Jordan Love has shown flashes of being a superstar in his first two years as the starting quarterback of the Green Bay Packers. While the flashes have been there, he has not been able to be that player week in and week out.

Heading into the 2025 season, Love needs to show more. He needs to prove that he can be the guy that leads the Packers back to Super Bowl contention. Many are expecting just that from him.

Last season, Love went down with a knee injury in Week 1 against the Philadelphia Eagles in Brazil. How much of an impact that played in his season that came up short of expectations is unknown.

He completed 63.1 percent of his passes for 3,389 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions.

Obviously, that was not the kind of season Green Bay was hoping to see from him. Looking ahead to the 2025 season, one coach spoke out and revealed an interesting focal point for Love.

Former NFL quarterback Sean Mannion is the new quarterbacks coach for the Packers. He spoke out at length about Love and one thing that he wants the young quarterback to focus on in particular.

“I think it’s ownership of our progressions and timing and reading with our feet,” Mannion said. ““And then just the fundamentals of the position. For me, it really starts with footwork. That’s something that all quarterbacks need to focus on, but I know really when I first was exposed to it was with Matt in L.A. in 2017. It was kind of a foundational moment in my playing career. I got so much better from understanding how the footwork helps your accuracy, it helps your decision making, it helps the timing of the play.”

He continued on, finalizing his thoughts on the matter.

“That’s really the starting point with any quarterback, but Jordan in particular.” Mannion said. “We really just always want to have that point of emphasis at the forefront of our mind.”

If Love can take the leap that many fans are expecting him to make at some point, Green Bay would be an instant Super Bowl favorite. Hopefully, that year is 2025 and the Packers can bring the Lombardi Trophy home where it belongs.
