The Green Bay Packers are officially back, and the rest of the NFC is on notice. The Packers sit at 6-1 and atop the NFC North division, thanks in no small part to a resurgence from Aaron Rodgers in recent weeks.
But as we have discussed at APC in depth, there’s more to the team’s hot start than just Rodgers’ play. The defense is playing at a high level, forcing turnovers and getting big stops in the red zone. And the running game is contributing as well.
Ultimately, it all starts at the top, with head coach Matt LaFleur.
