Jen, Gabe and Chewy question Matt LaFleur’s approach as the Packers prepare for the Falcons with a battered offensive line. The crew reacts to LaFleur’s explanation for running the ball against two-high safety looks and wonders if opposing defenses are baiting Green Bay into taking the ball out of Jordan Love’s hands. They also dig into the Packers’ ugly third-down numbers and debate whether the solution is simply letting Love throw it more on early downs. ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter joins the show to discuss Packers-Falcons, Green Bay’s offensive line problems, Jayden Reed’s injury and other NFL storylines. The hour wraps with a spirited conversation about the reaction to Caleb Williams’ hamstring injury.
Jen, Gabe and Chewy try to make sense of why rookie Jagger Burton wasn’t playing sooner as the Packers’ offensive line problems continue to pile up. The crew reacts to Matt LaFleur’s explanation and debates whether Green Bay has a larger issue evaluating and developing offensive linemen. They look back at several former Packers linemen who have landed significant roles elsewhere and question some of the personnel decisions that created the current situation. Later, Chewy reveals he’ll officiate his son’s wedding, leading to plenty of concern about what exactly his ceremony might look like. The hour closes with the Brewers clinching a first-round bye and a discussion about how they should approach their final games before the postseason.
Jen and Gabe look ahead to Thursday Night Football and debate whether Packers fans should feel nervous or confident about the Falcons coming to Lambeau Field. Michael Penix Jr. is set to make his season debut, but Gabe says Green Bay's struggling offensive line remains the much bigger concern. Jason Wilde joins the show to discuss Matt LaFleur's approach with a depleted offensive line, Caleb Johnson's role and the Packers' ability to survive without Jaden Reed. The crew also examines Green Bay's remaining wide receiver depth and how Tucker Kraft could be utilized if Reed misses extended time.
Jen and Gabe try to make sense of the latest NFL power rankings and where the Packers land after two weeks. The conversation shifts to Caleb Williams after the Bears quarterback avoided a major injury despite an emotional exit from Sunday's game, leading to a wave of memes across social media. They debate the reaction to Williams' injury, how his teammates and opponents might respond, and the Bears' rough follow-up to their 59-point opener. Plus, the crew revisits Packers-Falcons and explains why Green Bay's offensive line has them feeling nervous heading into Thursday night.
Jen, Gabe and Chewy react to the Packers’ 20-17 overtime win over the Jets and try to find the positives from an ugly Victory Monday. Lucas Van Ness, Evan Williams and Edgerrin Cooper highlight a defense that has impressed through two games, while Skyy Moore and kicker Trey Smack provide reasons for optimism on special teams. But the conversation keeps coming back to Green Bay’s struggling and increasingly injured offensive line and whether it can derail everything else the Packers are doing well. The crew discusses Matt LaFleur’s offense, the lack of a running game and whether Green Bay should overpay in a trade for offensive line help. Plus, they look ahead to a short week and Thursday’s matchup with the Falcons.
