Good, bad and ugly from Packers’ 18-17 win over Saints

The Green Bay Packers gave up a punt return touchdown and eventually fell behind 17-0 through three quarters against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, but Jordan Love’s dramatics and an inspired effort from the Packers defense combined to create a memorable final 15 minutes in which Love led three straight scoring drives and the Packers escaped with an 18-17 victory at Lambeau Field.

The Packers are now 2-1 after blowing a 12-point lead last week in Atlanta and coming from behind to stun the Saints on Sunday.

Here’s the good, the bad and the ugly from the Packers’ 18-17 win over the Saints in Week 3:
