Why isnt Matt Lafleur getting talked about for Coach Of The Year?

No other coach in the history of the NFL has had a better record their first 3 seasons up to this week than MLF.

He installed a modern offense and within a year Rodgers became MVP.

Even with Rodgers having a some what down year by his standards in 2019 and even this year, MLF still fielded out a plan and team that wins games.

Hes responsible for hiring Joe Barry and despite the nevative reactions for this hiring, Joe Barry has our defense looking the best since 2010.

So again, why isnt MLF talked about or praised for being a strong candidate for coach of the year?

He gets overlooked a lot, I agree. Probably because we have Aaron Rodgers at QB and people give him most of the credit. Just a guess

If it wasn't for Rodgers, MLF's record could be 4-13....proven in the Chiefs game

People love to hate him. It starts with the media narrative and goes on from there. He's done a great job as HC.

First off, is anyone getting talk or discussion of coach of the year? I just haven't heard that discussion at all... whom are they talking about this year? Cardinals and Titans head coaches?

As far as why LaFleur isn't getting any...I think there are 4 reasons.

[list=1]

Because there have been other good options...

He has Aaron Freakin' Rodgers, Devonte Oh'my Adams and Aaron Flash Jones...

Outside of 2020 (Covid, no fans, quiet stadiums years) his offenses have struggled, even with the law firm of Aaron, Aaron and Adams helping him.

Haven't been in the top offensive 15 in points or yards in 2019 or 2021...

The coaching award usually goes to a coach whom is turning a franchise around with a questionable passing QB (the exact opposite of the Packers and Aaron Rodgers)

Can't say any of these guys are clear HOF QBs when their HC won, and most of them were young or their team hadn't had a winning season for a good while, now of which can be said about the Packers.

2020: Browns: (Baker Mayfield)
2019: Ravens (Lamar Jackson)
2018: Bears (Mitchell Trubisky/Chase Daniel)
2017: Rams (Jared Goff second year and went from the oldest school offense to the newest school offense)
2016: Cowboys (rookie Dak Prescott)

2015: Panthers (Cam Newton)
2014: Cardinals (Drew Stanton, Carson Palmer, Ryan Lindley)
2013: Panthers (Cam Newton)
2012: Colts (rookie Andrew Luck and offensive coordinator stepping up to be the head coach due to illness of head coach)

2011: 49ers (Alex Smith, 6-10 to 13-3)
