You would get no argument from Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur if you claimed quarterback Jordan Love was playing at an MVP level coming out of Sunday's 45-27 win over the New England Patriots.

"I would agree with that," LaFleur said when asked about Love as an MVP candidate. "He's standing in there, he's taking hits and he's still dealing the ball."

The remaining crowd at Gillette Stadium -- comprised mostly of Packers fans -- chanted "MVP! MVP!" as Love and the Packers exited the field on Sunday afternoon. And for good reason.

In a truly dominant individual performance, Love completed 23 passes for 372 yards and three touchdowns and also rushed for a touchdown, leading the Packers to an impressive win in New England over the defending AFC champs and a fifth win in the last six games overall.

The Packers are now 6-3 overall after a 1-2 start. On Sunday, Green Bay scored 45 points -- the most by an opponent at Gillette Stadium in the venue's history. Love has consistently made the Packers right offensively despite constant shuffling along the offensive line, inconsistent pass protection, drops from receivers and a non-existent run game.

"I can't say enough about the play of Jordan Love. Makes my job a hell of a lot easier," LaFleur said.

Love kept hitting deep shots, so LaFleur kept calling them. By the time Love hit Christian Watson for a 39-yard score late in the third quarter, putting the Packers up 42-14, the game was all but over.

Per Next Gen Stats, Love completed six passes thrown at least 20 yards in the air against the Patriots. He's the only quarterback in the NFL to complete at least six deep throws in a game this season, and he's done it twice.

"Those are low percentage throws, in theory, but he's making them look high percentage. They are right on the money," LaFleur said.

Love averaged 12.8 yards per attempt, his second highest in a start in his NFL career. He connected 17 times with Christian Watson and Matthew Golden for 335 of his 372 passing yards. Love has passed for over 350 yards for the third time this season and is currently the NFL's leader in passing yards. He's also produced multiple touchdowns in all nine games in 2026.

Can Love make a legit push in the MVP race? The Packers keep winning, and he keeps producing gaudy passing numbers for an offense that is so reliant on him creating explosive plays. An elite performance when a lot of eyes were on him Sunday will certainly help his case.
