The Packers HC explains why he wanted to resign…

The defense gave up 34 points to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this past Sunday and let up a game-winning drive to Tommy DeVito and the New York Giants in Week 14, just when the squad looked like it was turning the wheel and flying back into the NFC Playoff picture. After both losses, the Packers’ record is now 6-8 and they are out of playoff contention. It now appears improbable that they will play a football game in the middle of January.

For the second year in a row, Green Bay is in the final stretch of the regular season completely out of desperation. However, LaFleur feels that this team does not require a major coaching change just yet, particularly because he has witnessed Barry and the present defensive players carry out the gameplan as intended.

According to The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman, LaFleur stated, “If I thought that was the best solution today, then we’d make that decision.” “Because I’ve witnessed us perform this feat previously. Although it’s sad that it occurred during this crucial game at this time of year, I’ve seen us use it in other games or earlier in the year.

In recent seasons, the Packers’ defense has consistently been a problem.

Packers coach Matt LaFleur won't fire Joe Barry, but his reason made no sense

Although Matt LaFleur is correct that Green Bay has had some strong defensive performances thus far in the season, there have been issues throughout Joe Barry’s nearly three-year tenure as DC. With the third-most rushing yards allowed in the NFL, the Packers are still vulnerable against the run. They have the fewest yards given up against opposing passing attacks, making them far more resilient, but they are suddenly losing ground at an alarming rate at the worst possible moment.

Too many basic errors are being made, even though injuries have placed a heavy strain on this defense. The Bucs are not going to win 34–20 thanks to a 52-yard touchdown ball to wide receiver David Moore on a crucial third-down. Definitely not in Week 15, when there is very little room for error.

It’s imperative that LaFleur, Barry, and the entire Packers squad iron out the wrinkles right away. The best chance they will have to achieve that crucial goal is on Christmas Eve when they go to play the Carolina Panthers.
