Speaker 1: Hi everyone, Welcome to Packers Unscripted from Packers dot Com.
Speaker 1: I am Mike Spofford sitting next to my partner in crime,
Speaker 1: Wes Hodkowitz. Were coming to you here from our studios
Speaker 1: at lambeau Field West. Were another day closer to Packers
Speaker 1: forty Niners Sunday Night football from Levi Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
Speaker 1: A clash of NFC Titans, you might say for Week twelve,
Speaker 1: a lot to be, a lot to be sorted out yet.
Speaker 1: But one of these storylines that's been interesting to follow
Speaker 1: as we lead up to this big matchup, and it's
Speaker 1: a first in the sense of Matt Lafleur's first year
Speaker 1: as head coach and where he is in his career,
Speaker 1: and that is that his counterpart on the other sideline
Speaker 1: is someone that he goes back a long way with,
Speaker 1: and I'm talking about Kyle Shanahan, the head coach of
Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty Niners, And you posted a story
Speaker 1: on our website with regard to their connection and when
Speaker 1: it started and how far back it goes and how
Speaker 1: it's evolved. So why don't you give us the rundown
Speaker 1: on the background between La Fleur and Shannon. Well, this
Speaker 1: is what's fun about you know life, right, the small
Speaker 1: circles we all run in the six degrees of separation.
Speaker 1: You know, I can tell you one story here at
Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers. My good friend Nick Goddard, the
Speaker 1: best man in my wedding, works in the Packers video department.
Speaker 1: Now I worked for him when he was a manager
Speaker 1: at Hey. I don't even know if I could say
Speaker 1: the fast food chain restaurant. I'm not sure for allowed
Speaker 1: to or not, but we worked the other when I
Speaker 1: was fifteen, sixteen years old in Green Bay, Wisconsin. You
Speaker 1: follow your path, we both end up with the Green
Speaker 1: Bay Packers, the old teenage fast food job, old teenage
Speaker 1: fast food job. You and I have both been there.
Speaker 1: And it's funny because even though these are the best,
Speaker 1: you know jobs in the NFL, the biggest you know
Speaker 1: spots and professional football, everybody has those same kind of stories, right,
Speaker 1: And you look at Kyle Shanahan and Matt la Floor.
Speaker 1: These guys go back to two thousand and eight together
Speaker 1: when Shanahan was an offensive coordinator for Gary Kubiak, who
Speaker 1: was spoiler alert, an actual disciple of Mike Shanahan Kyle's
Speaker 1: father with the Denver Broncos and they were looking for
Speaker 1: an offensive quality control assistant. Robert Sala, the defensive quality
Speaker 1: control assistant who happened to be college roommates and g
Speaker 1: a with Matt Lafleur at Central Michigan in two thousand four,
Speaker 1: ends up opening up that door. And it was remarkable
Speaker 1: when Shanahan was speaking to the Green Bay Reporters on
Speaker 1: his conference called Wednesday Afternoon. You know I wrote that
Speaker 1: story back in January, documenting Lafleur's rise. I don't know
Speaker 1: if I ever fully paused enough to appreciate how he
Speaker 1: was a quality control assistant for two years with the
Speaker 1: Houston Texans prior to becoming an NFL quarterbacks coach. I
Speaker 1: mean that jump that he made in Shanahan's said it.
Speaker 1: He's like when he decided to follow his dad to
Speaker 1: Washington to be his o C. He needed he wanted
Speaker 1: the floor and Kubiak wanted to keep the floor. So
Speaker 1: what did he do? He made him the QB coach
Speaker 1: brings him with him to Washington. He said he was
Speaker 1: kind of overseeing him that first year, but it didn't
Speaker 1: take long to figure out that this guy could handle it.
