- 1:37Speaker 2: up to the defender. 40. Left sideline. It's 50, 45, 40.
- 1:41Speaker 2: He's still on his feet.
- 1:43Speaker 1: Stumbling along the left sideline. Across the 25, 20. And
- 1:47Speaker 1: Sky Moore has put the Packers right back.
- 1:50Speaker 2: In this game.
- 1:52Speaker 1: Wheeling down on one knee, arm extended, waiting for the
- 1:55Speaker 1: snap from Matt Orzek. Here it is, placement made, swing
- 1:57Speaker 1: to the right leg, kick to the uprights.
- 2:00Speaker 2: It is good!
- 2:02Speaker 1: Fourth down, a yard to go, a little bit less
- 2:04Speaker 1: than a yard, to the midfield marker. For the Jets,
- 2:06Speaker 1: out of the shotgun. Here's the snap to give to
- 2:09Speaker 1: Braylon Allen in the right side of the line. Stacked up,
- 2:11Speaker 1: driven down!
- 2:13Speaker 2: He's short! He's short in the first down. Lucas Van Ness,
- 2:16Speaker 2: what a game he's played. Lucas Van Ness again! Oh, yeah,
- 2:18Speaker 2: it was huge! Oh, that was huge.
- 2:22Speaker 1: Lucas Van Ness, what a game he's played here today.
- 2:26Speaker 2: And faking the handoff. Smith back to throw. Steps up.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Under pressure.
- 2:30Speaker 1: Hit and sack. Boy, they brought Cisse on a blitz.
- 2:33Speaker 1: And he misdirected the quarterback right into Baron Sorrell.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Geno Smith takes the snap. Four-man rush. Under some pressure.
- 2:41Speaker 2: Hit again. Hit and sack. Back near the 15-yard line.
- 2:46Speaker 1: Lucas Van Ness LVN again. Dagger drawn. 26-yard field goal attempt.

- 2:59Speaker 1: the left hash mark.
- 3:01Speaker 2: Snap. Placement. Trey smacks it to the upper. Yes!
- 3:04Speaker 4: It is good!
- 3:05Speaker 2: It is good!
- 3:06Speaker 1: And a dagger delivered by the rookie.
- 3:10Speaker 2: Trey smacked. The Packers win it 20-17.
- 3:18Speaker 5: Quite the montage. Feel like I was at the Meadowlands
- 3:22Speaker 5: MetLife Stadium. Welcome into the Monday edition. No, check that.
- 3:25Speaker 5: The Victory Monday edition. The Victory Monday times, not one,
- 3:29Speaker 5: not two, three times. Victory Monday, as we here on
- 3:34Speaker 5: the huddle, kick off a week celebrating victories by the Packers, Badgers.
- 3:39Speaker 6: And Brewers. When's the last time that happened? We're in
- 3:42Speaker 6: the 10%, Billy.
- 3:43Speaker 2: Come on now.
- 3:43Speaker 7: It's nice to finally have a Victory Monday on the huddle.
- 3:46Speaker 7: If I'm not mistaken, fellas, this would be our inaugural
- 3:50Speaker 7: Victory Monday.
- 3:51Speaker 2: And to be able to.
- 3:52Speaker 7: Celebrate it that way with Arvin Sarian mixing it down,
- 3:54Speaker 7: having a Monday montage to celebrate what was... It was
- 3:59Speaker 7: a win. I'm not going to say it was a
- 4:01Speaker 7: great win. I'm not going to say it was a
- 4:03Speaker 7: desperate win. It was a win, an overtime win. And
- 4:07Speaker 7: Lord knows where this offensive line and this football team is.
- 4:10Speaker 7: You can't apologize for any of it. You just smile
- 4:13Speaker 7: and enjoy the check. You mean we're not going to
- 4:16Speaker 7: hang that one in the Louvre? I can't imagine that
- 4:19Speaker 7: one's going to go in anybody's Rolodex is one of
- 4:23Speaker 7: their favorites of all time.
- 4:24Speaker 2: But who knows?
- 4:25Speaker 7: Maybe somebody had the nine nothing victory over the Jets.
- 4:29Speaker 7: as one of their favorites back in 2010, we'll see.
- 4:32Speaker 7: It was, uh, it was far from pit pretty, but
- 4:34Speaker 7: drew the shoe just had to be on the other foot.
