Hello Wisconsin: It’s Time Matt LaFleur Gets the National Respect He Deserves

Matt LaFleur has done a remarkable job in turning this Packers team (and its offense in particular) around over the last season and a quarter. But Monday night may have been his best work yet.

Calling an offense that was without three wide receivers (including its top two) due to injury, LaFleur still managed to scheme receivers open all day long, and leaned heavily on running backs and tight ends in the passing game. Robert Tonyan had a career game as a result, and plenty of other players got involved as the Packers drove up and down the field against the Falcons.
