Everything that has gone wrong around Packers QB Jordan Love through 5 games

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love has not been particularly good through his first five games as the franchise’s new starter, but situation absolutely matters and it’s worth examining all the things that have gone wrong around him to open the 2023 season.

Broadly speaking, little has gone to plan for the Packers offense without even mentioning Love. Specifically, foundational pieces are injured or not working or some combination of the two.

Love has been an inaccurate thrower of the football. He hasn’t dominated from clean pockets. He’s struggled to operate under pressure. And the negative plays — specifically turnovers — are starting to pile up as the pressure has increased. Love must play better coming out of the bye week. But the situation around him must also improve drastically.

It would be easy to call these “excuses,” but extenuating circumstances are certainly in play for Jordan Love. Here’s a look at everything that has crumbled around him through five games.
