The Green Bay Packers completed a huge upset against the Dallas Cowboys in Wild Card weekend, and as quarterback Jordan Love walked off the field he is finally getting the hype he deserves as one of the top quarterbacks in the NFL.
Love has come a long way in his first season going from games in where head coach Matt Lafleur would be ripping him in the post game press conference, to having the coach profusely praise him after games. This has been one of the greatest seasons for a quarterback in terms of growth throughout the year. The Packers now have their third amazing quarterback in a row which is just insanity.
Green Bay Packers’ Jordan Love Is Playing Better Than Everyone
Since week 10 Love has thrown for 21 touchdowns and just 1 interception having by far the best ratio in that stat category in the league by a mile. During that stretch the Packers have gone 7-2 including their victory against Dallas. Love has clearly taken a huge step in the middle of this year to prove himself as one of the best at the position in the NFL.
He has not only been getting praise form his own head coach but from other player in the league as well including San Francisco 49ers superstar Nick Bosa. The packers are about to face the 49ers in the divisional round and Bosa gave some his opinions on the first time starter for the Packers saying that he is doing better than Aaron Rodgers did last year with the team.
Nick Bosa Praises Jordan Love
Nick Bosa gave some praise to the up and coming quarterback when comparing him to Aaron Rodgers. It is clear that the Packers offense has been clicking on a different level than last year when Rodgers was at the helm. Bosa made the comparison to Rodgers and how it wont be easy defending the Packers young offense. He was quoted saying:
“Aaron Rodgers is a Hall of Famer and unbelievable but he kind of went outside of the realm of coaching,” said Bosa. “Sometimes, it’s good when you have a guy who does what he’s coached to do,”
He added that Love does “exactly what he’s coached to do,”
Lafleur is clearly a great coach especially on the offensive side of the ball and when you have a quarterback doing exactly what he is coached to do this the production that comes with it. 21 touchdowns to just 1 interception is obviously what Love is being coached to do, but doing it with composure and confidence is something else.
Green Bay Packers Divisional Matchup
Now that Love has completed his first playoff victory in his first season as a starter in the NFL, many will think this season was a win no matter what happens in the divisional round. The Packers are a heavy underdog against the Dominant 49ers and it would be expected for them to lose this game. Love and the Packers however are not thinking about that all as they are going into this game to win.
Love has proven that he has been better than 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy and Love will need ot have one of the best games of his short career if they want to have a chance at making the NFC championship. If they can pull of this miracle, they just may be the favorites to actually get to the Super Bowl. Green Bay would have a great shot to beat either the Lions or Buccaneers, so if they can pull of this miracle, we may just see Jordan Love in the Super Bowl in his first season as a starter.
