Making a Case: Matt Lafleur deserves Coach of the Year consideration

Every year, various publications release their own NFL awards, recognizing outstanding play and performance around the league. Of these agencies and publications, the NFL recognizes the selections of The Associated Press (AP) when officially naming their winners each year. For the most part, we know how it goes. MVP has turned into the “quarterback of the year” award. Offensive Player of the Year has turned into the “should probably be the real MVP” award. Coach of the Year usually goes to a head coach who kept their team competitive despite injuries, player departures, strength of schedule, etc. If this is indeed the criteria for this award, why aren’t more people talking about Green Bay Packers HC Matt LaFleur?
