Packers QB Jordan Love flipped a switch according to advanced numbers

Jordan Love's midseason transformation has been well-documented. He went from a massive question mark for the Green Bay Packers – who traded away four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers in the hopes that Love was a true successor – to arguably one of best quarterbacks in the NFL.

According to Pro Football Focus, Love's transformation is inarguable. He went from a bottom-tier quarterback after the first nine games of the season to the very best quarterback in the NFL over the last nine.

Those are all extremely impressive numbers, but most important to Love's transformation has undoubtedly been his ball security.

Yes, he's fumbled a few away trying to make plays with his feet, but his interceptions have all but disappeared in the second half of the season. Going from a stretch with a 14-10 touchdown-to-interception ratio to a stretch with a 21-1 ratio is almost an unheard-of turnaround.

Most impressively, Love has been doing it in must-win games for the Packers. Including Green Bay's playoff win over the Dallas Cowboys, Love has thrown 10 touchdowns with no interceptions in the Packers' last four games.

From mid-tier (at best) to elite. Love has grown up right before our eyes.