- 4:37Speaker 6: They just had to be down 10. And then all
- 4:39Speaker 6: of a sudden they could finally finish.
- 4:40Speaker 3: Sometimes when you're a starving, you need to go to
- 4:42Speaker 3: the shelter to get a meal. Like it might not
- 4:44Speaker 3: be Michelin star, but it's going to sustain you in the,
- 4:46Speaker 3: in the Packers needed one.
- 4:47Speaker 6: And they got that sometimes. I know.
- 4:50Speaker 1: I know.
- 4:50Speaker 6: Thankfully never have. I know some people are less fortunate.
- 4:53Speaker 3: I don't do that, but, uh, The thing is, you know,
- 4:56Speaker 3: it might not always be a masterpiece, like you said,
- 4:59Speaker 3: but sometimes you need to get through. And the Packers,
- 5:01Speaker 3: I would say, got a much needed win because you
- 5:03Speaker 3: need something. Something good had to happen for this team.
- 5:05Speaker 3: And it finally did late in that fourth quarter in MetLife.
- 5:10Speaker 5: Absolutely needed it for sure. One and one, which puts
- 5:14Speaker 5: you in good stead in the NFC North now behind.
- 5:18Speaker 6: The Vikings.
- 5:19Speaker 7: Surprise. The ever-changing week-to-week league of the NFL. You want
- 5:25Speaker 7: something to change, just wait 20 minutes and something will.
- 5:28Speaker 7: And the NFC North probably flipped a little bit on
- 5:31Speaker 7: its head yesterday with the injury in Chicago.
- 5:32Speaker 6: I know we'll talk about that coming up. Oh, we
- 5:34Speaker 6: will for sure. We got game balls and kicks to
- 5:35Speaker 6: the balls.
- 5:36Speaker 5: You can reach out to us, 5 o'clock clubbers, 877-794-1973
- 5:39Speaker 5: as we welcome and we open our doors to everyone,
- 5:42Speaker 5: including the Insomniacs, Early Risers, and Sociopaths waiting for the
- 5:45Speaker 5: health club to.
- 5:46Speaker 6: Open at 5 a.m. on a Monday.
- 5:48Speaker 5: The Bears game provided some perspective, perhaps. I mean, you're
- 5:52Speaker 5: wondering about, oh, the Bears couldn't do anything at U.S.
- 5:55Speaker 5: Bank Stadium against that defense with Brian Flores and those
- 5:58Speaker 5: guys swarming around and all the different multiple fronts and
- 6:01Speaker 5: the looks and the blitzes and coming from every direction.
- 6:04Speaker 6: Well, in the open air at the Bears home in
- 6:07Speaker 6: somewhat inclement weather, granted, the.
- 6:11Speaker 7: Bears offense looked lost. They didn't have a lead to blow. No, man,
- 6:16Speaker 7: they spiraled and sputtered all game long. It was far
- 6:19Speaker 7: from good for Carson Wentz. And I mean, they ultimately
- 6:23Speaker 7: got 17 first downs, but that was about it. Almost
- 6:26Speaker 7: 300 yards of offense in a rain soaked three point
- 6:29Speaker 7: affair offense.
- 6:29Speaker 5: Retroactively, I feel better about the Packers performance on offense
- 6:33Speaker 5: against the Vikings.
- 6:34Speaker 2: I like that. Yeah.
- 6:35Speaker 6: And listen, I do.
- 6:38Speaker 5: The bears, the greatest offense since the greatest show on turf, right?
- 6:41Speaker 5: Ben couldn't get on track at home and the back,
- 6:43Speaker 5: the Packers in the road in that loud environment with
- 6:45Speaker 5: the silent count put up 400 yards of offense.
- 6:49Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:49Speaker 7: And I mean, listen, games are all different. And when
- 6:52Speaker 7: you were playing in that kind of rain, it was
- 6:54Speaker 7: going to be different. The amount of times the ball
- 6:56Speaker 7: was on the turf was hilarious yesterday in that game.
- 6:59Speaker 7: But I mean, the Vikings know how to play in
- 7:03Speaker 7: the red zone. And as much as the Bears were
- 7:05Speaker 7: able to possess the ball and move it up and
- 7:07Speaker 7: down the field, they were 0 of 3 in the
- 7:09Speaker 7: red zone, where the Packers 1 of 4 last week
- 7:12Speaker 7: was really the biggest detriment. We talked about the fourth quarter.
