Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur has made another mistake today disappoint to announce………
His birthday present? A chance for the first-year coach to recharge his batteries during the bye week and get prepared to lead the 8-2 Packers on a playoff push over the final six weeks of the 2019 season.
LaFleur’s first season as Packers coach has been a smashing success. He became the first coach in franchise history and the first NFL coach since Jim Harbaugh to win seven of his first eight games. Only 19 coaches in NFL history have ever started 7-1.
The Packers are now 8-2, in first place in the NFC North and in possession of the second overall seed in the conference.
