00:02 >> Roy, I think you're one of the few people that could speak to the quarterback
00:06 before Brett Favre in Green Bay.
00:08 I don't think many people remember that.
00:10 That's a great trivia question.
00:11 They remember Aaron Rodgers, they remember Brett Favre.
00:13 Do they remember the Magic Man?
00:15 I don't know, I'm sure you do.
00:17 But Jordan Love took over.
00:18 >> [LAUGH] >> Jordan Love, I remember.
00:21 Jordan Love took over as quarterback this season.
00:24 It felt like there was a lot of good feelings with this,
00:27 with Matt LeFleur and company.
00:28 They really wanted to see what he could do.
00:31 Thus far, really good reviews as to how he's played.
00:35 Do you feel the same way?
00:36 >> I do.
00:38 I think for the most part, there's always gonna be a question.
00:42 Do rookie quarterbacks in the first round,
00:45 do you just play them and get the experience?
00:49 Or do you let them sit?
00:51 Now, the good thing about it, Jordan was able to watch Aaron for
00:54 three years as Aaron did for Brett.
00:58 But the problem was every offseason, the last two offseason,
01:02 Jordan think he's gonna be the guy Aaron would play.
01:06 Well, this offseason, it got to a point that Aaron kinda outgrew the organization.
01:12 He wanted to do something new.
01:13 Now, Jordan, way before the preseason, before the summer, you're our guy.
01:20 Fast forward to now, everybody has his back.
01:23 They're proud of the way he's unflappable.
01:25 He knows, Craig, that he has to be more accurate.
01:30 You have to be more accurate in this league.
01:32 He's missed some wide open guys.
01:34 He threw his first interception, but he throws a lot of touchdowns.
01:39 And his rating can go up.
01:41 And I will say this too, they gotta get the running game going.
01:44 That will help him.
01:45 They haven't done that since Aaron Jones, as you pointed out.
01:48 But the offensive line, for the most part, and
01:51 I guarantee anybody outside this interview can name all five starters.
01:55 If you don't live in Wisconsin, you don't know those guys, for the most part.
01:59 Maybe Josh Myers if you're Ohio State, but they've been giving him a clean pocket.
02:04 So I look for him to really get the ball down the field.
