How important have zero turnover games been to the Green Bay Packers since Matt LaFleur took over as head coach? Consider this:
- In the 65 games played in the LaFleur era in Green Bay, the Packers had zero turnovers in 32 of those games, just under half of the games played.
- In LaFleur’s 47 wins as Packers’ coach, the team has won 28 of those games with no turnovers in the contest.
The Packers lead the NFL in both above stats. From 2019-22 (through 16 games), the Packers top the NFL with 32 turnover-less games. The Tennessee Titans are second with 25 games. Their 28 wins in games with no turnovers is nine more than the team with the second most, New Orleans, with 19.
