Jordan Love is heading into his 2023 defense season. While he did enough to convince the Green Bay Packers to fork over the dough, he has left some doubters in the stands. Without a larger sample size, some fans doubt his ability to duplicate his success.
However, as far as tests go, it doesn’t get much bigger ahead of January. The Packers will face the Philadelphia Eagles on Friday in Brazil in the NFL’s second game of the year.
As far as the atmosphere and quality of the opponent are concerned, this will be Love’s biggest stage for months.
Here are three bold predictions for the successor to Aaron Rodgers.
Jordan Love will throw three touchdowns, zero interceptions
Love will confirm everything that was teased in 2023, ripping off three touchdowns and zero interceptions against Jalen Hurts. The game will take the form of a shootout in warm weather, allowing plenty of opportunities to hit Jayden Reed and Christian Watson for big gains routinely.
As a result, the Packers will get 21 points courtesy of their quarterback. Despite the travel to Brazil and the questions and the big stage, Love will deliver.
He will lead a massive win
Overall, Love’s team will win by at least 14 points with the difference coming from Love’s arm. The Packers will fly back to the midwest feeling much more confident about the season. Meanwhile, the Eagles will be left with their heads down, wondering what could have been different.
Nick Sirianni will have plenty to answer for, and it will be due to Love. The comparisons to Rodgers will flow freely from the mouths of Brazilians and Americans alike following the late evening conclusion to the contest.
Jordan Love will have two fumbles
While Love will have much more to celebrate than cringe at in the postgame tape review, it won’t be perfect. Love will allow at least one ball to drop to the turf because he attempted to extend one play too long. The second fumble won’t be his fault, with a snap getting caught up on the turf and rolling oddly to the side.
It will then fall on Matt LaFluer to decide whether to praise the quality tape and trust him to fix the error on his own or to address it head-on. Either way, it will be a net positive review for Jordan Love in the game.
