Chris Simms' 2024 Top 40 QB Countdown: No. 13 Jordan Love | Chris Simms Unbuttoned | NFL on NBC

[@tjayd1225]

The biggest thing Love showed last year is without all star talent around him he could elevate the guys around him. The number 1 trait you want from a franchise qb

[@ShadEatz]

Facts!!!

[@LandlordTray]

Frfr!!

[@robczypinski1725]

The first half of the season was up and down. But when Love essentially willed the win against New Orleans, that’s when I knew he had the heart, grit and leadership to be a franchise QB1. Once everyone started executing their role the second half of the season and LaFleur was comfortable opening up the playbook, Love was really able to elevate his play and those around him. Should have been in the NFC Championship. Can’t wait to see what they can do this season!

[@sputnikalgrim]

You have to remember he had rookie WRs and TEs as well. Some of those early struggles weren’t just him.

[@Laabby17]

No way Lawrence & Cousins are better than Love 😂.

[@sputnikalgrim]

This! I’m not saying 10ve is top 5 but you can’t put some of these guys above him that they’re gonna

[@tonyjordan6664]

13!? The dude played as arguably the best QB for 8 straight weeks and he’s 13? That’s disrespectful Simms 💀

[@baseballsoffury642]

Let’s relax he played only a good half of the season

[@ggbchronicles7355]

Sims list will never be fully accurate

[@joshbeezley4158]

@@baseballsoffury642 He only had a rough 5 game stretch early. From weeks 9 on to the divisional round, he led the leauge in TD passes, yards and tied for the most wins. That's 12 weeks. That's hardly "half the season."

[@joelmanzo5039]

@tonyjordan6664 Playing 8 great games make you a top 10 QB? lol, talk about pre mature scouting.

[@simonevans5562]

I'm a diehard packers fan. I agree with Sims. Jordan Love is fearless and and can make every throw off talent. But Love really needs to clean up his mechanics on short/intermediate throws. Even during his elite stretch, he was making screen passes and 3 yard outs, and quick slants look way more difficult than falling off his back foot and hitting some dude 30 yards down the field in tight coverage. It seems like every quick throw is just not completely accurate and he needs to clean that up

[@sputnikalgrim]

It’s ok, keep sleeping on Green Bay.

[@michaelgray8318]

Love will be in the MVP discussion this year and that’s a FACT

[@CUTS_cards]

There is NO WAY there are 12 QBs better then Jordan Love based off last 10 games last year. 😂

[@nathanpitek3177]

So criminally low that this makes me physically fucking ill

[@Dennis450D]

Hilariously low. Mostly curious now how he can put Trevor Lawrence 2 spots above him

[@chedbeckford8067]

Chris Simms isnt taking 12 QBs ahead of Jordan Love. He knows this.

[@williamhermann6635]

13 is laughable. Never thought Id say this, but Mike Tannenbaum is right. Mahomes is the only player in football Id take over Love right now.

[@kennytoce5946]

😂😂

[@mryujivang2347]

J Love is a superstar now and u rank him 13???? Lol

[@papapeaches0149]

I have a ton of respect for Chris’ opinion and I watch this show every year…but I literally can’t fathom Trevor over Love. Love has ALREADY played at a higher level than Trevor ever has. And it’s not even particularly close. Love should be 11.

[@Laabby17]

I said the same thing 11 would have been solid.

[@X_Online801]

0:57 That's exactly right. I have no idea what MLF thinking giving him the basic menu of cool concepts that didn't really stress the defense. Love had a couple of stinky games (Raiders and Broncos 🥴) to start the year, but he was mostly fine contrary to popular belief.

[@otis3015]

13th feels like a slap in the face

[@JesusGarcia-ye1bu]

I see Jordan as top 3 QBs this coming season. GO PACK GO!

[@JohnStockton7459]

I can think of maybe 2 or 3 QBs better than J Love, 13?!? Really 😂😂

@@isaiahmcconnell how is cj better? prove it.. the man played with rookies and 2nd year dudes on offense.. prove cj better...love played better in the playoffs also

[@isaiahmcconnell]

@@WAKEMUP_12 Cj is just a better qb I watch the games.But since you wanna play this game fine. Cj led his team just as far with less growing pains despite taking over a 3-13 team having a rookie defensive coach(who is really good) a nonexistent running game one reliable receiver and a average oline.While love had a team one game away from the playoffs the year before he played,with one of the best offensive minds in the game as his hc and one of the best offensive lines.and with all those advantages cj still had a better season by any numbers Cj is just better.

