GREEN BAY — Matt LaFleur hasn’t seen anything quite like this. Unless those nearly-impossible-to-find stats from the Green Bay Packers coach’s early 2000s professional playing days with the Omaha Beef and the Billings Outlaws contain a level of turnover avoidance not normally seen in low-level indoor football leagues.
From his college quarterbacking days at Saginaw Valley State, to his collegiate coaching gigs at Central Michigan, Northern Michigan and Ashland (Ohio), to his stops as an NFL assistant with the Houston Texans, Washington Football Team, Atlanta Falcons, Los Angeles Rams and Tennessee Titans, LaFleur hasn’t been part of an offense that has protected the football as well as his Packers have so far this season.
