With Aaron Rodgers likely headed out the door next offseason, Green Bay needs to know exactly what it has in Love. Through two preseason games and a full training camp, the results are rather mixed. Saturday’s Packers vs Bills contest is Love’s final shot to prove he is almost ready to become the face of an NFL franchise.
On the other side of the field, a quarterback who didn’t live up to his first-round status. Trubisky certainly seems more relaxed in Buffalo and the environment is likely far better for his future. In the Bills’ dream 2021 scenario, Trubisky never sees the field after August. So, this is one of his last shots to prove he has the tools to start.

Advantage: Jordan Love
Gabriel Davis is easily one of the most underrated wide receivers in recent draft classes. He displayed excellent speed in his rookie season and proved to be an even bigger contributor than anyone expected. With uncertainty around Cole Beasley’s future and Emmanuel Sanders known for durability issues, opportunity awaits.

This also means Eric Stokes has a great opportunity on Saturday. He’s faced receivers like Davis before, some even better. Of course, Green Bay’s first-round pick is still learning the finer points of the position and experience matters. With that said, this will be a fun matchup.
Advantage: Buffalo Bills
This is one of the more unheralded matchups in Saturday’s Packers vs Bills contest. On one side, Buffalo’s rookie edge rushers are making some noise in their first months on the job. Meanwhile, Green Bay is shuffling its offensive line to deal with injuries.
