Jordan Love has surged into the MVP conversation, transforming what once seemed like an outside chance into a legitimate late‑season push. His recent performances have elevated both his résumé and the Green Bay Packers’ standing, prompting analysts to reassess where he belongs among the league’s top quarterbacks.
Love’s case strengthened dramatically over the past two weeks. After a four‑touchdown performance against Detroit on Thanksgiving, he followed with three more scores in a divisional win over the Chicago Bears that moved Green Bay into first place in the NFC North. His interception streak ended, but his deep‑ball accuracy shined again with another explosive touchdown that showcased his growing confidence.
According to ESPN’s Rob Demovsky, Love is one of only two quarterbacks this season with multiple touchdown throws traveling more than 40 air yards. That blend of efficiency and aggressiveness has defined his leap in 2025. He has surpassed 3,000 passing yards while maintaining one of the league’s best touchdown‑to‑interception ratios, a key benchmark for voters weighing consistency against highlight‑reel plays.
Public perception has begun to shift as well. Yahoo Sports noted his rise in MVP rankings, pointing out how his production has held steady even as the Packers worked through injuries and lineup reshuffling. Analysts who were once skeptical are now acknowledging that his command of the offense has grown each week, especially in high‑leverage moments.
ESPN’s NFL Analysis Reveals Green Bay Packers Quarterback Jordan Love’s MVP Chances
Love’s recent performance has made him a favorite to win the MVP award this season. This is detailed more in an analysis by Rob Demovsky for ESPN.
Should Jordan Love be in the MVP conversation? His chances have spiked in the past two weeks. After throwing four touchdowns in the Thanksgiving win at Detroit, Love backed it up with three more touchdowns Sunday, vaulting the Packers into first place in the NFC North. Though Love’s four-game streak without an interception ended, his deep ball was on point again. A week after a 51-yard touchdown to Christian Watson, Love hit Bo Melton for a 45-yard touchdown. Only Love and Sam Darnold (with three) have multiple touchdown passes of 40-plus air yards this season. Though Love’s passing yardage isn’t among the league leaders, he surpassed 3,000 yards with 22 touchdowns and 4 interceptions.
Betting markets have responded accordingly. Love’s odds, which ballooned earlier in the season after back‑to‑back losses, have tightened as Green Bay’s offense improved and his efficiency climbed. With the Packers pushing toward a division title and a possible top playoff seed, each remaining game provides another opportunity for him to strengthen his candidacy.
Love’s rise reflects both individual growth and team resilience. If he continues his current trajectory, he won’t just be in the MVP conversation. He may force voters to seriously consider him among the season’s elite.
