Summary
In today's episode, Ryan Schlipp takes on the hot topic that's been stirring controversy among Packers fans: the misguided comparison between Brett Favre and Jordan Love. Ryan dives deep into both quarterbacks' stats, debunks myths about their playstyles, and lays out why this comparison isn't fair for either QB. Are Jordan Love's interceptions really like Favre's? Is Love's touchdown rate a glimpse of greatness? We also explore where Love truly stands among Packers legends and what needs to change for him to succeed. Plus, some light-hearted takes on Jair Alexander's antics and a little shade towards the Jets. Tune in for stats, opinions, and unfiltered Packers talk!

| 0:00.0 | Ladies and gentlemen, welcome once again to the Packernet podcast. |
| 0:13.0 | I am your host and resident panelist, as always Ryan Schlipp. |
| 0:16.1 | Check us out online Packernet.com. |
| 0:18.6 | Find me on Twitter, pack underscore. |
| 0:20.9 | Dada. Well, I want to start off today with something that's very much annoying me. |
| 0:26.7 | It's been talked about a lot. I know you guys like it when I talk about things of which I am |
| 0:30.7 | annoyed. Unfortunately, it's you people I'm annoyed with, so I apologize in advance for that. |
| 0:37.1 | Look, everybody's kind of already talking about it, but I want to really put the defining |
| 0:44.5 | nail in this stupid nonsense, okay? |
| 0:47.3 | It's the Jordan Love, Brett Favre conversation. |
| 0:51.7 | It's being used by two different groups of people in two different contexts, |
| 0:57.2 | and both groups are entirely wrong. If there's any way in which you're saying that Brett |
| 1:02.8 | Farv and Jordan Love are the same, you're just wrong. First of all, there are, I think, a lot of people who either are very young and have no idea what the hell they're talking about, |

| 1:22.5 | that are sort of mocking Jordan Love by saying, you know, things like you thought you were getting Aaron Rogers, |
| 1:29.1 | instead you got Brett Fav, or he throws a bunch of picks and everybody's like, oh, man, looks |
| 1:33.3 | like Brett Fav. I don't know what freaking universe you live in where you think Brett Fav was |
| 1:39.6 | anything other than one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, but you're wrong and you're |
| 1:46.1 | sounding stupid. I've mentioned before, I grew up in the 90s in Illinois. At the time, in the 90s, |
| 1:54.0 | it wasn't a discussion whether or not Brett Farve was good. The discussion was very simply, |
| 1:59.6 | is Brett Farv the greatest quarterback of all time? |
| 2:02.6 | That was the discussion being had, very similar to Aaron Rogers when he was in his prime. |
