hell of a play by mahomes

[beveaux1]

Game.

[George Cumby]

Welp.

[beveaux1]

Double covered and wide open by 10 yards.

[Bretsky]

For a first start... In KC... when Rodgers was ruled out on Wed...

Yes, Love has looked reasonably good for a noob. To expect him to play like Rodgers, which some of you seem to expect, is illogical.

Is a noob what the expectation was ?

[George Cumby]

No loss is good, but at least it's a non-conference opponent.

The Defense is so stout.

Love is NOT bad. There's stuff to be worked with there.

ST's OMFG.

[Bretsky]

Love has looked better in the 2nd half. Not good, but better.

I don't think KC blitzed as much with the 13 point lead

[Freak Out]

Uh yes. Did I hope for more....sure. We have watched a HOF QB throw six picks in a game before though so stuff happens on occasion.

[Bossman641]

If only we could pair last year's offense with this year's defense. Hopefully the return of Bakh will turn things around. Newman has been disappointing.

I would have liked more, but I didn't expect it. He got somewhat better as the 2nd half progressed.

They were 7 point favorites and we lost by 6. I expect his next start to be better.

Is he the answer for next year? Based on just this game...no. For him, he hopes the Packers allow his development.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Home ref. That was an easy taunt.

Oh well. We played alright outside of 3rd down conversion, STs - again. Long fields.

7-2 ain’t bad.

Unless we get super lucky.

Excuses are for losers - Vince Lombardi

[Fosco33]

Those fg’s… smh.

Was closer than it appeared due to the defense. Oh well

[texaspackerbacker]

This was about the best we could have hoped for. The D held 'em to 13 points. We would have won the game by a couple of TDs with Rodgers. We can afford a loss at this point.

Love was good enough that we should be able to get something for him in trade, and he was bad enough that it should solidify keeping Rodgers long long term.

Hopefully his "next start" is for some other team - or 5-10 years from now for the Packers hahahaha.

I don’t know, I think it’s still a holding pattern on which way to go. Love was just good enough that maybe you move on. I’d like to see Love in one more game.
