Interceptions causing issues for Packers’ Jordan Love in his second season as a starter
Associated PressGREEN BAY, Wis. — Jordan Love’s ability to produce big plays while avoiding turnovers earned him a $220 million contract extension after leading the Green Bay Packers on a surprising playoff push in his first season as a starter. “Definitely something I’m going to make a big focus on going forward, just finding ways to take care of the ball better,” Love said after throwing his second pick-6 of the season Sunday in a 24-14 loss to the Detroit Lions. Love led Green Bay’s late-season charge last year by throwing 21 touchdown passes with only one interception in a nine-game stretch that included a 48-32 wild-card upset of Dallas. “It just comes down to staying true to my reads and when plays do go off schedule, just that fine line of being smart with the ball and not putting it in harm’s way and balance trying to make a play versus just throwing it away and live to fight another day,” Love said.
