Packernet Podcast: Green Bay Packers

The Packers are heading to the playoffs, and this time the Bears are bringing everybody. Ryan dives deep into the complete injury landscape for Saturday's Wild Card showdown, revealing that for the first time all season, Chicago will have both Roma Odunze AND Keenan Allen—wait, Luther Burden—on the field against Green Bay simultaneously. But before breaking down the matchups, there's a bizarre curveball to address: reports claiming the Packers reached out to John Harbaugh's camp. What does that mean for Matt LaFleur? Ryan examines the strange speculation and tries to make sense of it all. The episode features an exhaustive position-by-position comparison of both rosters across all three 2024 matchups. Key revelations include Jordan Love's stunning 89.3 passing grade this season, the concerning offensive line situation with Zach Tom listed as a game-time decision, and whether guys like Baron Sorrell and Devonte Wyatt's absence will impact the defensive line rotation. Ryan also highlights the overlooked sto

The playoffs are here and the nerves are hitting hard. With the Packers heading to Chicago for a wildcard matchup that Vegas calls a coin flip, callers flood the lines to share their anxiety, their hot takes, and their demands for this roster to step up when it matters most. Paul from Missouri drops a fascinating theory about why the run blocking looks elite with backup quarterbacks but mediocre with Love under center—and it all comes down to offensive linemen knowing a run play is actually a run play. Jason from Cali calls in desperate for hype, admitting he can't stop thinking about Saturday's game. Chris from Alabama brings the fire, declaring this team should win and reminding everyone that playoff time means every record resets to 0-0. The conversation gets heated around Rashaan Gary's future—is a post-June 1 cut inevitable, or will the Packers force a pay cut? Ben Johnson's bravado gets roasted as pure insecurity dressed up as confidence. And the bottom line emerges: Jordan Love is a $55 million quar

The NFL coaching carousel is spinning wildly, but one glaring absence stands out—no Green Bay Packers names on anyone's interview list. What does that say about our offensive staff? Ryan breaks down all the major coaching moves including John Harbaugh's shocking departure from Baltimore, the Giants going all-in to land him, and why the Packers' lack of coaching buzz should concern fans. Plus, the full injury report breakdown for Saturday's Bears matchup, weather conditions at Soldier Field, and Matt LaFleur's press conference highlights including the definitive answer on Jordan Morgan's position. The episode also covers a significant organizational restructuring that could change how the Packers operate—moving away from Mark Murphy's "silos" approach to a traditional GM-over-coach structure under new president Erich Polian. And for draft enthusiasts, early scouting on two intriguing center prospects: Iowa's Logan Jones (an athletic freak on Bruce Feldman's list) and Alabama's Parker Brailsford. Calls from

The playoffs are here, and the emotions are running high as we break down everything heading into Wild Card Weekend against the Bears. Ryan admits he's sitting just below 50% confidence on the Packers pulling off the win, but the callers aren't backing down from their predictions of a Chicago beatdown. Speculation on Jeff Hafley's future and whether Raheem Morris could be a potential DC replacement Breaking down why knocking the Bears out would take the sting out of any subsequent playoff loss Aaron Rodgers sideline flashbacks during the Steelers-Ravens thriller and why it felt good to root for him again The bizarre Eagles decision to rest starters and hand away the two seed Brian Gutekunst's aggressive free agency approach versus Ted Thompson's draft-only philosophy Seahawks loom as a terrifying potential second-round opponent with the league's top-ranked defense The crew digs into whether Jordan Love can tap into that championship mentality, why the Packers offense should feast on Chicago's struggling d

Packers Total Access : BREAKING NEWS! Bo Melton & Zach Tom Injury Updates!

