Jordan Love might just be a decent player!

Can we trust the Lions?

Love looked very good. The rest of this season and next will tell what sort of player you have.

 

The Lions, well I think we can forgive this, teams have lulls during the season and off a short break is always hard for both teams. Goff still struggles at times with full on pressure and the packers bought it all game long.

They couldn’t convert any fourth downs and that came back to bite them bad.

Good points Gorg (re Lions)

As for the Packers ... coming off 2 QB's with such talent (over a 30 year stretch) it's the smart move to not get your hopes up 

Up until today Love has been hard to judge ... at times both good and not so good (often within the same games)

But today gives a bit of hope although the playoffs is a stretch

We're a QB based organisation so there's a lot on Jordan's shoulders

As for tomorrow, I've a feeling the J E T.S will take it  right up to Miami

Love is literally on a hiding to nothing, if he pretty much doesn’t become the greatest QB ever then he wasn’t worth letting Rodgers go. I truly feel for the kid, Smith and Goff are proving that QB’s can get better in the right location/scheme from time to time.

The most impressive thing with Love has been his ability to put the ball in the exact right spot for the WR, not just the right area, but the right spot.

Yeah and how about Stafford ... one year out of Detroit and he wins big!  He was good at the Lions but needed a new environment

Stafford was always good, but never had multiple good parts all at once at Detroit. 
For me, like Matt Ryan and Andrew Luck. Very good QB’s but never quite got the full arsenal at once, although Ryan should have won a SB.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
