Jordan Love stepped up in the Green Bay Packers’ 24-22 victory over the Houston Texans on Sunday.
With the Packers down by one and less than two minutes left in the fourth quarter, Love orchestrated a drive that concluded with a game-winning 45-yard field goal from Brandon McManus.
Though his performance wasn’t without flaws, Love made crucial plays to help Green Bay hand Houston its second loss of the season. He completed 24 of 33 passes for 220 yards, with three touchdowns and two interceptions.
Love effectively distributed the ball, connecting with eight different receivers. His main target was Romeo Doubs, who caught eight passes for 95 yards.
Fans were impressed with Love’s showing, with various commentators praising his poise under pressure.
The Packers’ defense also excelled, holding C.J. Stroud to a season-low 86 passing yards and recording four sacks, while Houston managed just 197 total yards.
With Love back at the helm, Green Bay secured its third straight win, improving to 5-2.
