The torch for the worst fourth down field goal decision has passed from Dan Quinn to Matt LaFleur
The Packers are the first team to attempt a field goal when trailing by four to eight points in the final three minutes of a game since Dan Quinn did that on November 8th, 2015. So I think today is the day. It is officially the torch. The torch has been passed. It is now a Matt LaFleur.

Matt LaFleur's decision to kick a field goal on 4th and goal was the most cowardly move ever
The most cowardice field goal of all time. Matt LaFleur, I do not understand what you're doing. The decision to kick a field goal with [2:10] left, three timeouts, down eight on the seven yard line, fourth and goal... so that you can seemingly go from needing a touchdown to needing a touchdown... was so beyond [stupid].
Kicking the field goal was the best path for the Packers to win the game
A touchdown on fourth down plus two-point conversion plus defensive stop for overtime was less likely to win than three points on fourth down and an onside kick or a defensive stop, two-minute warning, three timeouts, plus touchdown for a win. So kicking the field goal is the best path to win.