- 7:15Speaker 7: That fourth quarter, hard to even have it happen if
- 7:18Speaker 7: you score more touchdowns in the red area. And that's
- 7:22Speaker 7: where the Flores defense has been the biggest weapon so far.
- 7:25Speaker 7: And when all of a sudden that leg pulls on you,
- 7:28Speaker 7: then you know that the game was going to be
- 7:30Speaker 7: a different result there, but more, more on them coming up.
- 7:33Speaker 7: Better thing is that you finally are able to, as
- 7:35Speaker 7: Mike McCarthy would say, take care of your own house
- 7:38Speaker 7: and you don't get the opportunity to, to enjoy and
- 7:42Speaker 7: bask in the glow of a loss for others in
- 7:44Speaker 7: the division. If you sit there at Owen too, and
- 7:48Speaker 7: your season was on legitimate life support, it.
- 7:51Speaker 6: Felt like we had about the eight minute mark in
- 7:53Speaker 6: the fourth quarter.
- 7:53Speaker 7: You're sitting there trying to breathe and figuring out how
- 7:56Speaker 7: on earth the next 15 weeks are going to feel.
- 7:59Speaker 7: And luckily you don't even have to worry about it.
- 8:01Speaker 7: Cause as a way, no said, and he's going to
- 8:02Speaker 7: join us at seven 25 LVN again, never too late.
- 8:08Speaker 7: to make your biggest appearance and LVN as the 13th
- 8:11Speaker 7: overall pick.
- 8:12Speaker 6: We're fine.
- 8:13Speaker 7: If it comes this year for that breakout year, cause
- 8:16Speaker 7: it sure seems like that boy is primed for one.
- 8:18Speaker 1: Wow.
- 8:18Speaker 3: Sometimes you gotta be patient, but he's showing up at
- 8:20Speaker 3: the most opportune time for the Packers for Packer fans,
- 8:24Speaker 3: especially with Micah not being ready yet that we've needed
- 8:27Speaker 3: a pass rush and he stepped up big time.
- 8:28Speaker 6: So you have to give him credit for, yeah.
- 8:31Speaker 3: I mean, he was the player of the game yesterday
- 8:32Speaker 3: in a lot of ways and, and he's been, helping
- 8:35Speaker 3: this team out, saving this team because the pass rush
- 8:37Speaker 3: without him is pretty inconsistent. I would still say so.
- 8:41Speaker 3: You know, he's been manna from heaven, right? As they say,
- 8:44Speaker 3: he's been manna from heaven right now for the Packers,
- 8:46Speaker 3: for their defense. He was all over the field yesterday,
- 8:48Speaker 3: making big plays. And you're right, Billy, a little patience,
- 8:52Speaker 3: but as long as it's, as long as, you know,
- 8:55Speaker 3: the fruits of the labor are coming through now, a
- 8:56Speaker 3: few years later, that's totally fine. So it's funny how
- 8:59Speaker 3: these games work, right? I mean, you can look at
- 9:01Speaker 3: so many of the, the stats and you could say, boy,
- 9:04Speaker 3: how did they lose that game one with the stats
- 9:05Speaker 3: they put up? And then you can look at this
- 9:07Speaker 3: one and say, how do they win this one with
- 9:09Speaker 3: the stats they put up? And that's just this league sometimes.
- 9:11Speaker 3: And that's the NFL. You got to get wins when
- 9:13Speaker 3: you can. Sometimes you feel like you deserve wins or
- 9:16Speaker 3: wins got away from you and you should have won
- 9:18Speaker 3: and you didn't. And sometimes you feel like you stole one.
- 9:21Speaker 3: I think that's, that's a little bit of even Steven
- 9:23Speaker 3: for the Packers. I would say in week two, it's
- 9:25Speaker 3: like in a lot of ways, there's no business being
- 9:28Speaker 3: in that game, much less winning. But they found a way,
- 9:30Speaker 3: and maybe they had a little bit of that fortune
- 9:32Speaker 3: coming back to them.
- 9:33Speaker 5: They're on the other side of one of those freakish
- 9:35Speaker 5: stats that no team in the Super Bowl era has
- 9:39Speaker 5: done what they did. The combination of things that the
- 9:42Speaker 5: Packers did. Over 100 yards of penalties, lost a turnover battle.
