Packers’ Matt LaFleur one of most aggressive coaches on fourth downs in 2022

The Green Bay Packers offense under Matt LaFleur in 2022 was one of the most aggressive when it came to going for it on fourth downs.

According to Football Outsiders Aggressive Index, LaFleur ranked as the fifth-most aggressive head coach on applicable fourth-down situations last season. How this Aggressive Index works is 1.0 is considered average, and it measures how much more likely, or less likely, a coach is willing to go for it compared to his peers when in a specific situation. This metric also excludes certain obvious go-for-it situations, such as when a team is trailing late in a game, in the final five minutes of a game, or just seconds before halftime.
