The Green Bay Packers’ 2021 season has come and gone. Matt LaFleur’s team clinched the NFC North and also amassed 13 wins for the third straight year.
Unfortunately, another exciting season came to a brutal end in the playoffs. A complete no-show from the offense and an abysmal performance by special teams led to the team’s demise against the now eliminated San Francisco 49ers.
Green Bay has already started to correct some of its mistakes. On Tuesday, reporting from Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel revealed the Packers will move on from special teams coordinator Maurice Drayton, an in-house hire by Matt LaFleur who failed to turn around a unit that has struggled for years. However, the Packers’ work has just begun. We are still awaiting a decision from Aaron Rodgers and face the uncertainty of the salary-cap jockeying that needs to happen to build a competitive team.
