Episode notes
Packers' Unique Advantage
- The Green Bay Packers' lack of an owner is now a strength, allowing them to prioritize quarterback development.
- This approach has led to three straight star quarterbacks: Favre, Rodgers, and potentially Love.
Quarterback-Coach Synergy
- Colin Cowherd emphasizes the inseparable link between quarterbacks and their coaches.
- He highlights Matt LaFleur's run-focused offensive style with Jordan Love, similar to Shanahan and McVay.
NFL's Growing Divide
