The Inexperienced Bay Packers had been presupposed to wrestle badly with out quarterback Jordan Love when he suffered a knee damage on the finish of the season opener. As an alternative, with Malik Willis filling in, Inexperienced Bay remade itself as an influence operating group, and one way or the other gained each of the backup’s begins. Love returned final week in opposition to the Minnesota Vikings, and regarded like a complete rollercoaster (4 touchdowns, three interceptions) in a detailed Packers loss.
Love is again below heart in opposition to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 5, and he nonetheless hasn’t settled down. Late within the second quarter with the Packers dealing with third-and-long deep in their very own territory, Love tried to make some magic occur to keep away from a security. It didn’t work out: his flailing cross was intercepted by Rams defensive again Jaylen McCollough for the simplest pick-six you’ll ever see.
Watch the play right here:
Love was moments from being down for the security when he one way or the other acquired the ball away. That labored out completely for LA, who went on high with the interception returned for a landing.
It’s straightforward to consider former Packers quarterback Brett Favre’s high-wire act that was usually good but additionally often horrible. To me, this play is extra like one thing Will Levis would do: attempting to do method, method an excessive amount of in an unwinnable scenario, and inadvertently making your self appear like a idiot within the course of.
Love will make some phenomenal performs attempting to get one thing out of nothing, however there may even be terrible outcomes. Mark this one down within the latter column.
