Packers schedule 2023: 5 must-see matchups this season
4. Packers vs. Chargers (Week 11)
Jordan Love and Justin Herbert were both selected in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft, but they landed in completely different situations.
Herbert went to the Los Angeles Chargers. They had just moved on from Philip Rivers and needed a Day 1 starter. The Chargers selected him sixth overall and started him instantly. In three years, Herbert has already thrown for 14,089 yards, 94 touchdowns, and 35 interceptions.
Love needed time to develop. He likely wouldn't have been a good fit in Los Angeles for that reason. Instead, he went to Green Bay, a team that didn't need a new quarterback just yet. Love had the opportunity to develop his game while learning from Aaron Rodgers every day.
Now, Love gets his opportunity.
Love and Herbert lead exciting offenses. Green Bay has Aaron Jones, Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, and Luke Musgrave. Los Angeles has Austin Ekeler, Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, and Quentin Johnston.
It will be fun to see these two quarterbacks go head-to-head in what could be an exciting offensive battle.
Which 2020 first-rounder will come out on top at Lambeau Field? Love or Herbert? It should be a fun game, regardless of which team wins.
