Packers Secure LaFleur with Surprising Contract Extension—What’s Next for the Team?
Green Bay has missed the playoffs only once under LaFleur, who has a regular-season record of 76-40-1 (.654). The only active coaches with better winning percentages over a minimum of 50 games are Philadelphia’s Nick Sirianni (.694), the Los Angeles Chargers’ Jim Harbaugh (.679) and Buffalo’s Sean McDermott (.662).
But LaFleur hasn’t been able to get the Packers to a Super Bowl. Green Bay won its last title in the 2010 season and hasn’t played in the Super Bowl since.
LaFleur’s future was in doubt after Packers’ wild-card loss to the Bears, in which they led 21-3 at halftime and 21-6 through three quarters. Green Bay went 9-8-1 and finished with five straight losses, although LaFleur rested his starters in the meaningless regular-season finale.
