Jordan Love talked about being traded from the Packers
The Green Bay Packers offense is a hot mess in 2022. The unit can’t seem to play a complete game. There are moments quarterback Aaron Rodgers looks like his old self. Then there are plays where Green Bay should put in Jordan Love to see if he’s the Packers future or should request a trade. Love has been with the Packers since the team took him in the first round of the 2020 draft.
Love had started one game since when Rodgers was out with COVID-19 before the Kansas City Cheifs contest last season. He’s been behind Rodgers on the depth chart for three years now. Rodgers is under contract with the Packers until the 2025 season. Love’s fifth-year option would be for the 2024 season. If Rodgers stays with the Packers as a starter, Jordan Love might not get a chance to be the Packers’ starter before he goes to a new team.
ESPN reporter Rob Demovsky spoke with the QB this week. He asked Jordan Love about his Packers future and if he might never play as the starter. Love answered honestly:
“It’s a possibility,” he said.
Demovsky asked Love if he was open to asking for a trade. Love gave a vague response:
“We’ll see,” he said again. “I would obviously be in the fourth year of my contract, and it would be the team’s possibility of picking up my fifth year. It’s really on them to see what kind of moves they want to make, what they want to do with the future.
Jordan Love should get starts if the Packers continue to lose
The Packers are 4-7 heading into their “mini-bye” before they play the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 12. They’re still very much in contention for a playoff spot in a weak NFC Conference. However, if the Packers continue to disappoint, they should evaluate other options at quarterback.
Love should get some starts if the Packers are eliminated from the playoffs. It’s essential to find out what the Packers have in Love. The Packers can dress up Jordan Love and get a high price for him in the trade market. Or, they could find they can use him to manage the good pieces they have on offense and prepare for either Rodgers’ retirement or trade the back-to-back MVP.

The Packers are not in the playoff race. The season is done. Time to start Love.
Go Chargers
Yep bench Rodgers @ 4-7 time to start Love. See what he’s got. At the end of the season he would have six games under his belt. Then Packers would have a good idea of what they have going into next season.
Do not start Love.
Finish season like a G.
Allow 2 rookie recievers to learn by fire and get more game spees reps for next season.
Lazzard, Doubs and Watson can be the most dangerous core in NFL next year and most likely will be highly talked about trio in pre season next year. 6k yard offense!
Let them understand when to break off routes and sit in soft spots of D. Learn to verbally communicate @ a higher level on and off field. Add checks @ line of scrimmage for them to identify D and where QB1 likes to go.
Of course D doesn’t look as opportunistic when offense can’t control ball like we are used to seeing.
Once the Pack is mathematically eliminated all pressure to prefrom will be lifted. Team will start having fun again playing spoiler and win out.
Starting love would ruin any shred of confidence he’s built. Very shakey in pre season to put it nicely. You heard the man say himself he isn’t an NFL starter and could end up not starting for a couple more years if ever. Look at Marcus Mariota, spent the first half of his career crapping the bed because he was thrown into the warzone too soon. Love is a bad backup untested, unproven, def not a starter.
You have to let guys work threw their slumps. It’s way more than just one player at one position that’s going to turn things around for the Packers. 12 is competitive, this slump will have him in film and gym. Back with a vengeance, and an healthy throwing hand God willing. Expect coaching changes exp the offencive coordinator. And at least we have good draft picks to look forward to next year. Lots of young talent with the Packers too.
Go Pack Go!!
