Barely two weeks into the 2026 professional football season, several coaches are already feeling the heat regarding their job security. Among those ranked on the hot seat is Matt LaFleur, whose Packers sit at a 1-1 record despite a rocky start.
Green Bay managed a narrow escape against the Jets in Week 2, though the performance was far from dominant. In fact, the victory made them the first squad in the Super Bowl era to triumph despite recording under 200 yards of offense, ten or more penalties, and zero turnovers.
This followed a disastrous opening week where they squandered a 22-point advantage against the Vikings, surrendering 22 unanswered points in the final quarter alone. Compounding these struggles are notable roster absences, including running back Josh Jacobs on the commissioner's exempt list and pass rusher recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament tear.
Despite these hurdles, upcoming games against the Falcons and Buccaneers present an opportunity to stabilize their record before the end of the first month.
