Official pregame & gameday thread: Hey... ya know... Rams at Packers today!

[adambr2]

We can talk all day (correctly) about how Love hasn't had the right pieces around him to succeed.

But if he continues to be as inaccurate as he is on deep throws, I don't see how he's ever going to be the guy.

 

[Big L]

So those are things that may go unnoticed. Watson has his man beaten badly, but the ball was so terribly aunder-thrown that it was even short for the defender. So what turned into what should have been an easy TD, became a Packer punt

 

[Team Ronny]

Gee Lafleur every team watches film! Nobody is falling for the fakes on 4th down! Either grow a set of nuts and go for it, or punt!!!!

 

[AKCheese]

Looked to me like Love waited to long to throw it

 

[Big L]

If you can't connect on deep balls then you aren't a starting quality NFL QB.

I wouldn't think that deep ball accuracy is a 'youth' thing.

Not being accurate has nothing to do with inexperience or youth

 

[GBowner]

Why don’t they put a trash can in the end zone and make Love throw at it from mid field all day? Maybe have his vision checked, too. Just do something. He’s horrible on deep throws.

 

[AKCheese]

Lucky we didnt get flagged block in the back

Yeah I don't know what to say about it anymore. It feels like we're trying to teach calculus to someone who is just really bad at math. Or teach someone who isn't mechanically inclined how to build engines.

I don't know how you teach someone who has always been bad at throwing deep balls how to throw a deep ball.

Because he can’t get it there from mid-field - lol

 

[Zartan]

Love needs to pump some iron. He just can't put heat on his throws.

Agreed, I'll even buy the trash can, and if he still can't do it, I'll be the one who tells him he can start his new career early by hauling the trash can away.

 

[AKCheese]

Love had to throw it 55 in the air to get it in front of Watson is that a standard doable throw?

 

[GBowner]

Ok try the 40 then lol. Or the backup qb.

 

[AKCheese]

Maybe Love thought he’d come back?

 

[PackerDNA]

Jones isn't a big guy, but he runs big

 

[AKCheese]

Ball would have had to be 5 deep in the end zone think Love had to be around the 50

 

[tripleguy]

In the Packer Family Night scrimmage, none of the QBs could drop one in the net. Some got close but Love wasn't even close.

 

[Cornelius Weems]

I'm about to buy the refs some glasses

 

[Big L]

I can smell the wife making homemade butter top bread for supper after the game. I will be making from scratch chicken and jumbo shrimp a la king in my cast iron skillet

 

[AKCheese]

Didnt look offside to me

He supposedly has a strong arm. Just not accurate.

 

[Zartan]

I'm starting to think the refs are smoking the Mary Jane today

 

[BrokenArrow]

That's because it clearly wasn't!

 

[Firethorn1001]

MLF said "You have to earn the right to throw deep"

Not sure I've heard a coach say that. You might as well say "I don't trust you to throw deep"

 

[Big L]

Those are horse sh** offensive offside calls. Olineman line up that way all the time. I can’t remember the last time I have seen that called
