.

I had ST costing us at least 7 points. (I’ll give SF a FG on the punt block had it gotten off because they start at midfield area)

Had we had a top 10 ST unit we Win that game imo.

The Packers wouldn't have a needed a top 10 special teams unit to win the game vs. the Niners. It would have been enough to have one that could have gotten a punt off without it being blocked.

I remember what Rodgers looked like, it wasn't all that good. I don't think Rodgers is any more talented than Love. In fact I think Love might be more so. Where the rubber is going to meet the road is the work ethic. Rodgers learned from every mistake and studied himself and others and got better, and better and better. He's still getting better as far as i'm concerned. He works that hard.

Mistakes are ok when you're learning. Does he learn from them and keep studying and stay so consistent with his footwork and mechanics he excels? I don't know, we'll see I guess. He's certainly improved from last to this. he has to limit his mistakes obviously. Great drives aren't great when you toss a pick at the end. Stay consistent on mechanics and learn from mistakes he can be really good I think. But he's not there yet.

If GB scored more points than SF they advance in the play-offs. That wasn't even the NFC championship game let alone the SB and Nostredamus Sunshine has the Pack winning it all. Gotta Love it.
