Despite Recent Losses, LaFleur Believes Fixing Communication Issues is Key to Reviving Playoff Hopes
- Green Bay Packers' head coach Matt LaFleur has decided to keep Joe Barry as defensive coordinator despite recent poor performances from the team's defense.
- LaFleur has committed to taking a bigger role in assisting the Packers' defense, which has been struggling to maintain its playoff hopes.
- The Packers have suffered losses in their last two games due to their inability to stop New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield.

- The Packers (6-8) likely must win their remaining three games and receive plenty of help to reach the playoffs.