Speaker 1: He gave him that room, arguably the most important position
Speaker 1: in football, the most important position coach in football. And
Speaker 1: then they spend those three plus years together in Washington,
Speaker 1: they end up in Atlanta together, and now here we are,
Speaker 1: eleven years after those two first met, now for the
Speaker 1: first time, having this collision courses head coaches. With Shanahan
Speaker 1: leading in a nine into San Francisco forty Niners team
Speaker 1: against Matt Lafour's very resurgent Green Bay Packers at eight
Speaker 1: and two. The story doesn't get any better than that. Yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 1: And you mentioned Robert sala and the whole connection going
Speaker 1: back to Central Michigan and how he got the door
Speaker 1: open for Matt Lafleur to get into the NFL Sunday
Speaker 1: night at Levi Stadium. Matt Lafleur will be calling the
Speaker 1: offensive plays for the Green Bay Packers. Robert Salow, the
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator of the forty Niners, will be calling those
Speaker 1: defensive sets to try to counter what Matt Lafleur is
Speaker 1: doing offensively. And then to add another twist or another
Speaker 1: element to the story, the passing game coordinator for Kyle
Speaker 1: Shanahan is none other than Mike Lafleur, the younger brother
Speaker 1: of Matt Lafleur, who Matt Lafleur wanted to interview and
Speaker 1: presumably would have hired him to join him on his
Speaker 1: Green base. Don't hire him. Yeah, I'm not quite sure
Speaker 1: how that would have gone over at at Christmas and Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1: But um, but Mike Lafleur is still in San Francisco
Speaker 1: because Kyle Shanahan was not going to let him go.
Speaker 1: He's been a big part of what they've been building
Speaker 1: offensively with these running backs with Jimmy Garoppolo, and Kyle
Speaker 1: Shanahan said on the conference call with Green Bay Media
Speaker 1: he plans to have Mike Lafleur with him until michaela
Speaker 1: Fleur becomes a head coach himself. Yeah, and it was funny.
Speaker 1: And again this is a topic that Shanahan had to
Speaker 1: tackle at the combine. I think he was even asked
Speaker 1: about at the owners meetings in March, to be honest
Speaker 1: with you, and both times he said yeah, I mean no,
Speaker 1: I mean I was I wasn't letting him walk out
Speaker 1: of the door. He thinks really highly and Mike as
Speaker 1: he does Matt, and he he was asked by Matt
Speaker 1: Sneidman from the Athletic and Green Bay here about if
Speaker 1: he felt guilty, if he felt bad at I'll not
Speaker 1: be able to do it, And he said no, I
Speaker 1: looked very much forward to saying no to that request
Speaker 1: when Matt pushed that through. Yeah, if you want to
Speaker 1: know how cutthroat the business of coaching and winning football
Speaker 1: games is in the NFL, there you go. He did
Speaker 1: not feel badly at all for not letting the brothers
Speaker 1: reunite in Green And he said a couple of times
Speaker 1: like if they pushed hard enough, maybe he would have
Speaker 1: been okay with it, But then he always comes back
Speaker 1: with probably not. And you know what, you can't lie.
Speaker 1: I mean, Mike, you look at what they've done this season.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's been a secret that San Francisco has
Speaker 1: just been able to unleash here and the mega rebuild
Speaker 1: that Shanahan has put that organization through. Remember where they
Speaker 1: were in two thousands six team and when he was
Speaker 1: hired and the they had to find a quarterback, they
Speaker 1: had to reinvent the defense, they had to find some
Speaker 1: playmakers offensively. Yeah, they were at that point. They were
Speaker 1: a long way from that forty Niners team in the
Speaker 1: early part of this decade that went to three straight
Speaker 1: NFC Championship games, went to a Super Bowl that the
Speaker 1: roster had practically been gutted essentially from what that team was. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so they had a big job ahead of them. And
Speaker 1: the thing I like about it. You talked about Sala,
Speaker 1: You talk about you know Adam Stanovich, who's now the
Speaker 1: offensive line coach for Green Bay. He was the assistant
Speaker 1: last year at the Fort. You know, those are tough times.
Speaker 1: And he jokes now with La Fleur about how you
Speaker 1: know it took him until week nine of his first
Speaker 1: year as a head coach to win a game, La Fleur,
Speaker 1: It took him one the opener against Chicago. But there's
Speaker 1: a lot of times that those coaches, they'll panic, they'll
Speaker 1: make changes, they'll do things abruptly. Shanahan did not do that.
