Every week Jordan Love does something great, those who break down film harken back to number-4 and number-12, and how Love is doing some of the same things those guys did.
But Love is starting to build a legacy of his own.
Over his last nine games, Love has thrown 21 touchdowns and just 1 interception. Love has helped guide the Packers from 2-5 to 9-8 and two wins away from representing the NFC in the Super Bowl.
Love’s performance over a 9-game stretch is only rivaled in Packers history by Rodgers’ incredible “run the table” stretch in 2016. Â
In the rich and storied history of the Green Bay Packers, never has there been a season in which the team beat the Dallas Cowboys and the San Francisco 49ers in the playoffs.
As a member of the Packers, Favre was winless in three opportunities against the Cowboys in the post-season.
Aaron Rodgers had similar struggles against the 49ers going 0-4.
Here’s Love, in his first year as a starter, and his second career playoff start, with a chance to etch his name in Packers history as the first quarterback to ever beat the Cowboys and the 49ers in the same post-season.
In time, Love will be the player experts use to compare the next great Packers quarterback.
