Why all the "LOVE"?

[MadtownPacker]

Wasn't that the main argument? Are we talking about skinbasket?

Yes but I was referring to his talk about Love regressing. The Clifford shit was just Skin man crushing on him to make Nutz jealous so no one paid it any mind.

Fair enough. His regression was very foreseeable. Anyone that thought it wasn't a real possibility was fooling themselves. It wasn't guaranteed, but it was why many of us were worried about the contract since it was based on only about half a year of play.

Will Levis ran for about 180 yards; please explain how rushing yards applies. Are you saying there's a connection between rushing yards and being a good QB? Mobility is nice, but Brady did fine with poise, pocket presence, subtle moves, and quick decision making.

The argument is that Love should be running when the opportunity or situation presents itself.
Instead, he is making ill-advised throws.

Just establishing the threat to run can give the defense one more thing to worry about. Especially in the red zone where the offense has less room to operate.

Year two regression is very common across many different sports. We'll see how next year goes. If we're having the same discussion next Jan, I don't think he's gonna be the guy long term.

Yep. CJ Stroud had a similar regression this year. Back in the day, Favre had a bigger 2nd year regression and didn't really turn it around until the 2nd half of his 3rd year. I think it will be interesting to see how he does with a new QB coach. Maybe he will have a better rapport with a younger up and coming guy than he had with the 71 year old Clements at the end of his career.

A very interesting take.
Maybe it permeates through the team.
We have a lot of great young potential.
QB for sure.
DL line for sure. They ran a bunch of high school stuff. (No offense Nutz)
I believe the Flower is about to come into his own.
Yes, I bleed Green and Gold, but I gotta feeling.

Well, I've come around to thinking that the Love we saw the second half of last year, and for a stretch of a few games this year, could not have been just a mirage. He performed.

Yes, he regressed - but I do think the shitty footwork was in part at fault, and I hope that they can fix that, as well as having the game slow down enough so his decision making gets better.

And then if the wide receivers catch the damn ball, well, that'll help a great deal, too.

That is kinda the two edged sword. A lot of those "drops" where marginal passes. If Love was more accurate with the passes the drops would have been far less. And the WR's weren't good enough to make Love better by catching the sub par throws.

Kinda funny last year we had some noticing they'd take Love over any QB in football. I have no clue where it is anymore. But this year he was just average.

[SkinBasket]

Calm down he isn’t your wife. At least not outside of prison. But sadly yes everything he said about Love as a QB has played out this season.

I will take that as an apology assuming you’re still in a country with internet.

[Sparkey]

Drops are not marked against a receiver if it is considered a bad throw...

Agree with that. I think the injuries made him reluctant to do so. I also think he wants to be a passer not a runner perhaps a bit too stubbornly, but i don't see anything wrong with running 5-6 yards and sliding if there's nobody open. 2nd and 5 is better than 2nd and 10, obviously.

[texaspackerbacker]

I think it's a matter of coaching - he's being told to keep the running to a minimum. Willis has more of a reputation as a runner than Love, and he didn't run much either when he played.

[ThunderDan]

Willis ran 20 times for the season and 16 times in the 3 games he started or saw significant playing time. Of course a bunch of those were designed QB runs and Read Options.

Apology?? Don’t be so pathetic dude this is the fucking Internet not your relationship . But I get your need for validation. I said it looks like you were right. Save that Oprah Winfrey type shit for afternoon television shows you tiny racist fuck!
