Skip to 22:15 to get right to the Love segment. Steven Ruiz from The Ringer was in Green Bay working on a Jordan Love feature and spoke to a lot of the coaches and players. Really good discussion with some insight into 10. Can't recommend it enough.

The running theme about Packer fans for years now is how spoiled we've been when it comes to hof qbs. I don't really buy it, mainly because spoiled involves some degree of taking it for granted. What I will say, though, is that we have definitely been graced often with a catbird seat view and proximity to paper champs in July and August. Viking fans have been adorable many times over the years. Bears fans have adorned us with a few kickstart thrills as well. This year, the Lions are the anointed ones.
But this Jets sideshow has the makings of one for the ages. At this point, I'm not even rooting against them. I think AR is juiced to play well. They have a good roster. But even moreso than Queens fans, if anybody is capable of willing disappointment on their franchise, it's Jet fans like Greenie and Eisen. No one can say this will 100% be the case. But if it does crash and burn, it ranks up there with anything we've enjoyed inside the NFC North in quite some time.

Awesome listen. Thanks for posting. Loved the criticism of Joe Barry too.

This implies there are people who don't criticize Joe Barry.

QB Jordan Love would be a really fun 1st round pick for the Packers in 2020.

The last post in the replies is the best.
Clip of Fields hitting a lineman in the back of the head with a pass. Seems to be gone now tho.
This season..... Barring injury... He's going to be no worse than the 15th. Best quarterback in the league.
They are gonna run the bejesus out of this concept in short yardage situations.

Watson/Musg on the same side of the formation is too much speed. Defenses are gonna give a cushion.
And when the defense starts playing this tighter,,,,, buddy if you thought 12 threw it deep too… pic.twitter.com/eyJPUquDPp
They can say wonderful things and so can we, but it was still preseason with vanilla defenses and mostly second-line or below players. I just hope Love can keep it up with faster, quicker players running exotic schemes. I am quietly hopeful, but want to keep it real, too. 
I think most observers were impressed with Love's composure. I don't think anybody was ever concerned about his ability. He's going to go through some trial and error but his teammates love him and team morale appears better than ever. I think the performance of Rodgers and the team last season lowers the bar and takes a lot of pressure off of him. A lot of things are trending his way.
From what I saw I thought his decision making looked good. He seemed to go through his progressions and pick the right targets. He also seemed very well composed. Never saw him get anxious. He seemed very calm and collected.
The only negative that I can think of is that he didn’t always set his feet before throwing. Hopefully that doesn’t become a habit. I think it can hurt his accuracy.
Because Favre and Rodgers were meticulous about setting their feet.
Rodgers after 2011 was the same. Didn't always set his feet. I wish Love would get his fundamentals down before he started mimicking AR's bad habits.

I think this is key. Seems like his teammates (especially the younger ones) want him to succeed and they want to play for him…..compare that to last year when players were called out or ignored by the Almighty AR if they dared make a mistake or drop a pass.
Love and his WRs this preseason remind me of AR with Jordy, Gerg, Driver and Jones several years ago.
This team is going to play loose energetic ball this season and it’s going to be fun to watch. Hopefully the growing pains won’t last too long and they’ll be a solid team by the end of the season, regardless if they make the playoffs or not. I’ll be more than happy if they can pull off a season like the Lions had last year.

Pressure? Yes, there will be pressure, but the pressure should be about performing well for himself and his teammates and winning games. It should not be about the man he’s replacing.
“It’s only as big as you make it in your mind,” Rodgers told Sports Illustrated’s Packer Central on Thursday. “A lot of that stuff is just fodder for articles and it never really feels that way inside the facility. It really doesn’t.
“You feel the enormity of how the expectations are in Titletown, but it never feels like this incredible weight. Especially on a young team. Not a lot of those guys played with me for a lot of years. It’s a really young team. So, there’s not like this deep-seated group of four or five guys that were with me for so long. That’s the nature of the NFL. There’s so much turnover. So, it’s never going to feel like this overwhelming sense of, ‘How do I fill this guy’s shoes? What do I have to do?’ I promise you, I know he feels the same way... continue

Pretty good article and some nice words from Rodgers. Cool to read!
This is a really good, detailed article about Jordan Love and what he's improved on during his time with the Packers.

AR up to 2011 was a living textbook for QB mechanics. Once he hit his groove and he started riffing more on the play calls, he started doing a lot more of the off-platform stuff and throwing from odd angles.
