Jordan Love’s rank among all QBs in TDs through 7 weeks prove why belongs in MVP race

Jordan Love isn’t getting the respect he deserves.

Green Bay Packers fans know how good Jordan Love is, but it seems like the rest of the NFL world still isn’t ready to accept it.

Many analysts focus on his interceptions, which is something he absolutely needs to clean up, but they ignore everything else. Love is fearless. Yes, it leads to turnovers, but more often than not, it results in explosive plays for the Packers’ offense.

The stats back it up. Since the start of the 2023 season, nobody has thrown more touchdown passes than Love’s 47. Baker Mayfield is the next closest with 46. Reigning Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes has 33 in that span and has thrown more interceptions than Love.

Despite missing two games, Love sits near the top of the TD standings again this season.

Jordan Love ranks second in the NFL for touchdown passes

Through the opening seven weeks of the season, Love has thrown 15 touchdown passes, tying Lamar Jackson for the second-most in the NFL. Only Mayfield has more, with 18. The best part? Love missed two games.

Love deserves to be in the MVP conversation. He is making big-time plays week in and week out, and the Packers are winning games.

Touchdowns? Only Mayfield has more. Clutch moments? Love led the Packers on a game-winning drive against the Houston Texans last week. No player has more touchdowns on third down than Love this season.

Love is a playmaker. Including the playoffs, he has thrown multiple touchdown passes in 11 straight games.

Compare his numbers this season to Mahomes’, who has started all seven games for the Kansas City Chiefs but has thrown for only six touchdowns with eight interceptions. But it’s Love getting criticism for his interceptions. Love has nine more touchdown passes than Mahomes (in two fewer games) and the same number of picks (also in two fewer games, to be fair).

Matt LaFleur is letting Love make mistakes because the risk-reward is worth it. He makes far more good plays than bad, and he will learn when to take risks and when to take the more cautious approach.

Despite dealing with a sprained MCL that cost him two games, Love has made an excellent start to the season. He deserves to be among the early frontrunners in the MVP conversation.

BREAKING: Gayle Benson confirms Alvin Kamara and Tyreek Hill will not leave the New Orleans Saints on loan in the upcoming transfer window…

In a significant development, New Orleans Saints owner Gayle Benson has confirmed that star players Alvin Kamara and Tyreek Hill will not be leaving the team on loan during the upcoming transfer window. This announcement puts to rest growing speculation that both players could be on the move, with multiple reports suggesting interest from other NFL teams keen on securing their services.

Alvin Kamara, the Saints’ dynamic running back, has been a cornerstone of the team’s offense for years, known for his explosive playmaking ability and versatility. Despite some challenging seasons, Kamara remains one of the most effective and influential players on the roster. The rumors surrounding his departure were fueled by the team’s rebuilding phase, as many expected the Saints to make changes for future success. However, Benson’s statement reaffirms Kamara’s importance to the team and suggests he will continue to play a key role in the Saints’ plans moving forward.

Similarly, Tyreek Hill, the veteran wide receiver who joined the Saints after a high-profile trade, has become an integral part of the offense with his game-changing speed and deep-threat capabilities. Despite his massive value, rumors of a potential loan transfer to another franchise in the coming months had many fans concerned about the Saints’ ability to retain top talent. However, Benson has now laid those fears to rest, confirming that Hill will remain with the team, helping to solidify the offense as they aim for success in the upcoming season.

This decision marks a pivotal moment for the Saints, who appear committed to keeping their star players as they build a competitive roster. Both Kamara and Hill’s presence will be crucial for the Saints as they strive for playoff contention in the competitive NFC South.

“Despite my efforts, no one ever notices me,” said Rico Payton, a cornerback for the New Orleans team, as he announce that………

“Despite my efforts, no one ever notices me,” said Rico Payton, a cornerback for the New Orleans team, in a statement as he is set to enter a critical phase of his career. Payton, who has spent years proving himself on the field, expressed frustration with the lack of recognition for his hard work and dedication to the game.

As a cornerback, Payton’s job is often one of the most underappreciated in football. He spends countless hours studying his opponents, refining his technique, and preparing for every game, yet his name rarely makes headlines. While quarterbacks, running backs, and wide receivers often steal the spotlight, cornerbacks like Payton are tasked with one of the toughest jobs on the field: shutting down elite wide receivers and making crucial plays in the secondary.

This season, Payton has been an essential part of the New Orleans defense. His ability to read the game, react quickly, and anticipate the moves of opposing players has been instrumental in keeping the team competitive. Despite this, his contributions have often gone unnoticed by fans and media alike, overshadowed by flashier players and higher-profile positions.

“I just want to be recognized for my work,” Payton continued. “It’s not about fame or accolades, but the pride that comes with knowing I helped my team succeed. I’m just as dedicated as anyone else, and I believe I deserve the same respect.”

As he prepares for the upcoming games, Payton remains focused on his craft. His commitment to the game is unwavering, and while he may not always receive the attention he deserves, his impact on the field speaks for itself. For Payton, it’s not about the recognition—it’s about proving, time and time again, that he belongs at the top of his game.

JETS REPORT: New York Jets, Aaron Rodgers hit Franchise changing crossroads Announcing retirement as Jets welcome New QB………

The New York Jets are at a pivotal moment in their franchise history as veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers has announced his decision to retire at the end of the current NFL season. Rodgers, 40, who joined the Jets in a high-profile trade with the Green Bay Packers in the offseason, will leave a lasting legacy in New York. His time with the Jets, though brief, was marked by both promise and challenges as Rodgers struggled with injuries and inconsistent team performance. His retirement signals the end of a potential championship window for the team, leaving the Jets to reshape their future.

In a statement, Rodgers expressed gratitude for the opportunity to play for the Jets and said, “It’s been an honor to be part of this organization, but I know it’s time to step away from the game I love.”

In a dramatic shift, the Jets have wasted no time in securing their next quarterback. In a surprising move, they have signed Cam Ward, the standout quarterback from the Miami Hurricanes. Ward, a rising star in college football, impressed scouts with his strong arm, poise under pressure, and leadership qualities. The Jets are hopeful that Ward will be the answer to their long-standing quarterback dilemma and provide the franchise with the stability it has lacked for years.

With Rodgers moving on, New York’s attention now turns to the future. The acquisition of Ward marks a new era for the Jets, as they hope to build a team around their new quarterback, continuing their pursuit of playoff success and a potential Super Bowl run. The coming months will be critical in defining the trajectory of both Ward’s career and the Jets’ long-term aspirations.
