Madisonians, grab your cheeseheads — football season is back. Dive into all things game day before the Packers’ first NFL game on Sunday, Sept. 10.
What everyone’s talking about:
Love is in the air this football season. Jordan Love, that is. Now that Aaron Rodgers is with the New York Jets, Jordan Love has stepped up to replace the four-time MVP Super Bowl champ as the Packers’ starting quarterback.
Fans, experts, and even Rodgers himself are optimistic about Love’s performance this upcoming season.
He’s got all the talent in the world. They’ve got a really young team, so he’s got an opportunity to be exactly who he wants to be and be the leader that he wants to be. I’m excited for him.”
