Can we split this thread off to where the season starts and rename it.  The first couple pages is just puns (yes, the irony) and then a lot of camp and preseason discussion.

We can call the spinoff "Love Notes" and put all of our discussion on his regular season performance, highlights, links to analysis, etc. in that bin.  Preseason posts start pg17, regular season pg21 if that is a good point to break off.

I get what the guy is trying to do, see if ONE play skews the ranking. People do it the other way too removing negative plays to see if one negative play vaults their guy up the rankings.

It's not a bad test to understand the stats/formula being used but the numbers are the numbers. Positive/Negative it all counts.

I want Love to get at least 3 Passing TDs and 0 INTs again this weekend.

  1. Is an oopsie
  2. Is a trend
  3. Is a......

HE DID WHAAAAT?!?!

It’s not completely inappropriate to remove outliers and see the effects.  But you should be consistent with it.  Comparing altered data to unaltered data doesn’t show anything (good or bad).  It’s just bad math.

What a laughable take on Love. Jesus. Remove all the good stuff and he sucks.

Laughable.

You're misunderstanding.....even removing like 4 or 5 plays he's still in 7th place.

That's what's so amazing 🤩

Tua is just insane. BUT! They have played against one of the worst defenses then Bill Belichick, who is probably top 10.

We will really get a better feel of this after 4-6 weeks.

I sure like the start Love has though.

Jordan Love faced a good defense today. The running game was, at best, pedestrian.

He had a round 7, year 2 LT making his first ever start (Walker actually pass blocked very well).

At Left Guard, a marginal roster spot guy was replacing an All-Pro.

He was without the team's biggest offensive threat at RB, who was replaced by an inadequate backup.

He was also without his deep threat at WR.

And he was throwing to a rookie TE and two rookie WRs (one a 5th rounder) as well as a 4th rounder who is in just his second year.

I don't know how anyone watching today's game could be anything but impressed by Jordan Love's performance in his 4th-ever start.

Every game there are two three throws that he misses really bad on. Usually they are the ones to Musgrave. Hopefully that is correctable and he can get that down because when he does, we are in for another great ride with a great QB.
