Sports pundit Skip Bayless tells the young quarterback Jordan Love, who is 24 years old, to break away from Packers’ legend Aaron Rodgers after allegedly Rodgers indirectly criticized him. Today, Bayless wrote via X, “Jordan Love should cut ties with Aaron Rodgers.”

Then, on Tuesday’s episode of ‘The Pat McAfee Show,’ Rodgers reassures fans that Love is a good kid, saying, “I would just say to the Packer fans, take some deep breaths, trust this kid, he’s a great kid,” urging patience as he grows and the team improves, despite a tough start.

Rodgers also mentioned that he understands the Packers’ offense well. Although most people might view Rodgers’ ongoing comments about his ex-team’s QB as criticism or unnecessary. Nevertheless, Love made some mistakes against the Raiders that cost the Packers dearly.

Jordan Love threw three interceptions as the Packers fell to the Raiders 17-13, and his performance was evaluated on the show ‘Undisputed.’ Former cornerback Richard Sherman gave Jordan Love a C-minus grade for his performance in the game.

Sherman acknowledged that Love is a young quarterback going through ups and downs. Despite some interceptions, he recognized his potential and talent as a quarterback. One interception is highlighted as particularly costly and questionable, as Love threw the ball right to a Raiders linebacker, Robert Spillane, who set up an easy field goal for the Raiders.
