• Led the Packers to six playoff berths in seven seasons (tied for No. 2 in the NFL over that span), tied with Vince Lombardi and Mike Holmgren for the most playoff appearances by a Green Bay head coach in his first seven seasons.
• In his first season leading the Packers in 2019, became the first coach in club history to guide the team to the playoffs in his debut season. Also led the largest one-year win improvement in team history (plus-seven wins).

KEVIN O'CONNELLIn his fifth season as the Vikings' 10th head coach.

• Is in his 12th season as an NFL coach, having previously spent time with the Los Angeles Rams (2020-21), Washington Redskins (2017-19), San Francisco 49ers (2016) and Cleveland Browns (2015).
• Has achieved at least a five-game winning streak in each of his first four seasons (2022-25) as the Vikings' head coach, tied for the second-longest streak of seasons in NFL history (Mike Martz).
• Was named 2024 Coach of the Year by The Associated Press after helping guide the Vikings to their secondmost regular-season wins in franchise history with 14.
