Veteran or youngster? The options for the Packers at backup QB.

While the issues surrounding the starting quarterback position have been easily the story of the offseason, a lesser-discussed issue that also has some importance for the upcoming season is how the Green Bay Packers will handle the backup slot.

For the last several years, the Packers had Jordan Love as the quarterback-in-waiting behind Aaron Rodgers. Suddenly, Love is the guy, and what he brings to the team is entirely uncertain. While there is certainly a lot of excitement for Love's potential (and there are plenty who believe he's going to step in and play well), it's important to note that, at this point, none of us has a clear idea of whether Love can truly be *the guy* for the long term for this team.
