The Green Bay Packers stunned the world last season.
They became the NFL’s youngest playoff squad ever, and they were four points away from reaching the NFC Championship Game.
That’s despite a poor start to the season, and with all of their young players, they appear to be ahead of schedule and have a promising future.
Given that, NFL expert Kimberley A. Martin recently stated that she would rather have Jordan Love over Jalen Hurts right now.
Speaking on ESPN’s “First Take,” she remarked that while she admires Hurts’ play, she has some reservations about the Philadelphia Eagles’ squad heading into the season.
The Packers, on the other hand, have a young team led by an offensively gifted coach.
She also appreciates the fact that Jordan Love stepped in to replace Aaron Rodgers, and he quickly shown that he might be their guy in the future.
To be honest, Love much exceeded expectations last season, whereas Hurts was mildly disappointing.
Hurts wasn’t totally healthy, but even when he was, the Eagles’ offense declined from the previous season, and much of that was due to his level of performance.
Love, on the other hand, concluded the season as an MVP, carrying his team on his shoulders to the promised land.
Now it’s all about maintaining that level and improving even more, which is frequently the most difficult challenge for quarterbacks following a breakout season.
