Does anything about the Green Bay Quarterback stand out?

Does anything about this kid stand out, what does he do well, what does he struggle at? It's good playing Green Bay and #12 isn't there!
He’s got a really nice arm. He can make throws off his back foot and with different arm angles.

He’s a very physically talented player. He just is still inexperienced obviously as this is his first year starting in the NFL

He is starting to pick it up more recently, or I should say it might be starting to click. You can tell he picked up some of Rodgers nuances like back foot throws and various arm angles like @HungryLion said. He started out with accuracy issues in the beginning but I wouldn’t say it’s a big issue anymore.

Been impressed with Jordan Love, especially as the seaso unfolded. He ended up with 36 total TDs, just two behind Dak, despite the following:
  • It's his 1st year as a starter
  • Zero All Pros on the offense
  • Zero Pro-Bowlers on offense (none on the defense either)
  • Zero 1st round picks on the Packers offense (other than Love)
  • Youngest offense in the NFL -- I think I saw the average age of the pass catchers is 23
  • Starting Left Tackle (Baktiari) missed 16 of 17 games
  • Their WR1 (Watson) missed a majority of the games
  • Their RB1 (Jones) missed a good portion of the season
In other words, when you read through that list you wouldn't assume the QB would be among the league leaders in his first year.

I'm highly confident the Cowboys are going to blast the Packers on Sunday. That said I think the future looks very bright for Love. He looks like the total package.

Broaddus says he's good against zone but struggles against man. That you want to also speed him up. His drop back/release is 4.7 seconds and cowboys defense only gives teams 4.2 seconds.
If only the officials can start calling holding against Micah, right?

He is good in the pocket, especially against zone. Get him off his spot, force him to make a throw moving around, and he gets much worse.

He'll probably get better at that over time because he is athletic, but not in the next 5 days.

He made two incredible wow throws last week hitting the receivers in the hands. Wrs dropped both when hitting the ground. Ceedee ir deebo catch those. Like I said if he had a great wr his numbers would have been better.

I hope the packers win Sunday but know the decks are stacked against them. Hoping love and the packers put up a good showing like AR did against Arizona his 1st game even though he lost it.

Love is peaking at just the right time for the Packers, just the wrong time for the Cowboys.

Love had a passer rating over 100.0 in 7 of the Packers last 8 games. This is probably the reason the Packers are 6-2 in their last 8 games.

Don't go by their total season record. The Packers are not the same team that started out in September.

During the 2nd half of the season, Jordan Love is ranked:

2nd in passer rating
2nd in completion percentage
1st in passing yards
5th lowest INT percentage
1st in lowest sack rate
1st in success rate of yards required per down
2nd in TD percentage.

The Dallas Cowboys have been rewarded as the 2nd seed by playing the team that is currently playing their best football at this point of the season. The same can be said about their quarterback.

The Cowboys better come to play because this offense is serious and t heir quarterback is playing like he doesn't plan on waiting 8 years for a championship.

You know how we make qb's look that have a little athleticism
