Although Jordan Love is a little over one season into his career as a starter in Green Bay, it might be fair to say that the Packers have another elite quarterback.
After leading the Packers to the playoffs and winning a playoff game in his first season as the starter, Love now has his team sitting at 4-2 and in prime position to do something special this year.
NFL analyst Greg Cosell believes Love is one of the top quarterbacks in football right now.
“I think Jordan Love is physically and just traits-wise, a top three-four quarterback in this league…He’s such a good thrower of the football,” Cosell said Friday on the Ross Tucker Podcast.

In his first year last season, Love threw for over 4,100 yards and finished second in the NFL in touchdown passes (32).
This season, despite missing two games due to injury, he is tied for second in the league in touchdown passes with 12.
He also knows how to spread the ball around and get everyone involved.
In last Sunday’s dominant win over the Arizona Cardinals, the former Utah State quarterback found nine different receivers and targeted 10 in total.
He also threw for over 250 yards and four touchdowns.
With the way Green Bay is running the football through the first six games (1,003 yards; second-most in the league), this offense looks to be in business for the foreseeable future.
This week, Love and the Packers will welcome in the Houston Texans and Pro Bowl quarterback C.J. Stroud in a possible Super Bowl preview.
