I understand that Jordan Love had a lot on his plate this week.
The last thing he was thinking about probably was tickets to the game, but that is why you have to have a “Yes Man” or someone on the Packers to handle that for you. Your mom and your lady should be in a suite or at least surrounded by Packers family members at the game.
You can’t have your mom and your lady talking to Jesus about Matt LeFleur’s playcalling. They probably saw Sting hanging out up there watching the game.
I do appreciate that Ronika Stone took it all in stride. That is what a good girlfriend does. She didn’t care if she was in Row 1 or Row 102023049273848282466311. She was there to support her man. She is a keeper, Jordan, so don’t blow it with her.
As for Love, he had his struggles.
Jordan Love started slowly, struggled against the blitz and managed just one touchdown in his first start as the Green Bay Packers’ starting quarterback. But coach Matt LaFleur took the blame for the 13-7 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday.
“This one falls on me, squarely,” LaFleur said. “Certainly, for us to be 2-for-12 on third down, obviously didn’t have a good enough plan for some of the zero pressures that they brought on us.
“But I thought our guys battled. I thought Jordan, I was really proud of the way he played. He hung in there, he was taking hits and delivering the ball. I thought he did a really good job. But I think that, ultimately, I’ve got to be better and this one falls squarely on me.”
“Obviously, not good enough,” Love said when asked to assess his performance. “I think we started off a little slow; I started off a little slow, personally. I think we got into a bit of a rhythm later. Obviously, it was too late. Just not good enough.”
The rule is you blitz young QBs, and you zone veteran QBs. LaFleur is right he should have been more ready.
