    But these groupie hoes think Packers are Chiefs level! It seems like Why people have more cognitive issues as they age so could explain why they are crying about being .500. Had you asked them in August if that would suffice they would have claimed it was out of reach.

Maholmes is this generation of QBs G.O.A.T. so I can't possibly predict Love as his equal. I'll be happy with a poor man's maholmes. He has shown the signs. He has talent around him. We need to fix the running game.
    Love has also shown signs of Brett Hundley. See 4th quarter of Atlanta game, first 3 quarters of New Orleans game and first half of Detroit game. Sure, at times he looked Wu-Tang, but Love has gotta improve his accuracy, consistency, and - I am guessing it will come with experience - football IQ.

    Let’s get the raiders game in the books and I’ll be ready for some new prognostication.

    Then I’ll be curious to see the 4 games after the bye.



    By that point I’m going to have enough information to make my 100% foolproof prediction on who he is as an NFL quarterback.

    After 4 games I though i would know more about Lve than I do. I think he has untapped potential, but he might suck. I thought he was garbage for the first 24 hours after the draft, then i thought he had untapped potential and not suck. so 3+yrs in and i still dont know what i really think of him. Just hopes dreams and a pile of BS

    Love did a great job of staying calm under constant pressure. He seems to be making good decisions even when pressured. He's got the arm to make difficult throws. He's does miss opportunities due to inaccurate throws.

    I think he's gonna start a lot of games in the NFL. I don't think he's going to consistently carry a team by throwing for anyone if yards.

    I think there's really three checkpoints here to determine the career arc:
    (1) First game or two
    (2) After 6-8 games
    (3) Early next season

    I think he's okay; Arm strength, poise and decision making are good and likely to improve. Accuracy is a concern. Not sure how much he can or will improve there, maybe he can work on it in the offseason but I think he's going to be a gunslinger type QB who flirts with making the top 10 in his best seasons. I also think they'll probably extend him to an overpaying contract and look to move on in about 5-7 years after a few quick Kirk Cousins-esque playoff exits. I could be very wrong here, it's only been 4 games, but that's the vibe I get from him. He's still better than anything the Bears have had in the last 30 years.

    I think his floor is Jameis Winston and his ceiling is a Donovan McNabb type of player.

    How about "too early to say?" And this team has had too many key injuries since 2020 it seems. Love deserves at least a season and then several games with a healthy squad. He's got a really good receiver core for the next few years. Add a couple oline man and give him a couple years.

    And Hurts is a stud. He may never be a G.O.A.T but barring injury, I will always look forward to watching him. He's such a chill, soft spoken dude as well: love his character.

    Solid post. We can't be sure on Love, but I would like to see him operate behind a good run game and get him and NFL caliber LT. I'm in a minority on moving Jenkins, but he was damn good a couple years ago when he filled in for Bak. He can play the position at a high level and replacing guards is easier than franchise LTs.

    As for Hurts I was "juries still out" coming into this year. He has answered most questions and if he suddenly started playing poorly at this point I'd be shocked. Problem is I hate the Eagles so its hard for me to cheer for him.

    Claiming Love is not likely to be better than all but a handful of current NFL QBs is to say that Love's start to the season is a fluke. Is that what ya'all think - the mealy mouth poster who laughed at such an idea or the dumbass parrot who generally agreed with him?

    It seems to me that as good as Love has played, he has just scratched the surface. His "accuracy problem" seems to me to be not in his arm, but in his inexperience on when and how to put air under the ball or lead a receiver just a bit more or less. And that will certainly improve. And he has been nearly Aaron Rodgers-esque in not stupidly throwing into a crowd and getting picks like so many supposedly good QBs nowadays.

    I'm at a point where I'm comfortable now not necessarily predicting just yet that the Packers will have hit it big three times in a row, but that I sure wouldn't be surprised if it turns out that way.

    He made 3 really boneheaded interceptions lately that makes me think he’s a dumbass just like Favre was at times.
    Either way, by Christmas we’ll know if he’s the Great Black Hope - Hall of famer.

    Kinda has some Brett vibe to his game. He has the laser throws and doesnt fear the middle of the field like Eron seemed to. Already more fun to watch than bitch ass 12.

    No shit!
    So far we’ve seen him show wisdom beyond his years, but those retarded throws we saw are a concern.
    The “Eron,” wise with the ball is what I like seeing. Surely we want the gunslinger Favre at times, but let’s see more laser throws to the below average set of targets the young 24 year old man has.

    I disagree. He has 2 bonehead picks, and some that weren't a big deal. Tipped pass, obvious PI, and one that was effectively a punt on 3rd down taking a shot. I forgive picks on final drives while behind or final drives of the half with no time left a lot more than I forgive a pick with a 2 score lead that I see Jimmy G and even Josh Allen do all the time.

    His probability of being great is a lot higher now that I’ve seen him do a few great things than it was before when it was just the odds of any prospect being great.

    Love has a chance. I’d say 20% chance at being a borderline HOF type QB. He does some things that give him a chance. Well there is injury too. Let’s make that 10% chance, haha.

    Does he have 3 picks? I can only remember 2, and one of those it seemed pretty sure the receiver ran the wrong route. I seem to recall something about the other one that seemed like it wasn't completely his fault also. I think his game is a lot closer to Rodgers than to Favre. He maybe doesn't fear the middle of the field, but he also doesn't fear throwing incompletions - hence the fairly low completion percentage. A lot of those are middle of the field throws but not stupidly throwing it into a crowd.

    And he's mobile like Tarkenton (and Rodgers and Favre and Mahomes) - setting up throws - rather than taking off and running like Lamar Jackson and some others.

    Packers Twitter is handling Jordan Love taking over a lot better than the Bears have with Fields.

    Bears Twitter had 30% older guys doubting Fields
    And the rest of them defending him in really weirdo ways



    Packer Twitter has 30% skinbaskets, insistent he’s horrible
    And then nearly the rest of the 70% is waiting and seeing


    The Bears have been so QB down, they really haven’t handled things well. We’re a little more open over here to Love flopping or just being average. We’re definitely a more realistic fan base.

    Those two descriptions sound awfully similar to me.

    i'm becoming concerned

    his last 2 weeks have been bad, and his deep pass accuracy has been really bad

    big arm with no accuracy at this point. maybe we need to bring in kevin costner and susan sarandon to try and fix him

    I think you really only need Susan Sarandon.
