    How do they get far more control? I think the level of control is the same?

    I agree with you. Maybe there's the small small advantage that they could give him another extension next season, rather than waiting for a fifth-year option to clear.
    I believe in God, family, Baylor University, and the Green Bay Packers.

    That's true right up until there's a good reason for it not to be - a free agent they want to sign, one of our own we need to keep, etc. Then it's back to doing whatever needs to be done.
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

    Get ready for some throws this year that go when the receiver isn't. Dropped passes and miscommunications happen with young players.

    That said, there's a lot of upside for the young WR/TE group.

    On the flip side, the offense might be a little easier to learn for the young receivers. Won't have to learn all of Rodgers' infamous hand signals. Not as many plays being changed at the last second at the line of scrimmage. The onus will be on MLF with his play calling to avoid putting the offense in a bad matchup, which Rodgers could often get them out of with an audible.

    Agree. I doubt there will be the "can't work with most rookies because I can't trust them" thing that it seemed like Rodgers had. Can impact the production if not the confidence of a young player. Jordan Love has probably thrown to Deguara more than AR.
    It will definitely be on MLF to scheme favorable matchups and also to simplify things for some of the players. The TE position is notoriously tough because they have to know the offense better than anyone except the QB.

    Todd McShay's comments on Love prior to 2020 draft. Starts at 1:45.

    If Jordan Love can be even close to Herbert and not as injury-prone as Tua, he'll be okay. I won't even ask him to be as good as Burrows.

    Kurt Warner does an excellent breakdown of Love:



    Takeaways:
    Love is reading his keys correctly and decisively for the most part.
    His throws are accurate.

    Occasionally, he forces when he shouldn't.
    His deep balls didn't have enough air to allow the receiver to adjust. Kurt thinks it's a footwork issue.
    Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!

    Will be interesting to see how he does over several games. He's made progress since his rookie year for sure, but it obviously remains to be seen if he is GB's next franchise QB.

    Burrow and Maholmes will be waging war in the AFC for the next decade. He is as real as they come. Poor Josh Allen and bills fans. I don't see an Owl in their future.

    Call it drafting skill or good or bad luck in each of these cases as well as in the many busts, it is far from an exact science to snag a successful pro QB based on what he did in college.

    Bottom line, it was monumentally STUPID to move up in the first round to draft Love - for reasons way beyond the most obvious one, still having the GOAT who will still be good for many more years.

    So what is your stupid ass point? Don’t you live in reality? Oh wait you are the moron who blindly follow things just because they fall in line with his beliefs. What a stupid mfer you are. Wish I could get you over here with some skank bitches that would have you buy them dope all night for sex then rob you in the morning. Then we could see how Good and Normal you really are.
    Just looking back in this thread. This post is an All-Time Great for Packerrats.
    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.

    It wouldn't surprise me if he ends up not being a long term starter but right now he looks like he's going to be a good player.
