How Will J-Love's Career Play Out?

[texaspackerbacker]

Have you seen any of his games this year?

[Fritz]

He's going to be better than Prescott. My mom might be better than Prescott. That dude sucks.

[texaspackerbacker]

The way Dak is playing this year, having Love play at that level would be great. I see a lot of Dak, and there is some similarity with Love, especially after Dak's injury and his being less apt to take off running. Probably both of them are under-appreciated by many in here hahahaha.

[Bretsky]

Honesty, Dak might be about what he is if we’re lucky.

agreee; that might be his best case comp

[RashanGary]

Boy, ain't that the truth. LOL. Poor man's Dak!!! Eeeek.

A 'poor man's Dak Prescott" is really an awful QB, because Dak Prescott himself is a really lousy QB. He has been starting for several years now and he still throws numerous stupid interceptions. At least Love has the excuse of this being his first year as a starter.

Boy, ain't that the truth. LOL. Poor man's Dak!!! Eeeek.

[bobblehead]

Honestly I think he will follow a Jimmy G, Carr, Goff, etc. path. He will never be great. He will be good enough to start for awhile. He probably will be good enough that another team will give him a shot. If he plays for a modest contract you could win an Owl with him.

[bobblehead]

Well...i do remember Josh Allen came into this league with a big arm and no accuracy...look at him now, 73.1% comp rate. Love just needs the game reps and 1st team practice reps to get better.

Allen went through a very specialized program completely revamping his footwork and some other flaws during that tilting offseason. He was really committed. Hopefully Love is as well. Allens problem will always be that he makes too many really bad decisions.

josh alln was a starter from day one

this is loves 4th year in the nfl

he's been working with nfl coaches for 4 years, there shouldn't be growing pains to this extent. thats the whole point of having a guy sit for 3 years

That’s fine but he still needs the NFL game experience. Sitting on the bench watching from the sidelines is a big difference between being on the field playing the game.
5 games is too early to tell just yet. Ya his stock has dropped from week one but let’s not throw in the towel just yet.

i'm becoming concerned

his last 2 weeks have been bad, and his deep pass accuracy has been really bad

big arm with no accuracy at this point. maybe we need to bring in kevin costner and susan sarandon to try and fix him

I'm standing my my call of the poor man's Dac Prescott

His accuracy is average at best.

His deep ball accuracy was bad when he came into th eleague and now it's just OK

He's a guy you never give big money to IMO

Until their shit show of an offensive line improves, I'm reserving my final judgement. Let's not forget that even Rodgers and Favre had shit games when they had constant pressure.

I'm not making excuses for Love. he hasn't shown me enough to make me confident he'd be good enough with better blocking, but I haven't given up all hope either.

[Joemailman]

Much to shithead skinbaskets delight the MNF performance slightly rattled my faith. The last INT the throw was good spot just too late. He pulls the trigger right away and Watson would have just ran up to it in the end zone. But he didn’t so now hope it was just learning curve.

In Love's defense, he was under pressure because Jenkins missed his block. He had to move to his left to escape the pressure so he could get the throw off.
