2024 Weekly Report Card: Matt LaFleur

I didn't give him an F, I gave him a D- because they won. If they would have lost, it would have been an F. Better play calling in goal to go situations they would have put a 30 burger up and this game would have been a 2 score victory.

Ok

I think a more reasonable number is you get that TD instead of an INT. 27 points would’ve been good against Chicago on the Road.

Defense should’ve allowed 15 points (FG instead of TD) or 12 something like that.

There’s your 2-score game

I get what you are saying, but they had 2 goal to go possessions that they can away with 0 points. That Interception gave the Bears some confidence, which they only had 3 points up until that point.

On a totally different game changing point, Jaire reaggravating that injury put the Packers in more zone coverage, vs man and I think that helped CW.

I understand him being aggressive and I’m not as tiffed about that. But yeah 4th and more than 3 and you take the points 17-19

Nah. MLF was playing chess. He knew the defense was struggling. If we had kicked the FG, then after our late TD the Bears would have been forced to go for a TD. Knowing Santos has a reputation as a low-trajectory kicker, he figured our chances of blocking a FG were better than keeping them out of the end zone after losing JA. And the Bears took the bait. See? He was playing chess.

Oh I see. He must be really good at Geometric equations. I wonder if he has one of those old fashioned compass and protractor sets. Maybe some old fashioned chart paper to record his findings? Don’t mess with a man’s Protractor! Especially when he looks agitated like he did today!
