Quarterback Jordan Love couldn't have finished the regular season better. On Wednesday, the Green Bay Packers passer was named the NFC Offensive Player of week 18, the second consecutive week in which Love has won the award.

"The guy just comes to work every day, has a great attitude, he's one of the guys," Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said right after the Bears game. "He's really improved over the course of four years. I'm just super happy for him, he's earned it."

Jordan Love became the only offensive player in the NFC to win the award twice this year. He's also one of two players in the entire league to get it twice in a row — the other one was Cleveland Browns' kicker Dustin Hopkins in weeks 6 and 7.

Only four quarterbacks won the weekly award twice this season: Love in NFC, Buffalo Bills' Josh Allen, Baltimore Ravens' Lamar Jackson, and Houston Texans' CJ Stroud in the AFC.

Love is the first quarterback to win the Player of the Week award in consecutive games since Jalen Hurts between weeks 12 and 13 of last year. He became the fourth Packers quarterback to win the award at least twice, joining Don Majkowski (twice), Brett Favre (12 times), and Aaron Rodgers (19 times). He's also the first former Utah State quarterback to get it twice.

Against the Chicago Bears, Jordan Love had 316 passing yards, two passing touchdowns, and a 128.6 passer rating. He's had nine games with 2+ touchdown passes and no interceptions, leading the NFL in 2023.

No other Packers player won any weekly award this year.