Speaker 1: He knew from the beginning when he became a head
Speaker 1: coach he wanted Solid to be his defensive coordinator. Salo
Speaker 1: had been in Jacksonville. Incidentally enough, with Nathaniel Hackett, who's
Speaker 1: now the offensive corner for Green Bay. He had been
Speaker 1: a linebackers coach there. He brings him in. Shanahan wanted
Speaker 1: to have him as his d C. He found you know,
Speaker 1: he brought up uh, Matt's younger brother. And here they
Speaker 1: are now being able to, you know, lay claim at
Speaker 1: least for one more week here that they're the number
Speaker 1: one team in the NFC. And I just think there
Speaker 1: are so many ties to this, and you can tell
Speaker 1: Shannahan and the Floor do not want this to be
Speaker 1: about them, but you do have to step back and
Speaker 1: appreciate when these guys that are kind of climbed that
Speaker 1: tree to get to where they are right now. Every
Speaker 1: once in a while you got to step back and
Speaker 1: look at it and appreciate for it for what it is.
Speaker 1: Because there's gonna be a lot of friends competing against
Speaker 1: one another. And I think to me, it reminds you
Speaker 1: a lot of just playing with your buddies in the
Speaker 1: backyard or you know, you know, getting out the chess
Speaker 1: board and having some fun. I mean, it's just it's
Speaker 1: that type of challenge that those two pushed each other
Speaker 1: when they were younger coaches, and they're gonna push each
Speaker 1: other against Sunday night for the better team to win. Well,
Speaker 1: here's an interesting one to throw at you because with
Speaker 1: Matt lie Fleur obviously getting off to a great start
Speaker 1: in Green Bay with what the San Francisco forty Niners
Speaker 1: are doing this year. And Kyle Shanahan obviously believes that
Speaker 1: Mike Lafleur has head coach a head coach title in
Speaker 1: his future. Are we going to be talking one of
Speaker 1: these days on Packers unscripted about Matt Lafleur versus Mike Lafleur,
Speaker 1: two head coaches in the NFL, Brothers going ahead to
Speaker 1: head that you know, uh, the harbaugh Um clash redo
Speaker 1: with with a couple of brothers. Yeah, you and I
Speaker 1: talking in the pre production meeting about how often this
Speaker 1: has actually happened before. Other than the hardballs, we couldn't
Speaker 1: come up with anything else. And as far as head
Speaker 1: coach is going toe to toe against each other, and
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what we'll have to see. Obviously, both
Speaker 1: those guys are very young. Matt just touch forty. I
Speaker 1: don't even Mike. I think maybe it's thirty seven. I mean,
Speaker 1: like they are young and their coaching professional. It's probably
Speaker 1: a testament to both their their work ethic. And as
Speaker 1: Shanahan said too, I mean none of this comes as
Speaker 1: a surprise when he looks at what Matt has done,
Speaker 1: you know. He he compared it a lot to what
Speaker 1: they did with Matt Ryan and at Anna. You have
Speaker 1: an m v P quarterback, you have one of the
Speaker 1: top quarterbacks the NFL. Those guys are going to be successful.
Speaker 1: But finding a way to utilize your scheme to maximize
Speaker 1: that player in the other ten offensive players on the
Speaker 1: field with him, this is not a surprise. He was
Speaker 1: very proud, and he said he's pulling for him. He's
Speaker 1: just not pulling for him too hard, considering they both
Speaker 1: share the same conference and ultimately the same goal. Yeah. Absolutely, Well,
Speaker 1: quickly here West, before I forget select, Cousin Subs locations
Speaker 1: are now offering delivery. Whether you're ordering catering or your
Speaker 1: favorite sub, they're delivering right to you when you order
Speaker 1: online at Cousin Subs dot com. Cousin Subs. We believe
Speaker 1: in better. Okay. On yesterday's show, we talked quite a
Speaker 1: bit about the forty Niners and particularly that defense, a
Speaker 1: defense that's wrapped up thirty nine sacks, a defense that's
Speaker 1: third in the NFL with twenty two takeaways. I posted
Speaker 1: a story late on Wednesday just looking at this matchup
Speaker 1: of the Packers offense against the forty Niners defense, and
Speaker 1: aside from the obvious, which is to protect Aaron Rodgers
Speaker 1: and protect the football, when I talk about those sack
Speaker 1: and take away stats, I think an interesting thing going
Speaker 1: into this game is the way we've seen this Packers
Speaker 1: offense evolved. They had to survive for a month without
Speaker 1: Davante Adams. They've found a nice balance between Aaron Jones
Speaker 1: and Jamal Williams in the backfield. We've seen other guys emerge.
