BREAKING: Packers Hire Titans OC Matt LaFleur As New Head Coach

When the Green Bay Packers finally decided to part ways with Mike McCarthy, most thought the franchise would hire a big name head coach to come in and handle the greatness of Aaron Rodgers and fix the holes in the team that has forced them to miss the playoffs for 2-straight years.

On Monday, the team hired the 39-year-old now former Titans offensive coordinator Matt LaFleur as their newest head coach.
