3. Green Bay Packers (4)

Week 2 result: Win against Indianapolis Colts, 16-10

Sunday's game is the exact reason why Matt LaFleur is one of the greatest offensive minds in the NFL. Despite all the questions of Malik Willis throwing the ball, LaFleur drew up an excellent gameplan for his backup quarterback starting in place of Jordan Love. Willis completed 12 of 14 passes on Sunday while totaling 122 passing yards and a touchdown.

It was a game that highlighted the major difference between the Packers' coaching staff and the Bears' coaching staff. Regardless of the quarterback, LaFleur puts his quarterbacks in not only a position to be comfortable but a position to succeed. The same has yet to be proven true about the Bears and their coaching staff.

Even better news for the Packers, Jordan Love's MCL sprain isn't severe. There is some talk that Love could be ready to return in Week 3 for the Packers.