- 9:46Speaker 6: It's nice to be on that side. Less than 200
- 9:48Speaker 6: yards of offense. And what was it? Over 10 penalties.
- 9:53Speaker 6: Whatever it was.
- 9:54Speaker 5: 100 yards penalties. And they won. And they won you know,
- 9:58Speaker 5: coming back. So I guess you, this is the time
- 10:01Speaker 5: and the NFL season, it starts like a balloon and
- 10:04Speaker 5: then you slowly like let some air out of it.
- 10:06Speaker 6: Or you, sometimes you just take a pin to it
- 10:09Speaker 6: and you just explode the thing.
- 10:11Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 10:11Speaker 5: But the Buccaneers yesterday, it was yesterday. Like the Packers
- 10:14Speaker 5: LVN is a waste of draft pick. Was he, did
- 10:16Speaker 5: you watch him yesterday? Did he look like a number
- 10:18Speaker 5: one overall pick?
- 10:19Speaker 6: He did. It was, He looked like a game wrecker
- 10:21Speaker 6: to me.
- 10:21Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 10:23Speaker 6: He was all over the field.
- 10:24Speaker 7: Yeah, no doubt about it. Not 10 total tackles. My
- 10:27Speaker 7: man was leading him in tackles. It's rare, rare for
- 10:29Speaker 7: a defensive end.
- 10:30Speaker 5: And getting quick pressures, which even on plays when he
- 10:33Speaker 5: didn't get like a counting stat, he influenced play. So
- 10:37Speaker 5: he made them in tougher decisions, faster decisions. So he
- 10:40Speaker 5: was all over the place. That narrative's gone. The Packers
- 10:42Speaker 5: aren't clutch on the road in the rain with your
- 10:46Speaker 5: season on the line. Can't blow a 10-point lead if
- 10:48Speaker 5: you don't have one.
- 10:49Speaker 6: There you go. Now we're talking. Now we're talking. Now
- 10:52Speaker 6: we're talking.
- 10:52Speaker 5: But that was somewhat clutch to come back the way
- 10:55Speaker 5: they did and to score the last 13 points unanswered.
- 11:01Speaker 5: We go from 17-7 down and looking bleak early in
- 11:06Speaker 5: the fourth quarter to walking it off in overtime.
- 11:09Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 11:10Speaker 6: In, in drool, if you want with the mechanics of it,
- 11:12Speaker 6: but they did, they did that. They were down.
- 11:15Speaker 7: However, it works out at some point, the, the bad
- 11:18Speaker 7: team is complicit too. And luckily the New York jets
- 11:20Speaker 7: are still an interesting squad. It's not the greatest close
- 11:24Speaker 7: of all time, right? Cause I mean, you get a
- 11:26Speaker 7: four play drive for three yards in the field goal
- 11:28Speaker 7: off of the incredible return from sky more where you
- 11:31Speaker 7: could have bagged it and probably put the game away
- 11:34Speaker 7: there and took a four point lead with a short field.
- 11:37Speaker 7: But then you still get the massive stop on fourth
- 11:39Speaker 7: down and then again, have a chance to be able
- 11:41Speaker 7: to do it in regulation. But whenever, whenever they got
- 11:45Speaker 7: the ball into overtime, it was a clean March, 11
- 11:49Speaker 7: yard run, three yard run, 15 yard pass, 14 yarder.
- 11:52Speaker 7: to Matthew golden on the quick little flip. And it
- 11:55Speaker 7: was curtains from there. It was systemic and systematic when
- 11:59Speaker 7: you need it. It's seven plays and 73 yards on
- 12:01Speaker 7: the touchdown to trim it within to, to trim it
- 12:05Speaker 7: to three. And then that five play 58 yard one
- 12:08Speaker 7: puts it to bed. So they had a couple of
- 12:09Speaker 7: good drives on the day sandwiched in with both teams,
- 12:13Speaker 7: just being littered with three and outs and, It wasn't
- 12:16Speaker 7: just a Packers problem on bad offense yesterday, but to
- 12:19Speaker 7: escape a game where you have less than 200 yards offense,
- 12:23Speaker 7: lose two guys. This part I don't know is in
- 12:25Speaker 7: the stat. Have two of your core players carted off.
