Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers have yet another major game on the schedule for Week 14. As they try to work their way into the playoffs, they will take on the New York Giants on Monday Night Football. With the battle for playoff spots being an aggressive one in the NFC, every single game is a must-win situation.
Earlier this season, the Packers looked dead in the water. Love was struggling to find his rhythm and some even suggested that Green Bay should bench him. Instead, Green Bay kept their faith and that faith has paid off.
Over the last three games, Love has played like an MVP candidate. He has thrown for 857 yards, eight touchdowns, and no interceptions in those appearances on the road to three wins.
Packers’ Jordan Love Reveals Bold Message Before Week 14
Ahead of this week’s Monday Night Football matchup with the Giants, Love sent a very bold message about his team’s mindset.
“Every game’s a playoff game for us.”

Honestly, he’s not wrong. The NFC has seven teams fighting for the last few playoff spots. A loss in any week could be the deciding factor in missing the playoffs.
Love and company have certainly played like every game is a playoff game. Last week against the Kansas City Chiefs, no one gave them a chance to pull off the upset. Instead, they controlled the game from start to finish and ended up winning on Sunday Night Football by a final score of 27-19.
After a hot streak, Monday night is the definition of a trap game for the Packers. The Giants have not been a good team this year and come into this matchup with a 4-8 record. Despite that fact, Green Bay has to stay focused and win a game that they should win handily.
It will be interesting to see what Week 14 holds for Love and the Packers. Can he put on another big-time performance? Make sure to tune in at 8:15 p.m. EST on ESPN to find out.