Adam Schefter drops major news about Matt Lafleur and Brian Gutekunst's future in Green Bay, suggesting contract extensions are the priority—not performance evaluations. But the real fireworks come when Ryan dives into a data scientist's Shannon entropy analysis that completely demolishes the "predictable play caller" narrative Packer fans have been pushing for years. Key Discussion Points: Schefter reveals the Packers' contract negotiation strategy and why the "hot seat" talk was overblown A deep dive into Steven Patton's play calling predictability chart—and the cognitive dissonance from fans who suddenly don't care about predictability when the data doesn't support them Ryan goes play-by-play through fourth-and-short calls to prove fan "memories" are completely wrong Matt Lafleur's press conference highlights: Jordan Love starts Saturday, Zach Tom expected back, and Willis ready as backup Rest vs. rust data breakdown—what the numbers actually say about resting starters heading into playoffs Major winter

Chris from Alabama absolutely unloads on the Packers fan base in one of the most passionate calls we've had all season. After a meaningless Week 18 loss to the Vikings with Clayton Tune under center, the discourse has gotten out of control—and Chris isn't having it anymore. Three Hall of Fame quarterbacks in 30 years, consistent playoff appearances, and fans are acting like we're the Cleveland Browns? The conversation dives deep into the Matt LaFleur debate, examining why the criticism doesn't hold up under scrutiny. We break down the injury context that nobody wants to acknowledge—losing Tucker Craft, Micah Parsons, and Jaire Alexander for the season isn't something you just overcome. Plus, an honest discussion about Matthew Golden that might ruffle some feathers: is he struggling to grasp the offense, and was that first-round pick really the right call? We also tackle the offensive line question heading into the playoffs—Morgan or Rasheed at left tackle?—and preview what it's going to take to beat Chicag

Packers Total Access : Ben Johnson Takes Another Shot At Matt LaFleur

The PFF grades tell a surprising story: Clayton Tune graded as the lowest offensive player despite looking solid on film, while Anthony Belton turned in his best performance of the season with an 84 pass blocking grade at right guard. On defense, Trevon Diggs led the way with an 81.5 grade, offering hope for his future in Green Bay. Plus, Daniel Whelan absolutely dominated with five punts inside the 20. Ryan also takes aim at Bears head coach Ben Johnson for his tone-deaf comments about "not sitting starters," breaking down exactly why that take is complete nonsense. With the playoff matchup against Chicago looming, it's time to turn the page and get locked in. This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Separating fact from fear after the Packers' meaningless Week 18 loss to the Vikings—Ryan and the callers break down what actually matters heading into playoff football against the Bears. The phone lines lit up as fans processed watching backups get steamrolled, with Clayton Tune posting negative passing yards and the offense looking completely lost without Jordan Love. But here's what has callers surprisingly optimistic: Baron Sorrell and Collin Auver flashed serious potential, the run game gashed Minnesota's "elite" defense, and most importantly—nobody of consequence got hurt (prayers up for Bo Melton's knee). Callers debate whether LaFleur finally learned his lesson about resting starters, why the "rust factor" might be completely fake according to actual data, and whether Rashaan Gary deserves to lose snaps to hungrier depth players. The consensus? It's time to remember who we are, go into Chicago, and handle business against a Bears team that just collapsed against the Lions. One thing's certain—losin

The most meaningless game of the season is in the books, and honestly? It was a blast. While the doom-and-gloom crowd melts down over a fourth-quarter loss with backups, the real story is what happened around the NFC North. The Vikings and Lions – last year's division darlings – are officially done. Season over. Mock draft season for them. Ryan breaks down why overreacting to this game is a complete waste of energy, highlights the impressive performances from Chris Brooks, Baron Sorrell, and Jacob Monk, and delivers a devastating autopsy on both the Lions and Vikings rosters. Detroit went from "best team in football" to picking 17th overall while dealing with massive roster holes and a questionable coaching staff. Minnesota? An aging roster, a broken quarterback situation with JJ McCarthy, and a defensive coordinator who's almost certainly leaving. The Packers are heading to the playoffs. Two rivals are going home.
