As the Green Bay Packers prepare for their Week 18 showdown against the Chicago Bears, a lot of people around the league are taking notice of Jordan Love. Over the last few weeks, Love has been nearly unstoppable. One player that hasn’t been lost when it comes to how good Love has been is former Packers’ superstar Aaron Rodgers.
Throughout the course of the 2023 NFL season, Rodgers has not shied away from talking about the Packers. He is clearly still a big fan of the team and has a lot of love for Love.
If the Packers win this week, they will clinch a berth in the NFL playoffs. In order for that to happen, Green Bay will need a big-time performance from Love.
Aaron Rodgers Doesn’t Hold Back On Green Bay Packers, Jordan Love
Looking ahead to this week’s game, Rodgers did not hold back from speaking out. On a clip during the Pat McAfee Show, Rodgers opened up about the Packers, Matt LaFleur, and Love.

Needless to say, it’s great to see Rodgers still holding a lot of love in his heart for the Packers. Love him or hate him, he gave Green Bay some amazing years of football.
Unlike when Brett Favre left town after being replaced by Rodgers, Love is still friends and has a fan in his predecessor. It has been clear this season that Rodgers tough Love an awful lot. The young quarterback has displayed quite a few tricks and talents that he clearly learned from Rodgers.
All of that being said, it will be interesting to see what the Packers can do this week. Love needs a big game and the defense will need to step up to slow down the surging Bears and Justin Fields.
The task may be tall, but the Packers are more than talented enough to get the job done. Hopefully, we’ll be preparing for a playoff game at this time next week.
