quarterback Jordan Love will constantly be compared to Aaron Rodgers during his career, right or wrong. That’s just the nature of the beast when you replace a four-time MVP at the most important position in the sport.
Packers fans should be casting a wider net, though, for Love comparisons. Everyone wants to stack Rodgers’ first season as a starter head-to-head with Love’s, but isn’t it better to get a wider sample of examples from around the league? With that in mind, I decided to dive into the data and pull what every preferred starting quarterback’s first six starts in the league looked like, so that we can evaluate where Love lands on the bell curve.
