Also there is a very big difference between "circumstances not being perfect" and literally being without your WR1, RB1, OT1, & LG1, and also having a historically young supporting cast. I'm curious what you would consider a good season from him, what are your actual expectations?
You're projecting. I'm not completely ignoring anything let alone chunks of games. With that being said, you bet your ass I'm going to weight certain games more than others and how they apply to realistic scenarios moving forward. For example, the Bears look like they may be historically bad. And given that game is the primary feather in Love's cap right now, doesn't it make sense to view that with a grain of salt?
I want Love to look like a natural NFL QB, and he just looks a bit mechanical. Good NFL QBs can go off script. Love struggles there. Last night in particular, ESPECIALLY early on, he held onto the ball WAY too long but you've got folks here just blaming it all on the O-Line. The first three and out after the pick was an utter disaster and he took that sack, NOT the O-Line. Or that little flip on the check down last night after he held onto the ball too long is just a "what the **** are you doing" thing and it's happened a few times. That to me says something is off between the ears, that scripting is necessary, and when you couple that with the inaccuracy, I don't think it bodes well.
I had expectations for him after last year's Philly game. He doesn't look like the guy who played in that contest.