Speaker 1: We've seen Alan Lazard makes some plays. We've seen Jimmy
Speaker 1: Graham makes some significant contributions along the way. It just
Speaker 1: has this feeling, and especially with the Packers coming off
Speaker 1: of a bye week where the coaches have reviewed the film,
Speaker 1: they've had a chance to reset. You know, maybe there
Speaker 1: are gonna be some new things, some new wrinkles that
Speaker 1: will get thrown in. It just seems like one of
Speaker 1: these games where somebody is going to emerge from the
Speaker 1: shadows for the Packers offensively, if they're to come out
Speaker 1: victorious in this game, There's going to be a storyline
Speaker 1: late Sunday night from the locker room when we're working
Speaker 1: on our stuff on the plane on the flight home.
Speaker 1: A storyline that we're not talking about right now, that's
Speaker 1: going to be a storyline in this game. I'm curious
Speaker 1: if you have any gut feeling as to what direction
Speaker 1: this might go. Mason Crosby three carries for thirty five yards.
Speaker 1: That's my prediction. Now, Hey, the thing I was joking
Speaker 1: about earlier in addition to that is that, I mean,
Speaker 1: would it be something if it's Danny vitally? Because all
Speaker 1: week long the narrative and I even talked if I
Speaker 1: tell you about this this week, I mean, Kyle Uschek
Speaker 1: is considered the guy at that position right now, the
Speaker 1: ultra fullback. Yeah, if I tell even called him the
Speaker 1: fullback go, and he has so much respect for him,
Speaker 1: and he's been just a perfect fit for what Shanahan does.
Speaker 1: If there'd be any way that floor could out Shanahan
Speaker 1: Shanahan with the fullback position, that would be incredible. That'd
Speaker 1: be something really would be really fun to watch. But
Speaker 1: you'd have fun writing about that on the plane on
Speaker 1: the way home. That something else? Yeah, No, But I mean,
Speaker 1: who doesn't love a good fullback catch? But you know,
Speaker 1: here's the thing that's been beautiful about this offense, and
Speaker 1: I think you know, you see, although those two offensive
Speaker 1: schemes have gradually evolved, uh, you know, from what the
Speaker 1: Floor does and what Shanahan likes to do, there is
Speaker 1: a similarity there with how they utilize their personnel. I
Speaker 1: would argue the Packers probably have a few more established
Speaker 1: playmakers in terms of just the league wide notoriety right
Speaker 1: now with Davante Adams and the peak of his you know,
Speaker 1: his profession, you know, and Aaron Jones and Jamal Williams.
Speaker 1: But they can get multiple and they can get contributions
Speaker 1: from across the board from any number of skill position players.
Speaker 1: Certainly for the forty Niners, that guy has been George Kittle.
Speaker 1: We'll see what his availability looks like this week. But
Speaker 1: in Green Bay, it's no longer that two thousand fourteen. Okay,
Speaker 1: you're gonna see Jordy Nelson, you're gonna see Davante Adams,
Speaker 1: and you're gonna see Randall Cobb. And that's going to
Speaker 1: be the unit that plays sixty snaps plus together each game.
Speaker 1: They're gonna mix and match personnel, and I think, if
Speaker 1: you want to credit, you know, the Floor for anything
Speaker 1: in terms of what his scheme has brought to Green Bay.
Speaker 1: It's that multiplicity. It's being able to use those many
Speaker 1: different personnel combinations to not only work a you know
Speaker 1: where down a defense, but also get the most out
Speaker 1: of those players. So, yes, you're absolutely right, someone needs
Speaker 1: to step up, someone needs to emerge in this game.
Speaker 1: But the beautiful thing is, for Green Bay, you just
Speaker 1: don't even know who that's going to be, right. I
Speaker 1: think that's what makes this matchup so in intriguing. Obviously,
Speaker 1: the stakes and everything with these two teams being at
Speaker 1: the top of the NFC, the Packers coming off of
Speaker 1: the bye week. You just look at statistically some of
Speaker 1: the things that you would not believe to be true
Speaker 1: for a Packers team that's eight in too. Davante Adams
Speaker 1: does not have a touchdown reception yet, coming off of
Speaker 1: three consecutive double digit touchdown seasons. Who is leading the
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers in touchdown receptions from Aaron Rodgers. It's
Speaker 1: a running back and it's not Aaron Jones. It's Jamal Williams.
