GREEN BAY, Wis. – Between the end of practice and the start of his Sunday news conference, Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur watched a bit of the Minnesota Vikings’ game against the Arizona Cardinals.
“You’ll have to tell me what happens,” LaFleur said.
Only a moment earlier, Aaron Jones scored the go-ahead touchdown for the Vikings and Shaq Griffin intercepted Kyler Murray to clinch a 23-22 win for Minnesota.
“Uh,” LaFleur said. He hung his head for a moment. Only he knows if the dejection was real.
The good news: The computers say the Packers have all but locked up a playoff spot.
