Green Bay Packers: The Simple Blueprint For Jordan Love to be on Aaron Rodgers, Brett Favre Level

Many consider the Green Bay Packers an enviable team when it comes to finding the answer to the most important position in football.

After Brett Favre, the Packers got several years of service under center from another Pro Football Hall of Fame-caliber signal-caller in Aaron Rodgers. With Rodgers gone, the QB1 role in Green Bay has landed on the lap of Jordan Love.

The former Utah State Aggies star quarterback is not even remotely close to the level that Rodgers and Favre are in Green Bay’s all-time QB tiers, but he’s also just entering his third year as the team’s full-time starter. The 2025 NFL season gives him a shot to turn more doubters into believers, and he will have to do it with his play on the field.

Jordan Love has path to Rodgers, Favre Green Bay Packers legacy

Green Bay Packers: The Simple Blueprint For Jordan Love to be on Aaron Rodgers, Brett Favre Level 4 Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (12) and quarterback Jordan Love (10) listen to head coach Matt LaFleur during the fourth quarter of their game Sunday, December 4, 2022 at Soldier Field in Chicago, Ill. The Green Bay Packers beat the Chicago Bears 28-19.

Unsurprisingly ranked as the No. 1 Packers player going into the 2025 NFL season by Sports Illustrated, Love, according to Bill Huber of SI, needs to be available and healthy for his team, as he looks to deliver a Vince Lombardi Trophy to Green Bay, just like what his predecessors in the position did.

Outgoing Packers President Mark Murphy called Aaron Rodgers a “complicated fella.” Love’s not a complicated fella but he is a complicated quarterback to analyze.

This, however, is not complicated at all: For Love to match Favre and Rodgers and win a Super Bowl as a sixth-year pro and third-year starter, he’s going to have to stay healthy and play much closer to the quarterback who took the NFL by storm in 2023 than the one who scuffled down the stretch in 2024.

Leading the Packers to a Super Bowl title is going to be easier said than done for Love, but he’s got Green Bay’s trust and good weapons around him to make that dream happen.
