Scott Rogust of Lombardi Ave argues that Jordan Love should be considered a serious NFL MVP candidate despite the Green Bay Packers' persistent offensive struggles. Green Bay improved to 5-3 after defeating the Carolina Panthers 27-19 on Thursday night, where Love completed 30 of 41 passes for 288 yards and three touchdowns.

Rogust emphasizes that Love leads the NFL with 2,246 passing yards and 16 passing touchdowns despite extensive offensive line injuries and a rushing attack ranked 32nd in the league.
