The Green Bay Packers have won four of their last five games. Their only loss during that stretch was three points to their division rival, the Detroit Lions. More importantly, the Packers are making their playoff push, and quarterback Jordan Love is a big reason for their success.
As the Packers’ official account on X/Twitter pointed out, Love has a passer rating of at least 100 in five consecutive games. The streak started when he had a 113 rating in their 20-19 victory over the Chicago Bears. Love finished that game with 13 completions for 261 yards and a touchdown.
His 107.7 rating helped the Packers defeat the San Francisco 49ers 38-10 a week later. The quarterback from Utah State had 13 passes for 163 yards and two touchdowns for the 49ers. Love and the Packers were triumphant in their Thursday Night Football game against the Miami Dolphins. Despite the short week, he had a 129.2 rating after finishing with 21 completions for 274 yards and two touchdowns.
While Love only had 12 completions for 206 and a touchdown against the Lions, he still had a 111.7 rating. Finally, he bounced back with a 123.8 rating in their victory over the Seattle Seahawks. The Packers improved to 10-4 as Love tallied 20 completions for 229 yards and two touchdowns.
In addition to Love’s steady performances, those victories bring them close to another playoff berth.
