JT is awesome. My favorite analyst. Love is a big post season performance away from being crowned.

I have gone through every episode on love this season. Good and bad.
Last 3 have felt great

Very good stuff. Thanks for sharing.

In Bobble’s glorious GameDay thread, thunderdan, among others, thought it was dumb for Love to take a sack prior to Carlson’s last FG. If you’re gonna take a sack, why not just pound the rock, they burted.
I was like, yo, Love taking a sack is smart as fuck. Gotta go for the metaphor kill. Incompletion stops clock; turnover is dumb. If nobody’s open, take sack to milk clock further!
Ole JT agrees with moi. Nobody was open.
Btw, Welcome back, Cumby. I was sure you were marooned on that desert you love to visit. What’s it called again? Joey’s Tree?
I'm not going to stop the wheel. I'm going to break the wheel.
Love was trying to get back to the line of scrimmage or at least get every yard he could. Throwing an incomplete pass was the worse outcome.
And I stand by what I said which isn't what you are inferring. We could absolutely not have an incompletion. We should not have taken a sack or at least not a 10 yard sack.
The Pack if they were going to throw needed a quick hitter and if it wasn't there Love needed to take off up the middle to save or gain as many yards as possible.
There was no reason to run a play where the QB need to take a 7 step drop and lose 10 yards. If that was the play call, I would have rather run the ball.
But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

They were aggressive. They probably thought they would catch KC playing the quick hitter and decided the risk reward was worth it. Had they completed a long pass and most everyone would be saying how great it was that they stayed aggressive.
Next time we're in a similar situation, the opposing team seeing this might respect the deep ball and the quick pass may be open.
The all-22 seems to say that Love was seeking “John” Wicks for a short out route. DB covering Wicks was in the “pistol force” with outside leverage, blanketing said route. Love had time to throw a 50-50 rock to Doubs outside on a go route. Wisely waved the white flag with 95 of the Chefs zooming in after dominating the double team blocks of Runyan and Tom.

The playcall might suck, but going for the kill and subsequently taking the sack in that situation do not. As ole JT mentioned, the 48 yarder or so that Carlson made is something any NFL kicker is expected to make.

JT said he should have committed to running as soon as the 1st option was covered. A little more nuanced than what you said, but sure. You called it.
The QB School is a great watch/listen.
Except Anders has been anything but money as of late.

Taking the sack was the best option after the play broke down. Seems they tried to go for the endzone to put the game away. Im good with that.
I'm in 100% agreement that the sack at that point in the play was the best option.

Glad to see folks are watching O'Sullivan, I've learned a ton from his channel and I'm much better watching the game now as a result.
My big takeaway from this vid, and all of his break downs of Jordan this season, is, as JT said "So. Fucking. Good". or something along those lines. Love is getting better and better as the season progresses and his knowledge, experience and confidence grow.
APRH, Love's floor is pretty damn high and his ceiling, well, we just don't know how high that is. We have every reason to feel very confident moving forward.
He might have outside leverage but he wasn't in pistol force. Pistol force is not a pass coverage. You wouldn't know that never have ever played a defensive halfback position.
Keep watching JT's UTube channel. It's excellent and you may learn enough football to fool others into thinking you were a "shutdown corner".
Not me, tho. I know better.

His accuracy has improved, but they've also leaned into the KINDS of shot throws he's best at. Love is excellent laying deep throws outside the numbers on corners, deep overs, and slot fades.
He's far less accurate throwing sideline go balls or seam/posts to the middle.

I agree with you about going for the kill, but he shoulda rolled out, got outside the tackle box, and thrown it away rather than making it a ten yard longer kick for a shaky rookie kicker.
What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?
