The Green Bay Packers are in the midst of a franchise-altering off-season. The Jordan Love era is officially underway in Green Bay. With that, new QB-WR duos will be established. The duo with the most eyes on it will be Christian Watson and Jordan Love., and from the looks of it, they are starting out OTAs strong.

Jordan Love hits Christian Watson on a deep corner route and it is laid in perfectly. Fans on twitter reacted in extremely positive ways. One fan said “perfect,” another one said “big deal.”
After Tuesday’s OTA practice, head coach Matt LaFleur was asked about Love potentially needing to tighten up some of his throws. But that question launched LaFleur into a bit more detailed assessment of how he’s seen Love make progress throughout OTAs:
”I’ve seen some pretty good throws throughout the course of my career in this league, namely a guy like Peyton Manning. He was pretty good and his ball wasn’t always the tightest but he did a great job,” LaFleur said in his press conference. “It’s about just being accurate. Throwing on time. Making the right decisions. Putting the ball in the right spot. And so, I’ve been encouraged — especially, I would say over the course of this last week, one of the things that we’ve kind of talked about in that room is just how important — it’s really the process of playing quarterback.
“I’m less concerned about the end result right now. But I do believe that if the process is correct, he is going to be more consistent. So, within that, it’s just the footwork, the clean mechanics, keeping a base in the pocket, being able to throw at any point in time. And I think just the rhythm and the timing, that’s something we’ve really stressed. I think he’s done a good job in particular this week of making some really significant strides.”
