Jordan Love’s Starting Debut Was a Lose-Lose Day for the Packers

What happened Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium was a lose-lose for the Packers’ organization. They snapped their seven-game win streak with a loss to a Chiefs team that continues to look like a shell of the dynamic group that went to two straight Super Bowls. And Jordan Love, the QB they traded up for in the first round of the 2020 draft, struggled in his starting debut.

All that being said, it would be a mistake to judge Love off one performance, under far-less-than-ideal circumstances: on the road at one of the toughest places to play in the NFL, with only one day of practice with Davante Adams and amid the maelstrom swirling around the team because of how Aaron Rodgers handled his decision not to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
