In some 2-minute situations in the past, Jordan Love tried too hard to be the hero. The Green Bay Packers’ 2023 season ended in the playoffs at San Francisco when the quarterback tossed an ill-advised, cross-body throw into the hands of a defender. But against the Houston Texans on Sunday, the second-year starter played some…
The Green Bay Packers entered Sunday’s game against the Texans an NFL-best plus-9 in turnovers.

The New York Jets lost their third straight game last week against the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football.
