GBGUY, I don't know if you wanted someone to do this...but I am trying to accommodate..

How Packers coach Matt LaFleur is doing what other first-year coaches haven't: Win
6:00 AM ET Rob Demovsky ESPN Staff Writer

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- No one wants to be on what Blake Martinez called "The Bad Tape."

Sometimes, however, the Green Bay Packers linebacker knows it’s coming. And as much as he wants to sink lower into his chair in the team meeting room, he knows he has to sit tall and take it.

Everyone does.

"Every single time you go in there, everybody’s talking about it, everybody’s saying, ‘Oh no, I might be on 'The Bad Tape,’" Martinez said. "It’s just the concept of [not] letting each other down."

It happens in every team meeting -- whether it’s after a practice, a walk-through or a game. First-year coach Matt LaFleur shows two films. "The Good Tape" is always played first. Then comes "The Bad Tape."

"He’ll make sure he puts every single thing on there that could potentially lose us games," Martinez said.

Really good read. I like that he is holding everyone accountable.

Very happy that the article states that 12 is held accountable in front of the team as well. Maybe this is why he has been hitting his checkdowns the last couple of weeks.

If "The Bad Tape" sometimes gets long, it’s because LaFleur lets little go unnoticed. And no one -- not even quarterback Aaron Rodgers -- gets an exemption.

"Whatever we’re doing he’s making sure we’re doing it right, whether it’s running off the field, whether it’s warming up, whether it’s breaking the huddle -- doing all those little things that are going to count in the game and focusing on it every single day," Martinez said. "He points it out, he’s praising it. It could be something as little as making sure your shoes are tied when you’re walking out there. It’s been awesome to have a coach like that and hold everybody accountable. It doesn’t matter if No. 12 is doing it or a practice-squad guy."

I really like this. For the longest time I felt that we never came off as a complete team where we seemed to have cliques. It really feels that LaFleur is creating a team concept of accountability which makes for better buy-in when everyone is held to the same standard.

I am not sure who the bad apples were (I have my guesses) but the D looks so tight and their closeness to Pettine that it makes me so excited as to how good they can be. Hoping the O can get to that level at one point.

wpr (7h) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
wpr (9-Apr) : yay
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