- 12:29Speaker 7: in the first three plays.
- 12:30Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 12:32Speaker 7: That sets an interesting tenor for the game that you're
- 12:35Speaker 7: about to play for the next three hours in like
- 12:38Speaker 7: 30 minutes as it turned out to be.
- 12:40Speaker 6: But that's a heck of a resilient effort. That's not the.
- 12:43Speaker 7: Easiest thing to do to just put to bed the
- 12:47Speaker 7: fact that Jaden Reed, one of your biggest leaders, just
- 12:49Speaker 7: got carded off and we didn't see him move. And
- 12:52Speaker 7: Zach Bacoboele has been working back for nine months after
- 12:55Speaker 7: a torn patella and his leg is in an air cast.
- 12:58Speaker 7: Those are tough things to be able to quickly turn
- 13:01Speaker 7: it on for. It took the Packers quite a while
- 13:04Speaker 7: to fully rev the engine, but once they finally did,
- 13:06Speaker 7: they were able to get up out of there and
- 13:08Speaker 7: drive that thing home.
- 13:09Speaker 3: And it did feel like to me it rattled them
- 13:10Speaker 3: a little bit or at least got them off kilter.
- 13:12Speaker 6: I don't know how it doesn't.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 13:14Speaker 3: I mean, you get on your heels when you see
- 13:15Speaker 3: your brothers go down, although they did get the lead.
- 13:17Speaker 3: I mean, they had the 7-0 lead, but that was
- 13:21Speaker 3: a tough one to sustain. And there's a lot of
- 13:22Speaker 3: those things in this game, a lot of injury questions, obviously,
- 13:26Speaker 3: besides those two guys, and a lot of negative things
- 13:29Speaker 3: to talk about. But the reality is when this team
- 13:32Speaker 3: needed it the most, they were able to get the
- 13:33Speaker 3: job done and go to one-on-one. And that's the most
- 13:36Speaker 3: important thing is you.
- 13:37Speaker 6: Face a short week now. That's all that matters is
- 13:39Speaker 6: that Packers are one-on-one.
- 13:41Speaker 5: We didn't dive into it because it was Packers OT,
- 13:46Speaker 5: not J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, O-T.
- 13:50Speaker 6: But in hindsight and thinking of the way things unfolded. No,
- 13:53Speaker 6: talk about it.
- 13:53Speaker 5: The way that Aaron Glenn managed the clock at the
- 13:55Speaker 5: end of the game to allow the Packers to bleed
- 13:58Speaker 5: the clock at the end of regulation and even try
- 14:01Speaker 5: a Hail Mary when they could have burned a timeout,
- 14:04Speaker 5: like a fourth down with a minute left. We didn't
- 14:07Speaker 5: spend any time on it, but that was like a colossal,
- 14:10Speaker 5: colossal screw up.
- 14:11Speaker 7: Yeah, only doubled up and made worse by taking the
- 14:15Speaker 7: ball first in overtime.
- 14:16Speaker 5: Another curious decision. You always want to know what you have,
- 14:19Speaker 5: especially at home. Like, what do we have to get?
- 14:21Speaker 5: What do we have to, you know, you're both going
- 14:22Speaker 5: to get a possession. So in that circumstance, the Packers
- 14:26Speaker 5: were in a much better, because you're one stop and
- 14:27Speaker 5: then like go win the game.
- 14:28Speaker 6: LaFleur said it.
- 14:29Speaker 7: I can't remember if it was at the presser or
- 14:30Speaker 7: with Larry after the game on the Packers radio network
- 14:33Speaker 7: where he said, he's like, yeah, I, I was just surprised.
- 14:36Speaker 7: I didn't, I didn't, I, that's what we were hoping for.
- 14:38Speaker 7: I was very excited, very happy when they decided to
- 14:41Speaker 7: do so. But then, you know, I think that's just
- 14:44Speaker 7: exclusive to the Jets. Cam Bynum last night, late night,
- 14:47Speaker 7: my man didn't even know the rules. He tried to defer,
- 14:49Speaker 7: and Mahomes is like, yes, kick, kick, kick. He's deferring
- 14:53Speaker 7: his choice.
- 14:54Speaker 2: We get it.
- 14:54Speaker 6: We get it.
