Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur has emerged as one of the NFL’s top coaches over the past five years, boasting an impressive win percentage that hasn’t garnered him much recognition.
Critics often attributed his early success to Aaron Rodgers, but since the future Hall of Famer’s trade to the Jets, LaFleur has guided the team to victories with Jordan Love. His recent achievements have shone particularly bright, especially in the last two weeks. With Love sidelined, Malik Willis stepped in as quarterback, and despite doubts about the season, the Packers have gone 2-0 under his leadership.
This performance is leading fans to appreciate LaFleur’s coaching brilliance, positioning him as a strong candidate for Coach of the Year.
The Packers made a wise choice in hiring LaFleur, who holds a 57-28 record for a .671 winning percentage. His last two games have showcased his strategic acumen.
Against the Colts, he expertly utilized various running plays, while the game against the Titans saw him adjust the game plan to leverage Willis more effectively, resulting in a commanding win. Fans are taking note.
The official FanDuel account tweeted, “Matt LaFleur is the best coach in the NFL. Nothing you can do to change my mind.” Another fan remarked on his exceptional abilities, calling him “so stupidly good.”
One fan even claimed LaFleur has the Coach of the Year award secured, sharing a clip of a touchdown screen pass to Emmanuel Wilson. The team’s dominance extends beyond just the offense.
