“…So He Generally Wins The Argument”: Green Bay Packers Head Coach Explains How Aaron Rodgers Resolves Issues Behind The Scenes

The few secrets behind quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers’ NFL regular-season success have been their head coach Matt LaFleur. He was recently discussing their recipe of success for their dominance on the football field and how he was able to extract the best of Rodgers. The reigning league MVP has played some of his best football and brought efficiency to his game.

During a recent appearance on the Rich Eisen show, LaFleur shares with Packers fans a behind-the-scenes insight into their relationship. He believes the core of their relationship has been the amount of trust, love, and respect for each other’s work. He adds that there is a special synergy and telepathic connection amongst them, which makes it easier to achieve their objectives.

While talking about how they deal with differences, LaFleur states, “Well it could be anything right it could be in terms of just how you know, you are implementing a game plan or um you know there might be a certain play that I want to run. But if he doesn’t feel comfortable with it, why would I put him in that position, so he generally wins that argument.”

Aaron Rodgers and Matt LaFleur have got their jobs for next season

The Packers, similarly to every NFL team, have begun their voluntary OTAs, but Rodgers has been skipping them in recent seasons. But the confidence and trust between him and LaFleur shine through with the latter’s cool approach to his absence. The success that Rodgers has seen after missing OTAs in recent seasons, seems to be the formula they will continue to follow.

While success in the regular season is closer to certainty, the postseason has been a period of concern and a space for doing work. The loss of star WR Davante Adams from their lineup only makes it more of a challenge for the Packers’ QB.

The goal during the 2022 NFL campaign will be to make it to Super Bowl LVII.

While the Packers fans will hope for more progress, the franchise will see this as a season to prove their credentials. Both Rodgers and LaFleur know the ever-decreasing championship window and might believe this year to be the one.