Speaker 1: He's got five. That's more than anybody else. We haven't
Speaker 1: seen Marcedes Lewis catch a touchdown pass yet in a
Speaker 1: Green Bay uniform. You mentioned vitality as a possibility. Maybe
Speaker 1: you know, we've we've seen some plays with him, but
Speaker 1: then other other games he's not necessarily a big part
Speaker 1: of the game plan. Marquis Veldez Scantling. He's got five
Speaker 1: past receptions of forty plus yards this season. He has
Speaker 1: nine in his career essentially one and a half years
Speaker 1: in the NFL. But he's been playing through some knee
Speaker 1: and ankle injuries. He only has one catch in the
Speaker 1: last three games. So is he suddenly going to re
Speaker 1: emerge and become the big play guy in this offense?
Speaker 1: So there are a lot of possibilities. And I think
Speaker 1: what Matt Lafleur really likes about his team and what
Speaker 1: he likes about this offense is they've found different ways
Speaker 1: and different guys to get the job done. And I
Speaker 1: think Aaron Rodgers likes that as well, because it makes
Speaker 1: the Packers, you know, not not the most predictable offense
Speaker 1: in the world. Absolutely, and even if you want to
Speaker 1: even take it to another level, Mike, I mean Big
Speaker 1: Bob Tanyan's baby boy, Robert Jr. He's also a full
Speaker 1: participant in Wednesday's practice, hopefully for him being able to
Speaker 1: return after a month and a half layoff from that
Speaker 1: hip injury. Sure, Jay Sternberger played twelve snaps before the
Speaker 1: by He looked pretty good in past protection and what
Speaker 1: some of the blocking the assignments he was asked to do.
Speaker 1: They want to be able to throw the kitchen sink
Speaker 1: at you. That's when this offense is at its best.
Speaker 1: And be honest with you, both of these offenses are
Speaker 1: at their best. My biggest takeaway though, listening to Rodgers
Speaker 1: at his locker on Wednesday, the parson that I was
Speaker 1: there for was him discussing how when you look at
Speaker 1: al Lazard, when you look at Geronto Allison, former undrafted
Speaker 1: free agents, they came through the door and that was
Speaker 1: not too big for them. None of this was too
Speaker 1: big from And that's an easy thing to say, becomes
Speaker 1: cliche at times, but you kind of remember these are
Speaker 1: undrafted guys. You know Kumro coming from Whitewater, Toronto, Ellis
Speaker 1: didn't play a lot in college between his community college
Speaker 1: and then going to Illinois. And then you have Lazard,
Speaker 1: who was a record breaking huge receiver at Iowa State,
Speaker 1: but then he's on a practice squad for a year
Speaker 1: with the Jaguars to see those guys come in and
Speaker 1: just fill those roles and look at it like any
Speaker 1: other game, any other quarterback, and be able to fulfill
Speaker 1: their their assignments. Yes, it hasn't been one guy that's
Speaker 1: catching seven, seven hundred yards and fifty passes, but the
Speaker 1: group of that has been what's complimented this offense and
Speaker 1: that's why the Packers have had success. Yeah, and maybe
Speaker 1: maybe the guy to keep an eye on in this game.
Speaker 1: Quite frankly, as Alan Lazar John Coon pointed out in
Speaker 1: our three Things video yesterday, Alan Lazard leads the Packers
Speaker 1: offense in targeted passes over the last five games. You know,
Speaker 1: obviously Davantae Adams has only been back for a couple
Speaker 1: of those, but Alan's Art is the leader in that category.
Speaker 1: You go back to the to the l A game
Speaker 1: against the Chargers, not that we want to relive um
Speaker 1: all the downs of that, but the Packers were getting
Speaker 1: nothing going, nothing was working. And then when they finally
Speaker 1: did in the fourth quarter and put together a touchdown drive,
Speaker 1: who was the guy who came off the bench and
Speaker 1: started moving the chains. It was Alan waz Art. He
Speaker 1: came off the bench, the ball was going his way,
Speaker 1: the Packers got something going there, so you wonder, um,
Speaker 1: you know, coming off the bye week here, if um,
Speaker 1: if Alan Lazard is is potentially a guy to keep
Speaker 1: an eye on. But again, as we've been saying, it
Speaker 1: could be any number of guys who might emerge, you know,
Speaker 1: be that someone different that Aaron Rodgers talked about it
Speaker 1: as locker that makes a difference in this game. Well.
