I was impressed with Love's play last night. I wasn't expecting much when Rodgers left the game in the 4th quarter. Love was accurate. He demonstrated control of the offense. His arm strength was impressive.

He looked light years ahead of when we last saw him play. Packers may have been right all along about their future QB.

They have a track record

Of getting the QB position right. Farve->Rodgers->Love? Too early to tell but they should let Love play out the remaining games to evaluate.

Don't go crazy

By the time that Love got in there, Green Bay was down 14 and Philly was able to score at will. 63 of the yards were on 1 pass to Watson.

Definitely worth keeping an eye on

When his contract is up after next season.

Fair enough Mike. Probably shouldn't overreact to limited play. That being said, he was accurate and throwing lasers. His arm was impressive. Also, he was in a hostile environment, behind by 14 when he entered the game. Compared to what I recall when I last saw him, he seemed much more composed and frankly just better.

If they rush Rodgers back to play the Bears this week

Yes, garbage time. He did throw the ball well and certainly looks the part, but this is hardly a qb controversy. He'll probably get a game or two while Rodgers heals up. He's under contract for another year.

Rodgers has 99M cap hit if he’s cut in the off-season. Anyone know how to read what the hit is if he’s traded?

I am not an Aaron Rogers fan

But everyone loves the backup until he is a starter.
Outside of NFC East teams the Packers and their fans might be the one I root against the most so any controversy is a good.
If Rodgers plays poorly in Chicago next week the fans will be calling for Love.

Love couldnt

Beat out Tim Boyle for Rodgers backup after being a first round pick.

Well that's kind of the point... he was far different in every way from when we last saw him play. Much more composed, much more accurate, much more in command, very strong arm... him not being able to beat out Boyle a couple of years ago is not relevant to the conversation we are having. Did you watch him play last night?
