Our SI.com team publishers have selected the all-NFC North team. Part 1 is the quarterbacks. Who was the first-team choice? The Packers’ Jordan Love or the Lions’ Jared Goff?
GREEN BAY, Wis. – Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love finished behind the Detroit Lions’ Jared Goff in voting for SI.com’s All-NFC North Team., Goff received three first-place votes and one second-place vote. Love received the other first-place vote and three second-place votes. Caleb Williams, the No. 1 overall pick in this year’s draft by the Chicago Bears, swept the third-place votes.To be sure, if I were starting a franchise, I’d take Love.
Still just 29 years old, Goff is piloting the team through its Super Bowl window. The pressure will be on to win right away, but the passer has proven he can do what it takes to do so. Detroit has built a strong offense around him, so he has the necessary weapons to succeed. That’s the consensus, anyway. The reality is Love has a lot to prove this season, just like he did last season.
He dropped in throws to open spots within zone defenses for receivers to track down or rifled spirals into tight windows. He even threw off the defense with his eye fakes alone during early practices, something that infuriated veteran linebackers. His short throws were far more accurate than those Bears receivers had become used to seeing.
