Rainmaker90 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 It really seems like people who still don’t like the fact we took a QB in the first round are just looking for reasons not to like Jordan Love. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not looking for reasons to like or dislike Jordan Love. I hope he becomes a Pro Bowler in time, but you gotta score points, not just style points.

Jaire_Island Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 If you look at the circumstances Jordan love has to play with 2nd/3rd team vs Bills 1st team. Its not fair to judge his performance at this point of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like that interception or that pass in the endzone that was almost picked off if it wasn't tipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R T Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 *GASP* Love didn't put up a perfect and herculean effort against the Bills? What a bust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you factor in everything ( like him playing with mostly fringe roster players ) the end results aren’t the most important things.

It isn’t in that much of his preseason was against 2nd and 3rd string players as you pointed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo had their starters in the game the entire time Jordan Love was playing. Also, other than possibly three interior linemen, Love had back ups and 3rd stringers. He still moved the ball up and down the field. A blown tackle and missed field goal or he put up 10 to Buffalo's 14 in the first half. The original post was trying to compare him to Brett Hundley which is just awful and so dishonest when Hundley was in fact, playing mop up against scrubs.

{Family Ghost} Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 There were some stupid decisions by Love, but the fact that he was able to move the team up and down the field with the Packers #5, #6 and #7 receiver, and a #3 and #4 TE was at least somewhat impressive. He was facing the Bills starters for basically the entire time he was in there. Love is going to be fine .. gonna be a good starter in this league.

The original post was trying to compare him to Brett Hundley which is just awful and so dishonest when Hundley was in fact, playing mop up against scrubs. Actually that's inaccurate. Buffalo started pulling starters in the 2nd quarter. I should've worded that better, my bad. I've been an outspoken critic on the whole Love situation, but nobody can argue that he's Hundley. Hundley would often be completely lost much like Kizer, but even as one of Love's biggest critics I certainly can contend that he at least has a clue as to what is happening around him(at worst). I still contend that his accuracy, which was still an issue, and his decision-making skills(the hero-ball stuff we've discussed before) are still highly problematic. I also rest on what I said before in that we as fans can at least have some sort of clue as to where he is in his development, which allows us to criticize and commend but only to a point. I think someone posted this in another thread, but someone in the media has floated out that Love might get playing time this season in blowouts and easy match-ups. If he can get quality snaps in regular season games in which he's consistently playing quality opponents, we can then continue the discussion further from what we've seen on the surface in these preseason games.
