Well, I actually used to post here quite a bit until about 5 or 6 years ago but I couldn't remember my login so I figure I'll just start over lol

What you describe are attributes of all great QBs. He isn't "like" either one of them. He is Jordan Love....his own man. Contrary to what talking heads want to say to make a story, Love developed because of Jordan Love. Rodgers played a role like any team mate and/or coach, no more, no less.
I don’t remember where I heard it recently, but someone on the team said Rodgers took love under his wing and showed him as much as he could.
There were things Rodgers did so incredibly well in his HOF career. Physically, especially mobilely, he declined. But mentally, he had some things he did and does that are special. And sometimes he got stubborn with his style and it backfired. Love got to take the good and observe when it went too far. He definitely learned a lot from being with Rodgers.
I’ll bet when Loves career is really defined, he’ll mention Rodgers as a big impact on his career.
^ From what I've seen, Love's pretty damn good when he gets blitzed, a lot like K-Aaron.
No worse? Much better 2023 was the outcome!
I like what I've been seeing with his head and the way he connects with his Receivers. He can deliver the ball accurately in different arm postions. His vision is well focused. He benefitted by watching Aaron Rodgers. The back wrong leg throws and his jump throws are getting it done.
I have no concerns now just go down to Texas next week and place fear in Mike McCarthy hahaha. Best up those Cowboys!

I see Fare and Rodgers in Jordan Love.
It's a big relief to see RB Aaro Jones on point. I'm pumped for the Packers visit and stopover in Texas next weekend. I love our HC and we are hot and going to get real heay on Mike McCarthy next Weekend. I feel a McCarthy choke.
woodbuck...Go Pack GO !
Woody!! Man you are losing it in your old age. That’s Spaulding your responding to! :lol:
Watching MLF scheme guys open last 8 weeks has made me wonder what last few years might have been like if Rodgers had just fully embraced the MLF offense.
Yeah I can’t hate on him. “Pepe” came out the regular season smelling like roses.

Packers win means no Jets at Packers game next year.
I still have questions about his deep ball accuracy but no significant questions about his short game. He does seem to throw behind guys more often than I'd like. I think this lack of accuracy may be off-set by his willingness to sling it. He is a weird mashup of Brett and Aaron where he'll throw it up anywhere but somehow doesn't actually throw interceptions.
Yeah, late, across your body and over the middle is a bad combination, especially if you don't throw it where only your guy can catch it.
Love has outplayed the 2008 and 2022 versions of Rodgers. Looks like we're all going to see how his career unfolds. I expect they'll be announcing an extension in May.
He does have a list of things to work on -- his footwork being one. MLF did adjust plays to his strengths (as he should) but smart teams will watch film and find ways to better defend and take away the throws he does best.
I think if he works on his fundamentals his accuracy will improve everywhere on the field. Assuming there is continued improvement and development at the skill positions, that will help him out too.
Everyone can polish fundamentals. Until the retire. They’ll never stop doing that.
But Love is very accurate falling away and it’s far better for him to fall a way more often than to stand in there too often and get killed. That is way overblown to me.
Occasionally he doest have his feet turned in the right direction and I see him miss 90% of those. But those are rare in the second half of the season. Maybe one every two games lately.
The primary criticism people lay on his fundamentals is the fall away, and I insist it’s an asset.
FINAL 8 games for LOVE
18 TD's and 1 INT
70.3 percent completion %
112.4 passer rating
