Packers' Jordan Love reflects on game-sealing interception: 'Mortal sin'
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love recalled the fateful interception that ended the team’s chances of going to the NFC Championship Game on Saturday night against the San Francisco 49ers.
On the final Packers play of the game, Love moved to his right and tried to fire the ball across his body to wide receiver Christian Watson. The duck of a throw landed in the hands of 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw. There were two other 49ers in the area covering Watson as well.

“Play broke down, scrambling right. Saw Christian over the middle,” Love said. “And tried to force one into him. Thought I could make the play. Didn’t see the back side. So, really made a great play.”
He continued later, “I haven’t looked at it yet. Haven’t looked at any pictures, so. Looking back on it, yeah, throw it away. I don’t know if I had an opportunity to be able to run, maybe get out of bounds but, you know, force it across the middle late, which is a mortal sin and it cost us. So it’s something I’ll look at. That’s an area right there I’ll be able to look at, grow from, and get better in the future.”
Love had two interceptions – both to Greenlaw. The first one was tipped off the hands of tight end Tucker Craft.

Love was 21-of-34 with 194 passing yards and had two touchdown passes.
“I think it’ll sting for a while,” the Packers star said. “Watching all the games going forward, it will sting just knowing that we had an opportunity to win, and we dropped the ball on that one. It’ll sting for a while, but we’ll be able to look back on it and see some good things we did.”
Green Bay wrapped the season 9-8 and picked up a big playoff win over the Dallas Cowboys before Saturday night’s result.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
LAS VEGAS – Paul Walter Hauser is an actor who has been in “The Naked Gun,” “Blackbird,” and “Richard Jewell.” But on Friday night at Maple Leaf Pro’s first U.S. event, MLP Multiverse, there was no acting going on.
Hauser squared off against QT Marshall in a sin city street fight at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas. It was the final show of Slam Fest. The two pro wrestlers pulled out all the stops and left the ring in complete disarray.

It was a rematch of their brawl at Ring of Honor’s Death Before Dishonor event. Marshall went on the attack first, throwing in all kinds of foreign objects into the ring, including a piece of wood wrapped with barbed wire, a table, a cane, chairs and even a door was brought into the match.
Hauser was able to regain momentum in the match. He set up the barbed-wire object in the corner. Marshall countered and was trying to whip Hauser into the barbed wire. However, Hauser stopped himself. As Marshall tried to take Hauser by surprise, the movie star avoided Marshall and tossed him into the barbed wire.
Marshall was busted open, but wasn’t done. Hauser was trying to inflict more pain. He set up a table near one corner of the ring and poured thumbtacks on top of it. Marshall was able to powerbomb Hauser through the tacked table.

Recent UFC champion Carlos Ulberg says he lost title belt while celebrating the win
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
UFC champion Carlos Ulberg says he lost his championship belt that he just won after capturing the light heavyweight title at UCF 327.
He told Fox Sports Australia Monday he misplaced his golden title belt while celebrating his victory.
“I’ve lost the belt, bro,” Ulberg told FOX Sports. “Initially after winning, the plan was to not have a drink. But you know how these things go, right?” he said.
“First, someone gives you a champagne to celebrate. Then one thing leads to another, and you’re doing shots.”

The 35-year-old from New Zealand fought through a knee injury to defeat Jiri Prochazka in the main event at UFC 327 by knockout this weekend in Miami to become the new champion of the light heavyweight division.
His injury could keep him sidelined for a year, meaning he will have to give up his champion status anyway, with UCF holding an interim title fight to take his place.

But Ulberg said he’s fairly confident his belt will be found before he heads to Las Vegas to get further evaluation from doctors on his knee. He then plans to spend time at the UFC Performance Institute before returning to New Zealand to be with family.

“I didn’t want to be carrying the belt around, so I think it’s still there at the apartment somewhere. One of the boys probably has it in bed with him,” Ulberg said.
