Jordan Love Could Be On Pace For An MVP-Caliber Season

 

The Green Bay Packers entered the season with a Super Bowl-caliber roster.

That’s why it’s disappointing to see that they’re 2-1-1 heading into their bye.

Critics will be quick to point the finger at quarterback Jordan Love, who, along with head coach Matt LaFleur, usually takes most of the blame.

Nevertheless, as pointed out by Felipe Reis Aceti, Love is on pace to post MVP-caliber numbers.

If he keeps it up, he will finish the season with 4,250 passing yards, 34 touchdowns and four interceptions.

Of course, that last stat might not be sustainable, especially given his tendency to put the ball in harm’s way, but it speaks volumes about how good he’s been so far.

Also, considering the fact that his offensive line has been in flux, it’s even more impressive.

Elgton Jenkins has struggled to make the adjustment to center, and being without Aaron Banks and Zach Tom has held them back somewhat.

Yet, Love continues to find his receivers, even with Christian Watson and Jayden Reed sidelined by injuries.

Love doesn’t always make the right decision, and one could argue he’s cost his team in the past.

But he deserves more credit than he’s gotten for most of his NFL career.

Numbers don’t lie, and Love is posting some of the best in the league, and he should be able to add to them when Green Bay returns to action against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 6.
