If there was any concern about the Green Bay Packers being complacent entering the playoffs, that concern can safely be discarded.
After the 37-30 loss yesterday to the Detroit Lions, Packers head coach Matt LaFleur was clearly unhappy following the loss.
A good chunk of his ire was directed towards his defense after the Lions razzle dazzled them all the way back to the 1920s with all sorts of reverses and trick plays. That’s definitely something the Packers didn’t want to put on tape with the playoffs approaching.
In terms of the game, most starters only played the first half and Aaron Rodgers put an exclamation point on a likely fourth NFL MVP award with a beautiful touchdown pass to Allen Lazard to close out the regular season.
