Disclaimer: I'm not on the Jordan Love bandwagon. Lots of room for improvement, but this was encouraging.

Now if the offense can only look decent in the first half for a change.

Amazing what a running game can do for a guy. We wore them down and put them away. They are bad. We aren't good. Love did what he needed to do. Lets see what happens in Pittsburg when Joe Barry can shine against a team with a bad QB, but all sorts of weapons.

If you think about it, the Rams trotted out a bad QB with a few good weapons (Kupp, Nacua). Their defense wasn't without its stars -- they aren't what they were a few years ago, but they still had Aaron Donald and a few other good players. (I'd trust Raheem Morris as a DC more than Joe Barry)
I do think PIT will be a tough game for GB - on the road, and their defense is good. You have to assume GB is the underdog is every game except for CAR, NYG, and probably CHI going forward.

GB is not a good team right now, it was nice to see them get a win though. It remains to be seen if they become a better team and more competitive as the season goes on. That would signal the player development we're waiting for.

You could see signs of an emerging offense. Nijman played well and then when he left with an injury, Walker looked much more focused and aggressive run blocking.

I'd like to see the non action penalties cut down. False starts, offsides (both very questionable calls) and the delay are killers that are really inexcusable. They definitely came out more aggressive this game on offense.

They were close to taking a real step on offense Sunday. 2 penalties on successful 4th down attempts and 2 fumbles at the end of successful plays got in the way.

Don't know where exactly to post this.
Once again we have the youngest team.
Learning every rep, every game.
Are we going to make post season? Fuck no.
I'm a wait and see kind of guy.
Dont know shit from x's and o's.
But from what I hear a premier key is give the kid a bit of time, let the game slow down.
So, less than a half season....let's see how it plays out
I (in all my football ignorance) believe J Love is going to find it

Agreed, but Rypien was on a different level of bad than the Pitt guy.

Also, Cliff Christl assures me that its all about the starts and the rest don't really matter. I used go submit questions, and insist that, while that is true with elite QBs, every other "star" can be schemed around if you don't have enough talent around him. Cliff is a widely recognized writer. I'm just a humble fan.

You can improve route running, but you can't learn to be the fastest guy in the NFL (or right up there). You can't learn to be 6'4" but you can add muscle. I have seen him flat out bust angles 3 times in something like 15 games he has played now. If things around him improve, that kind of elite athleticism always has a shot.

completely agree; the potential is undoubtedly there.

Well, we found something he’s consistent about.

Throwing picks in the clutch?

[SkinBasket]

I thought that was kinda self explanatory

[MadtownPacker]

You found your first disciple!! Be careful that one might sell you out for some silver.

Throwing picks in the clutch?

The first one was clearly pass interference as well as the bad luck of a deflection. The second one was a desperation heave as time ran out. Yeah, I suppose Rodgers woulda done better, although under the circumstances, it's hard to imagine how. Clifford? I like him as a back up QB, but no way he's as good as Love.

How good is Love anyway? He’s probably right up there with Mac Jones. And Jones got benched for the third time this season on Sunday.

The Watson picks are dumb. Watson was doubled on the first; shoulda targeted someone else, preferably Doubs. 2nd one, Frog shoulda called a “hook and ladder” but that was the dumbest Hail Mary I’ve ever seen in my life. Hail Marys are supposed to be prayers, not gimme picks.
