While at Super Bowl LVIII Radio Row this week, Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love ranked the toughest defenses he faced this season.
The Kansas City Chiefs claimed the No. 1 spot on Love’s list. That’s not a huge surprise considering Steve Spagnuolo’s defense finished the regular season ranked second in yards allowed and sacks.
Love ranked the Minnesota Vikings second despite throwing for 256 yards and three touchdowns against them on Dec. 31. The San Francisco 49ers, meanwhile, ranked third out of all the defenses he saw this season.
Even though Love said the Chiefs had the best defense he faced this season, he told Dan Patrick on Friday that he’d like another shot at the 49ers.
“Being a competitor I’d like to see that #Niners team to be able to prove that we can beat them,” Love said.

Love finished his season as Green Bay’s full-time starter with 4,159 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.
If the Packers can build off their late-season success, they could be legitimate Super Bowl contenders next year.
