Count Hall of Famer Kurt Warner among the growing number of outside observers who are optimistic about Jordan Love as the Green Bay Packers starting quarterback in 2023.
In the latest of his “QB Confidential” video series, Warner dug into the preseason tape of Love and liked what he found, especially from a process standout.
Specifically, Warner was impressed with Love’s ability to go through progressions, understand everything involved within certain concepts and coverages, and find the right target consistently.
“How definitive he was, getting back, seeing it, eyes in the right spot, ball out, pretty accurate for the most part when his feet were set, good on the naked boot leg. Just like what I’ve seen up to this point. Doesn’t guarantee us anything. But very seldom do you see guys that do certain things like this week after week that don’t know what they are doing, who are just falling into this kind of success,” Warner said. “Going to be some growing pains for a young quarterback who hasn’t played. All I’m telling you is that when you watch the tape, there’s been some really good things that leave me optimistic that he’s going to play some really good football this year, even if he has some bumps in the road.”
Several times, Warner highlighted Love’s ability to identify “the right place” to go with the football, which he called the most important part of playing the quarterback position.
