[QUOTE="Magooch, post: 1015170, member: 17987"] I do still worry that he is just not fundamentally a super accurate QB. I am not sure how much that will change… I’d expect some improvement, but for the most part it seems like with a few exceptions when a quarterback is not super accurate in college and not super accurate entering the league, it’s very rare for them to buck that trend and reinvent themselves as a precision passer. (Josh Allen is frequently cited as an example, but tbh I think he makes far too many ill-advised boneheaded passes that get excused away for whatever reason, so I don’t count that for much) That said it may also be that the Rodgers era has perhaps left some unrealistic (and/or unnecessary) expectations in that area. Rodgers was often hyper-accurate and “safe,” even to a fault at times. Of course I’d like to see Love continue to get those numbers up, but he doesn’t have to be Rodgers-accurate to be successful And I also think there is a difference between making an inaccurate throw vs making an “accurate, but bad” throw, if that makes sense. I don’t know exactly how to phrase it. It’s like… it’s one thing to just miss your man. It’s another to put the ball where it’s supposed to be, but fail to recognize that your receiver didn’t break properly or fail to recognize the coverage or etc. One’s “inaccurate,” the other is just a bad decision. To be fair I think Love does both at times. But while you might not be able to fundamentally become a radically more accurate passer, decision-making should improve with experience and chemistry. And that will raise those numbers, too. For some context Love is about a 60.5% passer this season. Favre for his career was about a 62% passer. The difference between 60.5% and 62% on this season would be about 5 more completions… total. (225/372=60.48%, 230/372=61.8%) 20 more completions across 11 games would put him at Rodgers’ career ~65% completion. These are relatively small margins we’re talking about right now. Anyways all that to say Love’s at least certainly done enough to be assumed to be the starter in 2024 at this point (and has likely played us out of being able to draft a decent QB pick, if that was ever an option, anyways).
