Wisconsin Sports Heroics argues Jordan Love is having an MVP-caliber season even though his completion percentage is 61.5%. Packers pass catchers have 18 drops, the most in the NFL, and Matthew Golden has eight of them. If half were caught, Love would be at 64.8%.

Dairyland Express says Love has kept the offense together with Jayden Reed out and an offensive line that keeps changing because of injuries. It also credits Jonathan Gannon's defense.
