Jordan Love Throws Three Interceptions In Playoff Defeat

Sunday, January 12, 8:55 PM

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love put up a lackluster performance at one of the most inopportune times during the Packers' 22-10 defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday afternoon. Love was 20-of-33 passing for 212 yards but threw three interceptions that potentially took points off the board when points were at a premium all game. The first came on a deep shot to Dontayvion, the second an ill-advised throw down the middle with Zack Baun in perfect position to make the pick. The third sealed the game late in the fourth quarter. Love also added 10 yards on two rushing attempts but overall, this was a disappointing outing. With Love entering his sixth season, Love will be a fringe starting fantasy quarterback for 2025.

Michael Penix Jr. Throws For Over 300 Yards, Tallies Three Scores In Week 18 Loss

Sunday, January 5, 5:07 PM

Atlanta Falcons rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. went 21-for-38 with 312 yards, two passing scores and an interception during their overtime loss to the Carolina Panthers. Penix added five yards and score on his lone carry. After averaging just 212.5 passing yards during the first two games of his career, Penix enjoyed a strong finish to the 2024 campaign, despite falling just short to the Panthers. The Washington product leaned on his top wideout Drake London as he threw to him 18 times. London also brought in both his touchdown passes and finished the day with 187 receiving yards. The 24-year-old has tallied four total touchdowns over his first three NFL games but sits with a 1-2 record, with both of his losses coming in overtime. Fantasy managers should expect Penix to be in the driver's seat to open as the team's starting QB in 2025.