Speaker 1: And and the other thing too that I want to
Speaker 1: go back to. You mentioned Davante Adams and the fact
Speaker 1: that he doesn't have the touchdown catch this year. But
Speaker 1: you can tell me to go to hell, Michigan with
Speaker 1: this if you need me to. But I I personally
Speaker 1: believe within the red area this year, the Packers have
Speaker 1: been just so much better with their utilization of the
Speaker 1: running backs. As you mentioned, Jamal Williams has five touchdown catches.
Speaker 1: How many times has Aaron Jones been able to punch
Speaker 1: something in the end zone from thirteen fourteen yards out?
Speaker 1: This year, they've been so much more efficient in there.
Speaker 1: There seems like so many times in recent years where
Speaker 1: it'd be like, you know, since maybe that Eddie Lacey era,
Speaker 1: you know, at the end of that fourteen season where
Speaker 1: he was pretty dominant where they've just been getting inside
Speaker 1: the twenty. We gotta find a way to get the
Speaker 1: ball to Davante Adams or Randall Cobb, and if that
Speaker 1: doesn't happen, you're gonna have to sell for a field goal.
Speaker 1: It's not like that right now. Yeah. The best the
Speaker 1: best teams, the best teams in the red zone consistently
Speaker 1: over the long haul, over a sixteen game season and playoffs.
Speaker 1: The best teams in the red zone are the ones
Speaker 1: who can run the ball in the red zone that
Speaker 1: you know the safeties aren't playing yards deep. You get
Speaker 1: in the red zone, everything is a little bit tighter,
Speaker 1: but you can still run the ball. You can still
Speaker 1: kind of punch a team in the mouth, get yourself
Speaker 1: into good down and distant situations on second and third down,
Speaker 1: and then open up the playbook. And that's because you
Speaker 1: can run the ball in some tight quarters. And you've seen,
Speaker 1: I mean you want you talked about vitally Vitalis wheel
Speaker 1: Road a month ago. You know, being able to put
Speaker 1: that out there and get down to the one yard
Speaker 1: line when you get that stuff on film. Those are
Speaker 1: all things that defense corners have taken into account. Jimmy
Speaker 1: Graham's couple of touchdown catches this year. Just being able
Speaker 1: to have that many options, Packers have been I want
Speaker 1: to see that the second team in the league right now,
Speaker 1: or maybe third in terms of red zone offense and
Speaker 1: efficiency in producing touchdowns. That has not been something they've
Speaker 1: done well over the years, at least the recent years.
Speaker 1: That's been a turnaround this year. So regardless of whether
Speaker 1: or not it's Stavant Adams or not. And I guarantee
Speaker 1: you see, if you gave him six games, he's gonna
Speaker 1: get you some touchdown catches. But even last week, Mike
Speaker 1: thirty five yard catches twice, both of those ended up
Speaker 1: leading to touchdown drives at Aaron Jones ended up scoring on.
Speaker 1: That's what matters. That's what they want to accomplish this season,
Speaker 1: and right now the Packers have it all in front
Speaker 1: of them. Yeah, and when you look again, just looking
Speaker 1: at how you never know what's going to happen. Aaron
Speaker 1: Jones has that big game as a wide receiver in
Speaker 1: Kansas City. The last two games, he's caught one pass
Speaker 1: for negative one yard. So does you know, does that
Speaker 1: suddenly shift back to being an offensive focus where Aaron
Speaker 1: Jones can make some things happen in the passing game.
Speaker 1: You just don't know necessarily where this is going to go.
Speaker 1: And everyone talks about McVeigh, and again credit to him
Speaker 1: for a lot of the principles he brought in and
Speaker 1: some of the things that have been pushed to the
Speaker 1: forefront here the league the last two years. But this
Speaker 1: is the thing that Bill Belichick has just dominated with
Speaker 1: in the league over the last ten years. Match up
Speaker 1: based problems and being able to use your personnel in
Speaker 1: different types of situations, looking at your entire depth chart
Speaker 1: and seeing if there's a way that you can execute.
Speaker 1: Lafleur has been phenomenal with that so far, and it's
Speaker 1: one of the reasons why the Packers sit at eight
Speaker 1: and two going into this very big matchup. And it's
Speaker 1: why we call this a week to week league because
Speaker 1: that it really is what it is. But with that
Speaker 1: we will call a wrap on this edition of Packers Unscripted.
