      I wonder if Malik Taylor can get more routes down than the back shoulders and come back routes. He’s got a couple go to routes though. It’s a starting point. It’s like a pass rusher with a decent power move that needs to develop some counters.

        I think if Taylor had to start, corners would learn to sit on those come backs and back shoulders.

          Nope. I can't stand Rand though I might have a philosophy book coming out soon debunking some of the idols of philosophy. Rand is a 3rd rate philosopher & writer and doesn't make the cut.

          I am just having fun. Actually I feel pretty good about Love & Kurt going forward. One of them might be above average; and they should do ok in Lafleur's system.

          Enjoy the last dance.

              Even in a preseason game with no starters in there, one thing worried me like maybe it's a scheme weakness of our D - those short jet sweeps or outside runs in general where our OLBs seem to be way too easy to jam up inside. I hope Barry can figure out and fix that.

              I ask ya'all - almost like a poll, did you really think Love outplayed Benkert? Yeah, he has the built-in excuse of playing against damn good D, better than what Benkert played against, but I really thought Benkert looked quicker, threw better, had better judgment, etc.

              In the O Line, Braden and Hanson I thought stunk. Nijman was a lot more good than bad. Runyan looked fairly good, and Van Lanen had only one bad play that I saw and a few good ones playing Guard.

              It's really hard to watch a shitshow like today, but it ain't the coaches' job to give fans entertainment in the preseason. It gives us all a taste of what it's like to be a Bears fan hahahaha.

              How did ya'all like our late game replacement punter?

                Good for the personnel dept and coaches to see the 2's and 3's play against an AFC playoff team playing its 1's. Did not expect them to win but imagine if they were better in the RZ.
                Agree with Tex re: Love -- he played some very good, some very knucklehead. MLF should be enough of a QB whisperer to help him develop. Love needs another year but I have a bad feeling this is it for Rodgers in GB and Love will be thrust into starting next year before he's really ready. (I hope I'm wrong.) Love was able to move the ball with mostly backups. Also, yay for those backups not getting him killed.

                The defense was the concern last year, and it still is until we see the starters play. Had I been told pre-game that Josh Allen was going to be throwing to Cole Beasley and Gabriel Davis against S-JC, Ento, and Yiadom then I would've expected more carnage honestly. Starters should win vs. bubble guys most of the time.

                  It's not really relevant if Love outplayed Benkert; Love is our backup. I'm not really sure either jumped above the other but Love has more upside and he was a 1st and 4th round draft pick so he's our backup

                    If Love is lucky enough to get one more season behind Rodgers, and then gets thrown into the fire next year…. Nothing is more ideal for a young QB. Same offense in his third year. Rodgers is breaking in the two rookie OL this year. Next year we go in with Bakh, Jenkins, Meyers, Newman and Turner. Hell yeah, love is in a great situation. I don’t expect him to win 13 games but I do expect him to show promise right away. He’s been lucky enough to already have that Rodgers cadence to play with. He’s already getting guys offsides with it.

                    In an ideal world, I think we keep Tonyan, Lazard and MVS so Love has some long term veterans pieces to throw to. And then draft another one somewhat high.

                    Jones and Dillon are nice pieces for Love to start out with.

                    And Deguara and Tonyan.

                    Love is walking into one of the most ideal young QB situations in recent history. I’m not saying he needs to play like a savvy vet, but if he doesn’t look solid like Rodgers did early in his career, I’ll be disappointed.

                      I was encouraged by Love. He has all the things you can’t teach. It’s up to him to develop. Has to get the hero ball out of his system. He looked better in his first preseason action than Rodgers, and probably better than Rodgers in his second preseason. I’m still on the bandwagon.

                        Very quick takes. Love looks like a really good backup who needs another year. Hill is a stud and perhaps my best draft call ever. Taylor is WR 6 unless Kumerow gets cut and Rodgers insists on bringing him back. OL is set and Patrick is a lock with how bad the Hansen played. What do they do when bak returns. Someone has to go to the bench and I can't guess who it will be. Our D wasn't as bad as I expected with 2s vs 1s. No one impressed me enough to comment on though. Yiadom can go back to the scrap heap we found him on.

                          Tex, the D was playing vanilla against Josh frickin Allen. You can only judge individual efforts.

                          Yes, Love was much better than Benkert given who he was playing against and with.

                          I agree with your OL assessment. Braden might have played himself off the roster to be honest.

                            I’m on the band wagon too. He makes some really good throws. I love the situation he’s in. If he takes over next year, he gets a veteran OL that Rodgers broke in for him. That’s a big deal too. Third year in MLFs offense. He’s in a great spot to show his stuff early.

                              The relevance would be the best case scenario - which I don't expect to happen, trade Love and Benkert becomes an adequate back up the nest few years.

                                Sort of feeling good about Love after watching some of the plays from today's game. Specifically the throw to Begelton on the free play at 2:00 in the 2nd quarter.

                                My original complaint with Rodgers, when he was relieving Favre in Dallas way back in 2007, was that I didn't feel he was playing with anticipation. Love does not seem to have that issue. Granted, he's going to have to make better decisions in the red zone, but the release is there. The anticipation is there. And he has a strong arm and athleticism. If we have to turn to him next year, or perhaps (knock on wood) this year, we may be okay.
