Can Jordan Love Right the Ship?

The biggest question the Packers must answer by the end of the season revolves around Love. Is he or isn’t he the franchise quarterback? It’s essential they get a definitive answer by Week 18.

Of course, his offensive line hasn’t helped the last two weeks, making his job even more difficult.