- 14:56Speaker 2: So if we still don't.
- 14:57Speaker 7: Know the rules two or three years in, that would
- 15:00Speaker 7: be on the staff. Yeah, I don't know what he
- 15:03Speaker 7: was doing there. Good on the floor to find the
- 15:05Speaker 7: loophole of it to get the 10-second runoff each time.
- 15:08Speaker 6: Very Belichickian.
- 15:09Speaker 7: It really was a very rare clock management dub for
- 15:12Speaker 7: Matt LaFleur.
- 15:13Speaker 6: You got to take those when they come. I think so.
- 15:14Speaker 3: I mean, I was thinking about that last night for
- 15:16Speaker 3: all the, the arrows and slings and, and, and torches
- 15:19Speaker 3: that coach LaFleur gets thrown us away. And there are many,
- 15:22Speaker 3: as you, as you fans know by Packer fans, that
- 15:25Speaker 3: was sort of masterful clock manipulation last night. So he
- 15:27Speaker 3: clearly had a mastery of the, of the ins and
- 15:31Speaker 3: outs of the rules of the situation knew what was
- 15:33Speaker 3: going to help his team, you know, Or were the
- 15:36Speaker 3: Jets just complicit?
- 15:37Speaker 6: I was going to say, I don't know that it
- 15:38Speaker 6: was fully there. I think it just kind of unfolded.
- 15:40Speaker 7: Once you realize that it's happening, he's like, hey, I'm
- 15:42Speaker 7: just going to try to do it again and see
- 15:43Speaker 7: if they pick it up.
- 15:44Speaker 3: Well, I'd like to think that he took advantage of it, too, though.
- 15:48Speaker 3: I mean, I think there's both sides of it, but
- 15:49Speaker 3: you're right.
- 15:49Speaker 6: He took advantage of it, but how could you not?
- 15:51Speaker 6: You know, it's like he... I don't know that there were.
- 15:55Speaker 5: The Packers didn't like set a trap for Aaron Glenn
- 15:57Speaker 5: or anything like.
- 15:58Speaker 7: The two, the two delay of games to take it
- 16:00Speaker 7: from 30 to two seconds would be like that part of, yes,
- 16:03Speaker 7: you're right. They could have taken the timeout at one 11.
- 16:06Speaker 7: I think it more tells what he thought about his
- 16:08Speaker 7: football team.
- 16:08Speaker 6: The Jets had two timeouts left, if I'm not mistaken.
- 16:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 16:11Speaker 7: So they would have had one timeout with about 55
- 16:13Speaker 7: seconds to go. They also would have had to have
- 16:14Speaker 7: that kicker Turner try to catch the ball where He
- 16:16Speaker 7: muffed two punts early in the game. So, I mean, there's,
- 16:19Speaker 7: I would, I would give Aaron Glenn a little defense there,
- 16:21Speaker 7: but I don't know that he deserves too much of it,
- 16:24Speaker 7: but to take it from 31 down to two seconds was,
- 16:27Speaker 7: was the best part of it. And then to be
- 16:29Speaker 7: able to capitalize at the end. I mean, they take
- 16:31Speaker 7: the ball. You say, thank you very much. They get
- 16:34Speaker 7: called for a couple of holds. Maybe the funniest part
- 16:36Speaker 7: of the entire game is, and the one that I
- 16:39Speaker 7: would have bet a large sum of money would not
- 16:41Speaker 7: have been the case. that the jets ended up with
- 16:44Speaker 7: more penalty yards in the Packers. Now 13 flags compared
- 16:48Speaker 7: to the 14 accepted ones on the Packers. I think
- 16:50Speaker 7: they had four or five declined for 133 yards for
- 16:54Speaker 7: the green and gold one 56 for the jets. And
- 16:57Speaker 7: the biggest reason is because of the couple of pass
- 16:59Speaker 7: interference calls that Matthew Golden was able to draw.
- 17:02Speaker 6: I mean, the numbers don't and.
- 17:04Speaker 7: The fantasy football players wouldn't be super fired up with
- 17:06Speaker 7: four catches for 58 yards, but it doesn't really tell
- 17:09Speaker 7: the story of the impact that he had because he
- 17:11Speaker 7: The two biggest plays I think that he had were
- 17:13Speaker 7: the flags that he drew.
