From the article

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love sling shots his way past a swarm of cars and into the top four with three games of 350+ passing yards. Love is coming off arguably the best quarterback performance of the year against the New England Patriots, completing just under 80 percent of his passes for 372 yards and three touchdowns while posting a QBR of 98. The deep ball is what sets Love apart from the rest of the pack. His 22 impact plays on passes 20+ yards downfield are the most in the NFL, as are his 842 passing yards.
