The brief
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love heard chants of MVP after the team's 45-27 victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday. Love, who completed 23 of 29 passes for 372 yards and three touchdowns in the game, said the performance was "definitely up there" when asked if it was his best yet. The win marked another example of the Packers putting together an all-around performance, with the defense forcing four turnovers and the running game getting going with Kaleb Johnson rushing for 4.9 yards per carry and a touchdown. Love's top receivers, Christian Watson and Matthew Golden, both surpassed 160 receiving yards in the game. Love has been putting up impressive numbers this season, leading the league with 2,618 passing yards and ranking third with 19 touchdowns. The Packers Wire reported that head coach Matt LaFleur agreed Love is playing at MVP level. The team's previous dominant performance came in a Sunday Night Football win over the Dallas Cowboys earlier in the season. Love's 100th career touchdown pass went to Matthew Golden in this game. The challenge for Green Bay remains maintaining this level of performance consistently on both sides of the ball as they pursue a championship.
