The Green Bay Packers are two days away from their season opener against the Chicago Bears. Coming into 2023, the Packers have a new quarterback in Jordan Love. He will be making his first start under center on Sunday.
Everyone knows about Love sitting behind the former Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, but he is no longer with the organization as he was traded to the Jets during the offseason. Rodgers took some known wide receivers with him in Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb.
Now, the Green Bay Packers are the youngest team in the NFL, mostly on the offensive side of the ball. With Jordan Love as the new signal caller, things will look different in the passing game with young receivers such as Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, Samori Toure, Jayden Reed, Malik Heath, and DonTayvion Wicks.
Jordan Love is a Future Hall of Famer for the Green Bay Packers
According to NFC North Reporter Carmen Vitali, the Packers now have a Hall of Fame quarterback in Jordan Love. She recently spoke about the new signal caller on Fox Sports Podcast:

Packers Teammates and Coaches Believe in Jordan Love
Love does have three years as a Packers backup, so he has not seen much action on the field. However, he has had time to learn from his former teammate Aaron Rodgers. Some believe that Jordan Love is capable of success or “shocking” some people, including teammates like AJ Dillon, among others, and his offensive coordinator.
His first test as the Green Bay Packers quarterback will be against the Chicago Bears on the road. Fans would love to start the season off with a win over their most hated divisional rival.
Packers Offense to Start the Season
Jordan Love did play in the preseason for the Green Bay Packers. He completed 21-33 passes for 183 yards and three touchdowns. He rushed for 33 yards on just four carries. True enough, it does not equal out to the teams that he will face during the regular season, but he got a taste of live action. Only this time, wins and losses will count on the overall record.
The offense still has running backs Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon in the running game. Green Bay will have its ups and downs, but if Jordan Love has confidence in himself and more encouragement from his teammates like he has been getting, we never know how far this young team can go with the young receivers that will be alongside him this season.
Time will tell if the media and experts were right in their predictions on the new starting quarterback for the Green Bay Packers, Jordan Love, being a Hall of Famer.
