Wow, great video breaking it down.
Its real easy to see young Rodgers or Mahomes in his play. There are issues that are going to need work, but the upside is plainly obvious. He finds consistency and that's and NFL MVP caliber passer.
I havn't had a problem so much with Love "the prospect" it's simply the decision to do so when we need a receiver more, also, those things that Love needs to improve upon are mostly the reasons QB's flop at this level, most college QB's that are draftable have the physical ability to be good, it's the mental and instinctual stuff that holds them back, right?
I would have waited 2 more years, MLF schemes will lengthen Rodgers career, or it should give him the full 3 to 4 seasons left on his contract anyway, so I just have trouble with rushing to get his replacement, unless either AR declines a lot or we trade him in two years, it's doubtful any QB we bring in will beat him out in this time frame.
another point, the shorter the throw, the more off target Love was (I've seen this in other videos as well) MLF's schemes are short passing, so that concerns me, obviously Love is accurate deep, but we are transitioning to more short stuff.
imo the short stuff is harder, requires more accuracy and ball placement, timing, so it might be a challange.
Hey it's a done deal now, all we can do is hope it pans out.
