It IS Jordan Love Time !!

It's still an audition for him. Showed early promise, growth after struggles, now coming together. The world is his oyster, keep up this level of play and bring it home, make it an easy decision for the GM and org.
 
Perspective on what Love/ML have been able to do this year. Yes you balance the bad with the good but the good has been, based on the Packers own history, REAL good. Elite good. The ceiling here and production is nothing to sneer at or gloss over.

Jordan Love, QB, Packers​

  • Maximum: $9 million
  • Expected bonus: $2.5 million
Aaron Rodgers' request to be traded to Jets was granted because of the Packers being comfortable with Love taking the reins at quarterback despite his extremely limited track record. The Packers hedged their bets by signing Love to a one-year, $13.5 million extension, worth up to $22.5 million through salary escalators, before the May 2 deadline to pick up his fully guaranteed $20.272 million fifth-year option. Love is making $7.5 million more this year than he was scheduled to in the fourth year of his rookie contract.

His 2024 base salary escalates by $500,000 with at least 65% offensive playtime during this regular season. Love has only missed five of Green Bay's 896 offensive snaps this season. It's another $1 million by hitting the 65% mark and Green Bay winning 10 or more regular-season games, making the playoffs or Love ranking in the NFL's top 10 in both passer rating (minimum of 224 pass attempts) and touchdown passes. He is currently 17th and tied for fifth in these categories.

The increase is $500,000 by taking 65% or more of Green Bay's offensive snaps during the season and ranking in the NFL's top 16 in any of the following categories: passer rating, completion percentage, passing yards and touchdown passes. The escalation is $1 million instead for top 16 in two of the four categories. It's $1.5 million with top 16 in three of the four. Love is 10th in the league in passing yards. Another provision is based on 65% playtime where there's $500,000 each for ranking in the NFL's top 10 for these categories that totals $2 million. Love's completion percentage ranks 24th. The 224 pass attempts requirement applies to passer rating and completion percentage.

There's a separate provision worth a maximum $3 million escalation based on the 65% playtime mark and Green Bay's playoff success. Making the playoffs is worth $500,000. Winning a playoff game, while playing at least 65% in that game, is worth another $500,000. The increase is an additional $500,000 each for winning the NFC Championship Game and Super Bowl, while playing a minimum of 65% in the applicable contest.

Being selected to the Pro Bowl Games is a $1 million escalation. Selection as an alternate or replacement doesn't qualify for the increase.
 
Lot of people were trashing the kid before the season. He struggled at times early in the season but he's sure has well has played a great 2nd half of the season. He's proven he's our future starting QB and GB needs to discuss with him in off-season a long term contract.
