## Resource

The Packers’ 2026 opener ended in disaster as they fell to the Vikings 22-39, exposing a troubling pattern: blown leads and fourth-quarter collapses that have haunted the team since last season. Despite Matt LaFleur’s reputation as a QB guru, his teams keep stumbling at the finish line — a flaw that’s led to questions about his job security and even prompted a contract extension last January with promises of change. But Sunday’s game proved those promises unfulfilled: the Packers played well early, then crumbled under conservative play-calling and questionable run decisions, letting opponents claw back into games. LaFleur’s tendency to dial it down when up — rather than pushing for victory — remains his biggest weakness, and the cycle of late-game failures looks set to continue.
