Packers coach Matt LaFleur emphasizes the importance of playing starters in the final game against the Bears for valuable experience.
Green Bay: So, LaFleur is all in on playing the starters this Sunday against the Bears. He learned from the past when resting players didn’t pan out. Back in 2021, they had the top seed but it backfired when they rested guys. This time, he’s making sure everyone who’s healthy gets some game time.
He mentioned that even if they’re likely the No. 7 seed, it’s still important to play well. LaFleur believes that playing can really help the team get ready for the playoffs. He’s aware of injuries but isn’t planning to be overly cautious. It’s all about winning, and he wants the team to keep that mindset.
LaFleur thinks a solid performance this week could set them up nicely for the playoffs. He’s got his eyes on the prize and knows that playing well now can make a difference later. It’s all about building momentum and confidence as they head into the postseason.
