Thursday Cheese Curds: Packers have no shakedown period under Matt LaFleur

When a team hires a new head coach, there’s usually an adjustment period and often times the first season is written off unless a team absolutely struggles and somehow got even worse.

There will be no such thing for the Green Bay Packers under rookie head coach Matt LaFleur.

When you have a generational quarterback, such luxuries cannot be afforded. This isn’t to say LaFleur could lose his job after one season (barring a bigger disaster than 2018, which seems almost unfathomable as long as Aaron Rodgers starts), but the expectations in Green Bay have been clears for the past 20-plus years and that is to contend for and win world championships.
