Green Bay collapse could spell doom for Matt LaFleur

Our Summary

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur faced a challenging playoff game as his team squandered a 21-3 lead, ultimately losing 31-27 after allowing 25 points in the fourth quarter. Despite the loss, Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reported that LaFleur's future with the team isn't solely dependent on this game. The Packers and LaFleur are expected to discuss a contract extension after the season, though the dramatic loss could influence the decision.
