Statistics fail to tell the whole story for sure - have to lead with that. BUT, wanted to provide this year through three, 2022 through three and 2021 through three passer stats and ratings.
Many know or knew I am a Love fan, but I had serious apprehension on his abilities and how it would look especially early.
It is crazy to think how "clean" Love has been in the turnover column so far and I think one thing he has for sure learned from sitting behind Rodgers is how pivotal that aspect of the game is. The GLARING spot everyone knows is there is the completion percentage....imagine what Love would have done so far had he just completed 60%....which is still quite a bit behind the typical Rodgers.
All in all though outside of Completion percentage we are actually getting a lot more similar play out of the QB than I would have ever bet on.
One aspect I didn't include before typing this was rushing yards...submitting those below through three:
2022 - Rodgers had 8 yards
2021 - Rodgers had 6 yards
2023 - Love has 74 yards
BUT look at Rodgers early in career:
2008 - had 44 yards through three
2009 - had 92 yards through three
Just some comparisons for observational purposes. Will attempt to do this a few times through the season just for tracking sake and observations.
