Packers' Matt LaFleur should be feeling some heat amid sloppiness, ugly 1-1 start

Matt LaFleur faces mounting questions following a dismal performance in Week 2, despite his squad managing a 20-17 overtime victory against the New York Jets. Green Bay became the first franchise in the Super Bowl era to secure a win while registering under 200 total yards, fourteen penalties, and zero takeaways.

Special teams standout Skyy Moore bailed out the struggling offense with massive returns, including a long punt return that set up a tying field goal from Trey Smack.

The narrow escape snapped a six-game skid for the Packers that originally began after Micah Parsons tore his ACL last year against the Denver Broncos. Early injuries to Jayden Reed and Zach Bako-Bewele further depleted an already makeshift lineup, leaving quarterback Jordan Love, Tucker Kraft, Christian Watson, and Matthew Golden to grind through a sluggish offensive display that failed to pick up a single first down until the opening quarter ended.
