It's been a rollercoaster with Love but obviously thrilled if things continue to click for him. MLF called a good game as well.

I'm kind of embarrassed how strongly I felt Love wasn't gonna be the guy just 3-4 weeks ago. And now having to admit I may be doing a 180 on him so quickly.
I always liked his confidence. His poise. And just how calm he always seems. But it was the accuracy that I didn't think would be correctable. But he's made some great throws of late. His biggest issue is still his deep throws being underthrown. That is definitely an issue.
So, who knows how things will turn out with Love. But as of right now, I'm very optimistic about our QB situation as I'm sitting here enjoying some crow on Thanksgiving day.

Barry still needs to go. I don't care if we make the playoffs. I'm not getting fooled. Sadly he's more likely to get an extension before being fired.

Totally agree but I think we are stuck with him.

Idk. I feel people hate aikman like they hate marques Johnson. Like last night giannis may have stepped on the line on a drive and Johnson pointed it out. Just because he pointed out a missed call doesn't mean he hates the team.
Marques is beyond fair as an announcer and the fact that he calls the games honestly is refreshing. Anyone hating on him should tune into a Warriors broadcast to see what the opposite is like.

I am a firm believer in the power of the tank, but if we are going to win games, it’s nice to look good doing it rather than falling ass backwards into the victory. Young guys earned it today and looked pretty good doing it. Tip of the cap.

yeah for me in the NFL you tank for a franchise QB, so if we are winning games because our QB is playing like Love did today, then I'm good, keep it coming.

I can get onboard for sure with Love showing improvement and playing like a franchise QB. Early returns were concerning, but if this is the guy we get along with eventual better deep ball accuracy, then the future is bright, top 5 pick or not.

Re: Game 11: Packers at Lions - 11/23/23 - 11:30 - FOX
Now that was a fun game. I gotta admit even as an optimist I thought we would win around 5 or 6 games this year. I posted in the game thread a month or so ago about the youngest team in the NFL averaging 5 wins in a season over the last decade, we are now at that win total with 6 games still to go. Seeing how we've played the last 4 weeks has been really fun and I'm excited to see if we can actually make some sort of playoff push(even if we don't actually get in). Jordan Love was phenomenal today, major props to Christian Watson for his performance today too, the line held up really well too! Defensively they had a great gameplan, Gary was an absolute monster, & Mr. Simone Biles turned in his best performance as a Packer. Major props to the coaching staff for their gameplan today and the way they are developing these young guys. Zero complaints at all today. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

That's the key thing right there.
Today, anyway...... No Jones, Alexander, Campbell, or Bahktiari - no problem. Of course, against the Chiefs that formula may not hold up so well.....

I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I think there is a real case to say this was MLFs most impressive win as a Head Coach. The Arizona one a few years back is also certainly up there but I think I might put this above it

No idea what this tweet was but I 10,000% support any shaming of people and their opinions against Gary, now too but especially from around draft time. It was completely embarrassing.
