    4PM: Can New Coordinators Fix LaFleur? + Kyle’s DC Shortlist, Al Harris Buzz, and John Anderson Sounds the Alarm
    Jan 20 2026
    The 414 Hour dives headfirst into the biggest question surrounding the Packers’ offseason: can changing coordinators actually fix what ails Matt LaFleur, or is the head coach’s ceiling already set? Ben Brust, Kyle Wallace, and Brad Nortman break down the power structure of an NFL coaching staff, why coordinators work for the head coach, and whether accountability, toughness, and culture can truly be outsourced. The conversation intensifies as Kyle Wallace unveils his top five candidates to replace Jeff Hafley, including Raheem Morris, Jim Leonhard, Brian Flores, Jonathan Gannon, and a polarizing No. 1 choice in Al Harris. The group debates leadership styles, coaching trees, player development, and whether Green Bay needs fresh ideas or a fundamentally different voice. The Wheel of Will adds chaos with a blind quote-ranking exercise that leads to one unforgettable Jonathan Gannon audio clip. ESPN’s John Anderson then joins the show and delivers a brutally honest assessment of Matt LaFleur’s tenure, questioning whether the Packers have already seen his peak. Anderson explains why losing to the Bears twice changed everything for him, why playoff “floors” aren’t enough in Green Bay, and what LaFleur must do to earn back trust. The discussion closes with a sobering look at recent collapses, missed opportunities, and what real postseason proof would need to look like in 2026.
