Let's compare that to Jordan Love. Trevor Lawrence: 161-270 (59.6%), 1773 passing yards (6.6 YPA), 8 passing TD (2.6%), 9 INT (3.3%) Jordan Love: 135-234 (57.7%), 1492 passing yards (6.4 YPA), 11 passing TD (3.4%), 8 INT (3.4%) I'm not saying that Jordan Love is Trevor Lawrence, but Lawerence struggled badly in his first year as a starting QB. Largely because of a poor supporting cast. My guy one has been in the league for 3 years. The other was a rookie. Legitimately. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One was viewed as a generational prospect and arguably the best QB prospect since Peyton Manning, and the other one was viewed as a 2-3 year project before he was ready to play in the NFL. But hey, because they sit in the NFL they must be getting valuable game experience. Oh wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. You're naive if you think sitting on the bench for the 2 seasons in Green Bay has anywhere near the same value as the experience you gain from playing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trey Lance Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) As a depressed 49ers fan post Superbowl, there was nothing that made be happier than when the Packers decided to level up by taking Love and Dillon back-to-back when you already have a HoF MVP QB and a probowl RB.

Ya a guy that got the three years to sit and learn behind one of the greatest to play QB with an offensive head coach who had a ton of success. The other one had Urban freaking Meyer who was off dancing with college chicks after games and kicking his kicker for some reason. Ya both QBs supporting casts stunk but Love’s situation is so much better than what TLaw had in his first 7-8 starts it isn’t even close lol. Very odd comparison to try and make. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not with Joe Barry. Need a DC who can amplify his players talents instead of mute them. It's embarrassing he's still employed and makes you seriously question LaFleur's judgement. This is a badly coached team right now across the board, so the issue runs deeper than what positions were targeted. The defense has way too much talent to be this bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you are defending your guy but this is just blasphemous c'mon 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funniest part of all this is how letting rookies sit for 3 years was "The Packer Way" and guaranteed success. Now that its a colossal failure its all about comparing Love to rookies. Hilarious. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like people are backtracking....but maybe that is just me. 🤪 Tell me why it isn't the best way to introduce a QB to the league? It isn't like Love was a top 5 pick and ready to play. Kid needed time. GB wasn't in a position to draft a QB with his potential upside for quite some time and likely wouldn't be that close with Rodgers under center. So, they went for it. They had a plan. They worked the plan. And? It's failed so far. I don't fault the process so much as I fault the outcome right now. Jordan Love isn't killing this offense, he's part of multiple things that are failing right now. And since he's the QB, he gets too much praise when things go right and too much blame when things go bad. Now, if you wish to argue that GB shouldn't have drafted Love back then and instead given Rodgers weaponz? I can't argue that, but I can point to Rodgers' play and how it went up directly after the selection of Love. Two MVP's in 3 seasons after Love was drafted. None in the prior 5 when he was arguably coming down from his Prime years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packerraymond Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Thread is full of box score scouts who don't watch Packers games. Jordan Love is one of the smallest issues the Packers have, wouldn't even say "issues". I'd try to extend him right now when the perceived value is low. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
