Cowherd on Jordan Love

About halfway through after talking about Tua. Love's not going to cut it.

I've never heard Cowherd "miss" on a take before!

So basically his argument is that love is a bust because his completion percentage in the few games he’s played is sub 60. Also he’s a bust because he’s not Burrow or Herbert yet….

In the words of the great Les Grossman “A nutless monkey could do your job!”

Certainly Jordan has not proven that he is worthy of his first round pick, but he has also not had opportunities that most first round QB's get. He has played in what would be equivalent to 1.5 games, i find it hard to believe he is bust based on those 2 games. He certainly has a lot to prove, but needs to get more reps which he has not gotten.

Love isn't a bust. He got paid $12 million.

There was a time that he believed Jordan Love would have a better career than Joe Burrow...

Love should be given 2 full seasons to start before we can make any decision about his NFL career / bust status.

It’s more likely he’ll only get one.

Love didn’t break out until his third year in college. Obviously, the NFL is different but let’s be patient. I actually rewatched the Lions game and he did a good job. He made a great touch pass that the tight end dropped in the end zone. He completed passes on third and fourth down to move the chains. They scored 17 points in the second half when he played. The two picks came at the end when one was tipped and the other was him trying to make a play with a d- lineman in his face with less than a minute left. He’s got work to do but I think he’ll only get better

Agreed Love is pretty good, give him time

You have realize everything that Colin says is through the microphone of demographics. The bigger the stage the more spot light. He is all about large cities and the major markets all to sell more advertising and drive revenues. Nothing wrong with that but it doesn’t float my boat. So if you are in a small market don’t expect much attention or time.

Aaron Rodgers wasn't any better in his first regular season action when he was the backup coming in relief of Favre.

cbingham · Post by **cbingham** » January 27th, 2022, 7:46 am

I suspect the comment is based on the fact that the relative production has not driven commensurate value with other players that the Pack could have selected at the same point. That's as much a judgement on the Pack selecting the wrong type of player when they had bigger needs that it does on love. That being said, we've seen a history of QBs who looked like All-Pros in relief of Brady and Favre when given the chance. Jordan Love certainly has yet to seize the opportunities in Pre- and Regular season games. That is a huge miss in a league of limited opportunities. Hope he changes course in next opportunities.

If Trevor Lawrence and Zach Wilson are getting 2 seasons… Love should be given the same treatment IMO.

brownjeans · Post by **brownjeans** » January 27th, 2022, 10:26 am

Steve Young's completion percentage was sub 60% for the first four years of his career. He started two seasons in Tampa, then was Montana's backup for four seasons.
He didn't look like he was going to amount to anything until his fifth year.

Too lazy to look it up myself, but I would be interested in a side by side comparison.

Aaron Rodgers
2005: 3 games. 9/16 (56%) 0 td 1 int
2006: 2 games. 6/15 (40%) 0/0
2007: 2 games 20/28 (71.4%) 1/0
2008: 16 games 341/536 (63.6%) 28/13

So for his first ~60 throws he was 58%
Exactly the same as Love.

I think the biggest reason why there are people doubting Love becoming the starter is that Green Bay is wanting a quarterback that can keep them at 10+ wins per year. The other QBs that were drafted these last few years play on really bad teams and aren’t expected to win right away, so they are given an extended opportunity knowing that they might still lose a lot. In GB, Love would be expected to win right away, which I think he would do good but perhaps not lead the team to 10+ wins. I really hope teams see how good he can be and let him play so he can get live reps in a meaningful game.

Speaking of JLove, looks like o'l Rodgers might be heading to the Broncos? https://www.yahoo.com/news/aaron-rodger ... 36895.html

Reports say they are hiring the Packers offensive coordinator as the new coach.

When you see/hear trade talk involving Rodgers? The majority of it includes a QB going back to Green Bay. Listen to the stuff yourself and come to your own conclusion. Sure it's the media, but those are also people who are much more neutral that we are on this board concerning Love.

Apparently, NFL writers don't think Love is ready to start next season.

I only really care if the Green Bay coaching staff believes Love is ready to start. If history is any real indication, Green Bay doesn't have a problem going slow with QBs.

In a way, Green Bay has to either give Love the opportunity to start or use his as trade bait. But they haven't used him enough yet to be real bait. And if Rodgers is gone, that can free up a ton of cap space to bring in some quality help on both sides of the ball. As it is now, Rodgers eats up too much of the cap to bring in any impactful help.

Was thinking the same things word for word.

I’ve never given half a rat’s (I can't express myself without swearing) what Cowherd thinks, and I’m not going to start caring now.

Jordan Love, is as talented as they come and the coaches believe in him. Give it some time. Side note, interesting article on the subject:

They could still win ten games per year, but it will be because they use the Rodgers savings to get better players to surround Love. If Love plays well, they could be better than they are with Rodgers. Love doesn't even have to be as great, just good.

Hot take: Jordan Love is better at his job than Colin Cowherd is at his.
