Packers rally falls flat in Jordan Love's return as Sam Darnold leads Vikings to 4-0

Jordan Love's return to the field on Sunday was a welcome sight in Green Bay.

But it wasn't enough to overcome the red-hot Minnesota Vikings.

The Vikings jumped out to a 28-0 first-half lead at Lambeau Field, then held on for a 31-29 win over the Packers. The Vikings are now 4-0 with Sam Darnold at quarterback and in early control of the NFC North.

The Packers fell to 2-2 as Love showed signs of rust in his first action since suffering a sprained MCL in Week 1. He threw two first-half interceptions, both of which the Vikings converted to touchdowns en route to the 28-0 lead.
