The stadium is cool, but other than that he's 100% correct.

This city blows, I get out of here every weekend and head up to the cabin, and it gets harder to come back every damn time. Used to be more of a small town vibe when I was a kid so it wasn't as bad, but now it's the worst possible blend; none of the benefits of a big city but all the annoyances.

The nice part is you head 30-45 minutes in any direction and you can find pristine beauty. That's the only reason I stay.

Purdy should do the same.

It isn't Love's fault that they drafted him and waited this long to make him the starter :shrug:

Teams can refuse to honor the contract, though. They cut players all the time.

And also didn't use the 5th year option.

Yeah, like I said, I'm not a fan of the City of Green Bay. My point was the Stadium is a cool experience, and if you like NFL FB games, you should try and make a game.

As any QB with any leverage should do...

8 good games and he's doing it.

**** the Packers.

Thank God for Veach/Reid.

Back to your regularly scheduled programming.

From his side of the deal, he may never have as much leverage as he does right now. I'm not sold on him.

Other than the fact that he's not eligible for an extension until next year, sure.

I think he definitely improved but he also has a pretty solid play caller and a really nice cast around him. He's right to take advantage. What if he comes back to earth this season or gets hurt?

Trade them Carson Wentz for a 3rd and let Love sit and spin.

RunKC 07-22-2024 09:52 AM

Love
Has all the leverage and both sides know it. He was among the best in the league the last 10 weeks of the season and had an incredible playoff debut in Dallas

Similar experience during my 18 year sentence in Chicagoland. Our biggest supplier had season tickets right behind the visitors bench and he gave them to me each time the Chiefs played there during that time. (3)

They were gracious fans, especially after the Chiefs comeback in 2003.

Packers fans have been as spoiled as any fan in football. Those fans have seen nothing but great QB play (good at worst) since Majkowksi in 1992.

32 ****ing years of good QB play at worst. That franchise needs to be humbled and have a Matt Cassel of their own soon
