Green Bay Packers backup Jordan Love throws 3 INTs in loss to San Francisco 49ers, but coach Matt LaFleur 'pleased' with performance

Two weeks into training camp, Jordan Love was a more accurate, more effective quarterback who has drawn praise from Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur.

LaFleur isn't going to let Love's three-interception performance in the preseason opener change that. He largely absolved his backup quarterback of responsibility for the turnovers in Friday's preseason opener, a 28-21 loss at the San Francisco 49ers.

"I think two of those you can totally take off him," LaFleur said. "The third one, again, we had two busted routes because the ball really shouldn't have gone there on that play, but he had nowhere else to go with the football, and he forced it in there and the defender made a good play.