[@knn4247]

​@@isaiahmcconnellYou had in the first half but you changed things to fit your narrative. First of all, the Packers' O-line was one of the worst in the first half and the run block is still terrible to this day. Secondly, the Packers did not have a great run game either. Aaron Jones only had 6 good games out of the 13 he played and AJ Dillon, midway through the season was put on the trade block because he kept tripping on himself. JLove had the same amount of rushing TDs as Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon combined last season lol. As for the receiving options, CJ easily had a better time. Christian Watson was injured for most of the season and the rest of the receiving core was solid but are nowhere near the same threat as Tank Dell and Nico Collins. Also, in 2022, everyone was saying that the Packers were getting carried by ARod and Lafleur was probably going to get fired the next season. Now all of a sudden he's one of the best offensive coaches in the league. Not saying that you're entirely wrong, but when it comes to CJ or Jordan, it's up to personal preference. I'd argue that they're about the same level.

[@billybobby5247]

​@isaiahmcconnell imagine saying love inherited a better team when aaron freaking rodgers couldn't get them to the playoffs... I still can't believe you stroud truthers are clinging to this hype after dude had one of the worst playoff games in nfl history 😂😂😂

[@dumpsterfirefrl]

Seems right. Looked pretty bad through the 1st half of the season then finished well in the 2nd half. Kind of the same as Trevor Lawrence in 2022 with an elite half season and a playoff win. I buy into the Love hype more than TLaw, but still got to see consistency through an entire season and his decision making in the clutch improve. His close game splits (4th QTR, +/-7, Last 2 Min. Half) fell off a cliff from his regular production.

[@dez1446]

5 games not half the season

[@austinthomas7170]

13 is way to low lol what the hell

[@hitstickn1ck]

He still has to figure out the real deep ball. He probably can’t throw 60-70 yards comfortably. But if he ever does, Christian Watson becomes a superstar and this offense reaches new heights.

[@Laabby17]

He can throw that he just doesn’t step into his deep ball it can get there though.

[@jesseschave7853]

I think this ranking has more to do with the small sample size. Love was great for half a season, but I think it's very optimistic to assume he's going to maintain that level of play indefinitely.

[@KhawmTiti]

There is no way Jordan Love is above Aron Rodgers

[@dariangibbons6880]

[@JerC-h3q]

JLove is my QB but I’m not mad he put him at 13, let him prove he can sustain this level of greatness a full season and he will be top 5 for a decade. He still needs to get better pre and post snap and gain experience which is scary, he can be even better.

[@TheEconomicEqualizer]

Jordan was the #1 QB the second half of the year and you have him at 13. You have QBs ahead of him that he beat! It's a good thing your not a GM.

[@agm8531]

Stroud, Love, Lawrence, Mayfield and Prescott being rated above Purdy is insane. Im a 49er fan, sure, but I also find it crazy that Simms will rank people high from 1 good year and will stand pat on Purdy who came off from a blown out elbow and nearly won the MVP. The disrespect is almost to the point where you think he's protecting his friend Kyle in a way.

@@dimension_5th Never played "500" when you were a kid??? It's played by throwing a football up in the air & however many players are playing vye to catch it. Whomever catches it scores points towards "500". Pretty much a hope & a prayer throw, which Love did quite often last year.

Purdy has a team of all-pros around him and Jlove only had first and second year wrs. All Purdy needs to do is run the offense (which he does arguably at an elite level) but you cant tell me he has the talent and ceiling of Jordan love.

[@williamhermann6635]

Is this a joke? He shouldve had more wins but the defense cost him 2 4th qtr comeback wins. Defense choked against the 49ers too. How you gonna blame him for that loss when the defende gave up the lead with 1 minute left? Love had the lead the entire game and the defense fell apart.

[@humanalarmclock]

@@williamhermann6635 because he throws chokey picks that seal games. Like 4 different times last season. The Broncos pick to PJ Locke was boneheaded. The one against the Niners looked like he peed down his leg.
