    Outside the Lions game. We could have won every game. We used to take pride in "winning ugly,"and now we are losing because of our ugly play. In the last two weeks, I’ve ignored the game threads because of the toxicity that floats from the keyboards of our fans.

    I’m ashamed that people don’t believe in Jordan Love.

    I’m saddened by the hate towards AJ Dillon for his lack luster running in the first few weeks, and then he gets no praise for nearly winning us the game last week. AJ was balling.

    I’m baffled by the lack of respect given to our O-line recently. Playing without their leader and with the next man up mentality.

    Our defense has been sloppy. Gaps in the run game, lots of missed tackles. Yet we are still in nearly every game and have surrendered less than 20 points to 4 of out 6 opponents.

    We are the YOUNGEST team in football, and we look like it.

    Injuries are also plaguing us also but don’t give up!

    The Packers are in the best division ➗️ to find rhythm and play stronger going forward. With Lions, Bears, and Vikings as our competition, anything is possible.

    Please stop slandering the ugliness. Let’s start focusing on the positives and GO PACK GO!

      I can understand why people don’t believe in Love. Personally, I’ve seen enough to make me think that he’s going to turn out well, but I can see why someone might want to see more. What I don’t get is the people convinced he’s a bust. Yes, he’s made some bad decisions, but he’s also made some really good throws. In particular I have no patience for the people who look at the ricochet TD to Jayden Reed and think it’s anything but a good throw by Love. 1) he made the correct read that Doubs would be open. 2) he recognized the rusher in the throwing lane and lowered his arm angle to get the ball around him. 3) the ball was slightly behind Doubs, but still hit him right in the hands. Yeah, we got a lucky break on the bounce, but the only reason we even had a chance for a lucky break is because Love read everything right and hit Doubs right in the hands.

    I’d encourage everyone to watch the latest QB school on Love.

    For those of you who have already given up on Love, I have a question: who on our offense is playing well this season?

    • Doubs
    • Reed
    • Tom

    I’m not counting Jones because of injury.

    And even Doubs/Reed have fucked up on multiple routes every game.

    The reason I say this is because what exactly is Love supposed to do with this offense? We can’t run the ball, our pass blocking is mediocre at best, and receivers are still messing up routes. That is not a winning formula for a young QB to succeed.

    If anything I feel Love is showing a ton of promise and a ton of talent. Like any young QB he has areas to tighten up, but this narrative going around that the primary reason we’re losing is because Love is inaccurate deep doesn’t hold a lot of water with me.
