The HC-QB duo of Matt LaFleur and Aaron Rodgers go hand to hand in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Ever since LaFleur’s arrival, the team has tasted a decent amount of success. The acclimation went well too. However, there was a time when the head coach had to face some harsh words from A-Rod during a play. But he also learned a lesson of trust in it.
Matt LaFleur appeared at Barstool Sports’ ‘Bussin With the Boys’ podcast and detailed a story of the QB1. The narrative indicated that his and Aaron Rodgers’ relationship opened with hard cussing. However, it also shows that the $250 Million man is a cerebral mastermind and is totally into the game.

A-Rod will spare no one!
Matt LaFleur mentioned, “We were playing Detroit, and they showed an all-out pressure look. I’m watching the play clock and it’s five, four, three. Mind you, he’s talking to [Robert] Tonyan. He’s having a conversation with Tonyan, and I’m thinking there’s no way he is going to get this ball snapped.” The HC adds, “He’s telling him what to do, and as the clock is hitting zero, he gets the ball snapped, and it’s probably going to be a walk-in touchdown. I don’t think he’s going to get the playoff, so I pop a timeout right before the snap. And he’s like, ‘GOD DAMNIT, MATT.’ It was a great lesson for me in terms of trust. He’s so aware of everything that’s going on, and he’ll get the job done.”

The Green Bay Packers are tuning up the band for the regular season. The locker room leader had to deliver some words of wisdom. But an unapologetic Aaron Rodgers did so at the expense of the team’s NFC Rivals. Matt Schneidman revealed the remarks on Twitter.
Aaron Rodgers in the locker room today:
"All the other teams in the NFC North, it seems like every single year, I think their fanbase and their teams feel like, 'This is our year to win the North.'
"Hasn't really been the case during my time, for the most part."
