McAfee’s melody: Love strikes back

Move over Santa, because it’s officially the season of Love! In the last four games, Jordan Love’s completion game skyrocketed to a sweet 65%, and the Packers rode that wave to a stellar 3-1 record.

Taking to the ‘X’ social media platform, McAfee shared a snippet from the latest Pat McAfee Show, captioning it, “The Green Bay Packers and Jordan Love got a BIG TIME win over the Kansas City Chiefs #PMSLive.”
