The Incredible Choking Packers

I agree with many of my APC brethren that there is not a clear upgrade from Matt LaFleur out there at the moment, and that bringing him back is probably, objectively, the correct thing to do. However, I’m also getting pretty sick of the Green Bay Packers playing like losers. LaFleur is a great play […]

No, this time […]

Draft and develop requires the develop part too

As the Green Bay Packers are negotiating with head coach Matt LaFleur for what seems to be a rather inevitable extension, I find myself increasingly annoyed by the organization.
