00:00Let's start with the biggest tea leaf of all, that's in Green Bay.

00:06Jordan Love, injured late in the Sao Paulo Brazilian opener to the 2024 NFL season for

00:13Green Bay.

00:14We thought at the time, DRS, as he was hobbled, helped off the field in Sao Paulo, that maybe

00:20it could be the worst.

00:22After being paid this off-season, that maybe his year was done after only one game.

00:28Sprained MCL, not nearly as bad as some people imagined or feared.

00:34He was not going to be placed on the IR, but still set to miss a few weeks.

00:39Yesterday, Love back out on the practice field in Wisconsin.

00:43Yesterday, Jordan meeting with reporters and saying, quote, he's hopeful he can start on

00:48Sunday in Tennessee against the Titans.

00:51If you watched our first segment, you know Commissioner of the National Football League

00:55injury report, Donny, right side, says absolutely no chance.

00:58DRS, how you feeling about it after a commercial break?

01:01Yeah, no, there's no chance that he played.

01:04Let's understand the concept here of injuring your knee as a franchise quarterback and making

01:09sure you're healthy enough to protect yourself in the pocket.

01:12And also, Ben, let's understand, they lost to the Philadelphia Eagles opening night.

01:15Malik Willis came in and played a steady hand in week number two and beat a decent Indianapolis

01:20Colts team, which are one and one.

01:21Not 0 and 2.

01:22And Malik Willis didn't go 6 for 24 with four interceptions.

01:26You said we're just going to lose games until you get back out there.

01:29Can you stand in the pocket like a statue will protect you?

01:32Can you just get out there and help us be a competent football team?

01:35You don't need that.

01:36So why would you rush your franchise quarterback back?

01:38And I understand that we don't have doctors in the room that have completely diagnosed

01:42this and are letting us know.

01:44It's apparent that he is a quick healer.

01:46But when you deal with that type of injury, you can't risk it.

01:49Let's just say he's not 100 percent and plays this weekend against a very good Tennessee

01:53Titans defense and takes a low hit.

01:55And now he's down for the season, injures that knee more, and it's an ACL.

01:58Wait till he's 100 percent.

02:00You won last week.

02:01You can win this week again without him.

02:04Give him an extra week to recover.

02:05I understand he wants to play.

02:07It's what professional athletes want to do.

02:09But understandably, he's not playing this Sunday.

02:12Absolutely not for me.
