  1. It's pretty stupid. At this point in my life I could probably live with them going elsewhere tbh. I rarely make it to the stadium but yeah it would obviously be sad and I would feel bad for the diehards and the city. It won't really do anything though as plenty of places will take them in and build what they want. I do feel like the league structure is broken beyond repair so that's probably part of it. When you rarely attend games, live an hour+ away and they insist on making the games a pain to be able to watch on TV, there is a bit of disconnect that happens. I definitely don't feel as close to the team as I did in the early 2000s, some of that is age, some of that is I watched almost every night.
  2. Their run game doesn't exist but there are minimal opportunities for him to go down field as well. Combination of passive playcalling, having to leave extra guys in to block and Love missing when they try. When your TE and RB both chip the edge rusher that is two guys either not on a route or requiring an extra second to do so. It sounds crazy at 2-3, but honestly they aren't going to win anything this year so I'd almost prefer they just prioritize trying to figure out what Love can do, and find a downfield offense above winning. They need to get Love and all those young WRs going.
  3. Josh Allen is one that looked rough and ascended to the top.
  4. Honestly they also seem to be better right away than they used to be. I think they drafted Love with the intention of him starting in 2021. I think they thought Rodgers's decline was going to make that easy enough to do.
  5. When they beat the Eagles (barely) in the WC game, the first question Rodgers was asked was "How does it feel to have the postseason monkey off your back?" This was his 3rd year as a starter, and second-ever playoff game after a loss in which he scored 6 touchdowns. They have always been running these stupid narratives. 10 guys threw for 4,000 yards that year, Kyle Orton throwing for 3,800. I'm not saying people thought Rodgers sucked, just that he wasn't yet this almighty Lord. He was seen as pretty good. I don't think he was even selected to the Pro Bowl the year they won the Super Bowl.
  6. Rodgers never really lit anything on fire until his 4th year as a starter TBH. The playoffs of his 2nd year more accurately with the 45-pt game. Their offense looked really bad during parts of 2010, but that season's playoffs he really started making a name. He wasn't getting major praise until 2011. He was sort of viewed as pretty good but not great. The divisional game in Atlanta was really the coming out party.
  7. Honestly, I wonder sometimes how any of this is enjoyable for some of the fans. It just seems like you guys are always stressed out and miserable about stuff like cap dynamics 2 years from now. Who cares? I mean I just listened to everyone tell me for a year that Dame in MKE was an impossibility. Just accept this is a new dawn and they are going to suck. Take some joy in Love having a good week or hitting a nice throw. This is likely to be a long and painful journey. Dwelling on who we should have traded 2 years ago is just going to make you miserable.
  8. Don't mean this personally but more of a general comment. Every Packers fan, for their own mental health, needs to move on past the fact that we drafted him and he sat 3 years. It's over, and we are here now. Personally I don't think it's fair to him, he had literally no control over when he was going to play. He is in a really tough spot right now. Would he be farther along if he played in 2021, yes probably, and the team would have been better. In a perfect world, knowing we don't win the Super Bowl, we trade Rodgers after the first MVP. But right now we have a roster full of guys that couldn't get into a bar 1-2 years ago. It was likely to be ugly this season. He's got to get at least a year to sift through this. You just can't do that on the bench and in practice. If we are obsessed that he looks worse than Rodgers did, we may in for a long 60 years.
  9. It is not like they knew it would be 3 years. Rodgers was looking washed at the time of the pick. Considering they absolutely should have at least been in the Super Bowl one of those years, and arguably twice, despite drafting Love, it's hard for me to believe it was really that big of a deal in the end.
  10. I would agree. My biggest concern with Love so far is the accuracy down field. The picks are whatever. They're doing so little offensively it's natural to start forcing dumb throws to make something happen. They are constantly leaving guys in to chip pass rushers and the roster is just so raw all over the place. But he isn't hitting some deep throws where the play is there. And sometimes he is way off the mark. Personally I don't really care that he waited 3 years nor will I hold that against him as though he should be better. To get better you need to play real games.
  11. Either the shambled OL or the WRs would be a lot to ask of Love...they have asked him to do both...and without Aaron Jones. It's too much. Maybe he isn't the answer but I don't think many would look good at QB on this team right now. To put it in some perspective Rodgers also came in with a poor OL. But he was throwing to Driver and Jennings who both had 1,000 yard seasons. Nelson was a rookie that season.
  12. He was bad, that is indisputable. And yes Jenkins did play. Misread a headline that had Jones out but used his photo.
  13. Love's been completely set up to fail. I'm not even saying he's good but give him a break guys. -David Bhaktiari is literally useless -Elgton Jenkins isn't playing -Aaron Jones has played 1 game -Christian Watson has essentially played 1 game -His veteran wideout right now is Romeo Doubs If I gave you this list in June, how would you think things are going?
  14. Again though. The best player on the team has essentially played one game. His left tackle is a franchise player making franchise money who has probably played his last game. The top 2 WRs are 2nd year players and I can barely name the guys behind them. The other all pro on the line is not playing. These are not small obstacles. A lot is going poorly for Love.
  15. Love's been uninspiring for a few weeks. This team is just not too good.
  16. I feel like those are all major reasons that we suck.
  17. Joe and Troy are obsessed with Crosby.
  18. Bad throw. Not open by any stretch and if you're going to try that window you can't throw it a yard behind him.
  19. You should get the ball at the goal line on that kind of penalty. Really dumb that you don't.
  20. I was 100% sure we were getting roughing on that.
  21. The Diamondbacks appear well positioned to carry on the tradition of the team that eliminated us going on a deep postseason run. We have never been knocked out by a team that didn't play in the World Series and most of them won it.
  22. I have been very critical of Dillon but the wrap on him has always been that he needs a lot of touches to get going. 30-35 was normal for him at BC. The spelling they usually do with him was never really his thing though at this level you have to figure out what they're giving you. Glad to see him do something though.
  23. Whoa there big guy. Slow down! I'll take 7 yards.
  24. I think Love is ok. Not beating the world, not awful, just ok. There is just not much going his way either. A bad offensive line, the best player on the team has been hurt all year, there isn't a viable backup RB. No veteran receiver to make things easy. MLF...maybe not that great? I'm not sure. I will be a little more concerned if we get to the end of this season and things don't look better on the eye test. I didn't think they'd be too hot this year anyway. No substitute for real game action...I am willing to wait a few months.
