Will Jordan Love be better in 2023 than Aaron Rodgers was in 2022?

Remember, he is not a rookie anymore. While he has not had much exposure to meaningful NFL action, from a mental standpoint, the fourth year QB should have a firm grasp of the offense he will step into.

Love also has a decent cast around him. Along with one of the NFL’s better running back tandems in Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon to lean on, a well-above average pass protection will also help him stay upright.

While the receiver and tight end depth charts look thin right now, there is still time to add weapons, and in the meantime, Love does have an ascending star in Christian Watson to target.

It is not perfect, but it should be plenty to allow Love to look at least competent. As a minimum in 2023, he needs to show he is someone the Packers can win with, if not because of.

There will naturally be growing pains, but those could come later in the season rather than early. Not much tape exists on Love and if he could catch teams somewhat by surprise. Once the book is out on him though, he will need to adjust on the fly.

Packers fans may have to get used to seeing more interceptions once Rodgers is gone, but with the offense being under the full control of Matt LaFleur, it could look more cohesive and efficient than the brainchild of LaFleur and Rodgers often did.

While the transition from Rodgers to Love will undoubtedly be rocky at times, there is a legitimate possibility of a better end result in terms of wins and losses for the Packers in 2023.
