1. Jordan Love, Packers

This is quite difficult to admit, but Jordan Love was the best quarterback in the division this past week. He came out and did more than what he had to do in order to not just win the game against the Bears, but do it in dominating fashion.

Love only completed 15 passes on 27 attempts, but passed for 245 yards and three touchdowns. He threw the ball with conviction, anticipation and plenty of zip. I hate to say it, but Love looked good. Sure, Bears safety Jaquan Brisker did say he wasn't too impressed and felt the defense was more to blame than Love deserved credit.

But, the fact of the matter is, Love took exactly what the Bears gave him and put up a fantastic game in the start of his new era in Green Bay. It was disheartening to watch yet another Packers quarterback come into Soldier Field and light it up, resulting in a Bears defeat. But, it is what it is. The Bears now have to figure out a way to come back from seeing Love torch them, en route to a one-sided victory.

Next week, the Packers take on Desmond Ridder, Bijan Robinson and the Falcons who are also 1-0. If Love continues to play this well, he'll find himself atop these rankings once again, sadly.
