Jordan Love struggled against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday afternoon, but afterward Matt LaFleur took the blame.

The second-year quarterback was making his first career start with Aaron Rodgers at home due to a positive COVID-19 test.

"This one falls on me, squarely," LaFleur said. "Certainly, for us to be 2-for-12 on third down, obviously didn't have a good enough plan for some of the zero pressures that they brought on us.

"But I thought our guys battled. I thought Jordan, I was really proud of the way he played. He hung in there, he was taking hits and delivering the ball. I thought he did a really good job. But I think that, ultimately, I've got to be better and this one falls squarely on me."

The Packers were in danger of being shut out for the first time in LaFleur's tenure until Love finally put together a scoring drive, hitting Allen Lazard for a 20-yard touchdown with 4 minutes, 54 seconds remaining.
