Is Jordan Love Worth An Elite QB Contract Extension? | 7/23/24

Dan Patrick discusses the Green Bay Packers not yet coming to an agreement on a contract extension with quarterback Jordan Love

[@Biz613]

Jalen Hurts had 1 great year. The entire year. Went to the Super Bowl. Got paid. And took a step back. This kid played 8 great games. Proceed with caution. ⚠️

Lol at Patrick really going in on Rodgers missing mini camp. It was only a big deal because people like him made it a big deal. It was 2 days he missed after having been around all prior to. And is it still a big deal? Nope because he reported along with everyone else for camp. See how much of a waste of time reporting on it was when the season actually starts.

[@mckeoncrawford9262]

The more difficult question GB has to answer is, what will we do if we don't lock in Love? Their season would be a waste without the time to adjust or people present to fill in. Pay the man and get on with your season.

[@trouty42]

@@mckeoncrawford9262 He's still under contract for this season and then Green Bay can use the franchise tag on him for at least 2 seasons and maybe 3?

We will find out . He was one play from the Superbowl 💚

[@wfvesely]

Sometimes I think these media types on TV don't even watch the games. How many times have I seen someone seem to be on the way to being a great player only to regress and turn into a dud. as a Patriots fan I remember when Drew Bledsoe was everybody's favorite quarterback until he wasn't. He was anointed early and once the league figured out his weaknesses he had no success at all.

[@1_underthesun]

They do it for views. Any student of the game who's watched anything from Kirk Benkert's breakdown of Love's QB play, QB School's breakdown of his play, or even Kurt Warner's "progression of Jordan Love" videos already know he's a star. There a dozen things he does every single play that other QB's either can't do or don't do until they've had much more experience. These things are all replicable. If you have any doubt, just watch any of those videos (or video breakdown from any other former QB) and you won't have any doubts whatsoever. So since it's that easy to know these days, the only reason these talking heads do the "will he/won't he" dance is to get views. That simple.

[@SHIKEBZAD911]

I think the subject of this video was misleading, you kind of drifted away from the topic and talking about who is getting how much money and about distractions. I’ll try to help you with the answer. I think Jordan Love has proved enough last season that he is a new era QB, specially with the away games. He has adjusted well to different conditions, the communication within plays with the team/coach and seems like he is imposing his presence, doing an amazing job in showcasing the knowledge he gained by sitting behind Aaron Rodgers. And, not just that his core work ethic is strong, a hard working individual, that knows his game, and he is improving on daily basis. It is always going to be a gamble but looking at so many positives, he deserves a contract that will eventually help him feel that financial relief and give more confidence by rewarding his abilities. I would say not giving him a contract is a distraction in itself. Packers need to pay them asap. GO PACK GO!!!

[@chirocket4791]

Nowadays a QB doesn't have to be even close to elite to get the bag.

[@carterware9389]

To me this just shows having your future franchise quarterback sitting on the bench for multiple seasons isn’t this cheat code to successful team building/development that a lot of people seem to think. From an organizational standpoint all you’re doing is limiting your sample size before having to make a quarter billion dollar decision

[@williamhermann6635]

Nonsense. The important part is to develop a franchise qb. Doesnt matter how long it takes or how much it costs. The end result is all that matters. He's gonna get paid and hes gonna ball out. Everythings gonna be fine.

[@RC-ro4gq]

you're so wrong it's a joke

[@mrcoolguy2530]

I completely agree. People think that studying and “learning” from so-called vets will get you ready, but there’s never a substitute for live game reps. The good thing is that Love does look pretty good. Let’s see how year two goes when there’s a scouting report out on him.

[@williamhermann6635]

@@mrcoolguy2530 What youre glossing over is that throwing guys in too early just to get annihalated by the crazy NFL pass rushers is often times detrimental to their development. Rarely do you see guys who sit for a year or 2 bust. But you see guys who are named starter way too early that fail miserably pretty regularly.

[@Smiley869]

You are correct. They waited 4 years to play their QB when they should have drafted another weapon for Rodgers and he’d still be a packer right now. Now they’re forced to sign a massive contract to a player with a .500 record basically.

[@imagineimagining1219]

@@ronelltoliver1761it’s not even bc of the playoffs, it’s bc of how he played in the entire second half of the season. He was at around 22 TDs and 2 picks to end the year. Everyone would be saying the same thing even if they lost to the cowboys, it was just one more to add onto his amount of great games

[@ninjalbatross]

Purdys still on his rookie contract so this is a completely irrelevant point.

[@tiggerwoods100]

Everyone over looks how the NFL works. Last season defenses had very little film on Green Bay’s new offense. They had very little film on Love himself. Love played good but a lot of that was Matt’s offensive scheme. How many receivers were so wide open that Love could under throw the ball by ten yards and still get a completion for a touchdown. This season every defense is going to be studying the film of how the 49’ers shut Green Bay’s offense down in the second half. Love shouldn’t get paid until he proves himself this season. Love said himself that he doesn’t need to be Superman in this offense. So at least he doesn’t have to big a head.

[@zackdreamcast]

Love didn’t have enough time to show his skill set. That’s a double edged sword and totally caused by the packers with the Rodgers situation and drafting love early and not playing him

[@NomadicNorthwoods]

Half a season he was good. So what? For big money they've gotta start making them prove it further, much further.

[@GSmoove1812]

As a Packer fan, I am not eager to throw the bag at a guy who played great for 1/2 the season. I hoped we could have another season or two where we aren’t paying our QB a big chunk of the salary cap, you know, so we can put weapons around him and retain other young guys. But…it seems the Pack is in a pay up situation so hopefully it all works out.

[@yangthao1795]

Love will be top 5 qb by end of the year. You either have it (Love)or you dont (Dak), its not that hard to see.

[@joeo4496]

People need to stop saying Love isn't worth $55 million a year: the market determines your worth and right now that is the QB market. And I can give a one word answer as to why: scarcity...........There are 32 teams: there aren't that many franchise QB's. If you don't have one, you are desperately trying to find one and if you do have one, you pay them. And for the half of the league that doesn't have one, they would gladly trade places with Green Bay and pay Love that money.

[@JaySGoodman]

Just one year of above average play....and barely made the playoffs only because they have the bears in their division? I hope they are dumb enough to pay him

Gutey really messed up in 2022 not trading Rodgers to the Broncos. Would have gotten a better haul in return and would have gotten an extra year to evaluate and progress Jordan Love in actual game experience. I think Love is going to be great, but they screwed the pooch having to make this call on paying him after 1 promising season.

[@skitown11]

Dak was the #3 rated qb in 2023. There's just something about him that tells me he doesn't have the killer instinct during the playoffs. Jerry Jones is poisonous, I bet that doesn't help. Regardless, If you pay Dak 50/year, will it make a difference? 49ers are gonna pay Purdy top dollar in 2025, if they don't win the big one this year, it will all be a lost cause. Personally, I don't think the Cowboys are very good. Same thing for Dak, but the Cowboys can't hold the 49ers jocks.

[@surfyogi1]

NFL owners don’t buy championships- they buy hope. Only one team wins at the end of the day. Yet there are 31 over priced quarterbacks who end the season with a big check and hope unfulfilled. Only 1 quarterback deserves top money. Mahomes. The rest just give the owners hope

Love played as well as any QB for the last 8 games. The first 8 games was getting out all the kinks… he was a new starter surrounded by rookies. It takes time to build the timing and trust. It’s not a knock on his ability because his first 8 games in the NFL surrounded by rookies wasn’t perfect.
