  1. Probably because it doesn't matter who you are throwing to if the ball is 5 feet away. Why would you run complex downfield plays when Love can't accurately throw 5 yards in front of himself? You can throw a lot of blame around on offense, but Love is easily the biggest issue so far. The only other player on the map would be AJ Dillon, but at least he takes care of the ball.
  2. Yah, I noticed his yards per attempt was pretty high. Again, probably due to his running game sucking and long yardage to go is pretty common. Also probably due to defense's stacking the field to take away mid-range stuff from him because he certainly can't accurately throw it far. It would be nice to get Jones back healthy. Right now it feels like a lot of 'make Jordan Love beat us' and there are probably less than five QBs in the NFL that can beat a defense with that gameplan.
  3. The line hasn't been stellar, but it isn't like it has been atrocious either. Their sack percentage is only 20th in the league. Love has been pressured on 21% of drop backs...which really isn't that terrible, good for 20th in the league. His 11 hits while passing is 10th lowest in the league. He has been blitzed the 3rd lowest amount in the NFL. It doesn't excuse pacing the NFL's worst completion percentage by 4%, being tied for second in INTs, second worst bad throw %, and 8th worst on-target throw percentage. The one thing actually going against him is the fact his running game doesn't exist, so they don't really have to invest much thought in stopping the run. That really isn't going to do Jordan Love many favors trying to find guys open. However, the fact he has terrible accuracy also is a solid reason they don't blitz him. Why do him any favors and potentially leave a guy open? He isn't going to thread the needle and actually hit his WRs on the numbers.
  4. I think you are underestimating how quickly a SS ages…especially one providing most of their value based on defense. Javier Báez provided a 32 defense value per fangraphs, best at the position in 2019. He was at 12.5 in 2023. Heck, he had like a 7 in 2021 Lindor went from 21 to 11 since 2021 Correa 15 to 4 since 2021 He may only be 28, but a lot of guys lose that elite defense in their late 20s. Guys usually don’t put up those big time defensive number that long. His bay may not regress much by 32, but that really isn’t where Adames provides a ton of his value.
  5. I don't think the field is at fault for Rodgers' achilles tear. I think it was due to carrying MLF on his back for years. I honestly think MLF is a Bottom 10 coach. His in-game coaching is pretty terrible and whatever his responsibility in the defense coordinator still being here is another fail. Though I think it has been inferred in the past that may be a decision above him. The only thing he does well is not have the entire locker room implode and hate him/each other.
  6. Before the season he was comping himself to the top deals for SS...so yah, even if his inflated self worth has lost some air, I don't think he is accepting that. Not sure the Brewers would even do it.
  7. Phillies darn near made that three teams this year.
  8. Love has had years upon years to prepare for this moment behind one of the greatest QBs ever to play. Even if his situation is less than ideal, it is quite a bit better than most ‘rookie’ QBs typically have. I get you can’t replace actual in game playing completely, but jeez. He should be better than this. I, for one, wish the Packers would stop trying to win ever game at all costs. Because it ends up being Love throwing 5 yards and very little risk taking. We aren’t winning the Super Bowl this year. Find out what he can and can’t do. Not baby the offense all game long for him.
  9. Lmao Love, have a game. Dude hasn’t been good all year, really showing now.
  10. wow, Ref trying to be the main character. Literally no one calls that short.
  11. That felt more like a play call that lead to a sack. Wanted a deep shot, neither was open. Love rightfully just took the sack.
  12. Fresh start after Rodgers and we brought back this whole ‘L’ coaching staff.
  13. He was extended when he was promoted to General Manager. I looked at an article this morning from back then and Attanasio labeled it “long term”. I couldn’t find out where it was rumored to be 2023…I recall it being said, I just couldn’t find the source of it.
  14. It was assumed that his contract ended after 2023. However, teams are under no obligation to announce extension or terms of FO people. For all we know they already did an extension or are simply planning to do one this offseason while upgrading his title. And really…I think the assumption might have been wrong. Why would the Brewers having Stearn’s and Arnold have expiring contracts after the same season. That would be pretty dumb. Arnold has always been groomed to take over for Stearns, even Attanasio was pretty clear about that.
  15. Being good defensively is dime a dozen. It’s a matter of how much offense you provide with that. Adames, provides like a garage offense. Not a bad mix, but he is set for $13mil next year.
  16. Why would Woodruff take that? The guy could dang near take the arby number, miss all of 2024, and still make $10mil+ in 2025.
  17. Your WAR is going to get inflated when you play almost every day and you have good defense. You play Brice Turang every day and he would have over 2 WAR. If you want to play a guy 150 games, he will rack up some WAR value. A lot of guys could pop off for 2+ WAR purely on defense. The difference is, if they suck with the bat they won’t play.
  18. Adames - He will be back because he doesn’t have trade value. If he has a great first half he can always get flipped. Woodruff - Also likely to be back, in my opinion. Injury riddled year and ended the year injured. Can’t imagine the trade value is great. But maybe we can get a good offer. Burnes- Trade him or don’t…idk. I just expect a bunch of whining when the return is nowhere near what some are expecting.
  19. Well we have the same owner that brought them both in. Our current GM was Stearns’ sidekick for almost a decade…so Arnold could probably pass off as Stearns at Christmas time he could be so similar. The Brewers shouldn’t fall off a cliff. The real hurt is losing two of the best starters in the game. We have quite a pile of hitters ready to hit the MLB roster though, so that could be a nice change.
  20. So do I, them leaving doesn't mean you go back to that.
  21. Misiorowski and Rodriguez also quite likely to make an MLB appearance next year if things go decently for them. Quero also a likely candidate to debut next year. We will probably see 6/10 Top 10 prospects next year.
  22. Even if he hit his ceiling with the bat, his atrocious defense would ruin it. He is, at his best, a Chris Carter.
  23. Has anyone ever considered that Craig Counsell may not even like Stearns?
  24. After the last two days, I really don’t care if he leaves. It was a great ride Stearns/Counsell. However, it equated to zero postseason success. Year after year of flops. Time to try and see if something else can make it happen.