- 17:15Speaker 3: Yeah, he had a big game yesterday, and he had
- 17:17Speaker 3: the big third down conversion. It's the only one for
- 17:18Speaker 3: the game, I think, for the Packers late in that
- 17:21Speaker 3: final drive. And in that overtime drive, he had that
- 17:24Speaker 3: nice swing pass. And that was the other thing I
- 17:26Speaker 3: was impressed with LaFleur is that he got the swing
- 17:29Speaker 3: pass to Brooks. And then that one outside of Golden
- 17:32Speaker 3: when they really hadn't gone to too much of that stuff.
- 17:34Speaker 3: So it was a little wrinkle when the Packers needed
- 17:36Speaker 3: it the most. Those were a couple of big plays. And, yeah,
- 17:38Speaker 3: stepping up when Jaden Reed went down, I thought Matthew
- 17:41Speaker 3: Golden had a really good game. So a bright spot
- 17:42Speaker 3: there for sure. And you're right, Billy, those long PIs,
- 17:46Speaker 3: I mean, he was definitely putting, you know, the defense
- 17:49Speaker 3: on their heels there, beating them and got rewarded for it.
- 17:52Speaker 3: So those things won't show up in his stat sheet.
- 17:55Speaker 3: Although maybe they should. I was thinking about that last night.
- 17:57Speaker 3: But definitely huge, huge impacts in the game. And you're right, Billy,
- 18:01Speaker 3: because of that push the penalty yards, which is kind
- 18:03Speaker 3: of funny. When you think about the way that game
- 18:05Speaker 3: was going, that they ended up with more penalty yards.
- 18:08Speaker 3: So definitely a lot to go over in this game.
- 18:10Speaker 3: And we have a lot of comments coming in already.
- 18:12Speaker 6: Yes, Nicolay talking text line 877-794-1973. Gets you in. Rough
- 18:14Speaker 6: day for Bears fans. Alex Bregman got hit in the
- 18:16Speaker 6: face standing on deck.
- 18:25Speaker 7: I'm watching Brian Flores do the skull chant walking off
- 18:28Speaker 7: the field at Soldier Field.
- 18:29Speaker 6: Oh, baby, man. Could somebody give him a head coaching
- 18:32Speaker 6: job in the AFC South? He has aura, man. I
- 18:35Speaker 6: got to say, I don't like saying this about Vikings,
- 18:37Speaker 6: but Brian Flores.
- 18:38Speaker 7: Just seems like a great new coach for, I don't know,
- 18:42Speaker 7: maybe the.
- 18:44Speaker 6: Houston, Texas got a pretty good one. We got to
- 18:46Speaker 6: find one. Titans. Got to find one.
- 18:47Speaker 2: Ah, solid.
- 18:48Speaker 6: Yeah, solid's going to get one year and he's out. Yeah, yeah.
- 18:50Speaker 6: There you go. It would be higher than him.
- 18:51Speaker 2: I still can't.
- 18:52Speaker 6: It would be one year and he's probably out. I mean, like,
- 18:53Speaker 6: come on. Get a different job, Flores.
- 18:55Speaker 3: Right?
- 18:56Speaker 5: So, let's... Get out of there. Let's enjoy ourselves. We'll
- 18:58Speaker 5: fire up the game balls and kicks to the balls machine.
- 19:01Speaker 5: Dolph is off today. He was at Soldier Field. Tough
- 19:03Speaker 5: day to be at that game as a Bears fan.
- 19:05Speaker 6: Yeah, we got to let him take. So he's got
- 19:07Speaker 6: the day of mourning and recovery.
- 19:09Speaker 5: But we'll take your game balls and kicks to the
- 19:12Speaker 5: balls as we move forward on the program. We'll talk to,
- 19:15Speaker 5: we'll have a 100-bomb guard recap of the Brewers' victory.
- 19:17Speaker 2: 3-0.
- 19:18Speaker 5: Brewers win, Badgers win, Packers win. This is one of
- 19:20Speaker 5: those 10% Mondays. Let's enjoy ourselves.
- 19:23Speaker 6: You're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. Hey, that's
- 19:32Speaker 6: how you finish, boys.
- 19:36Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, man.
- 19:36Speaker 2: I love the fight of this group. I love the
- 19:39Speaker 2: fight of this group.
- 19:40Speaker 1: And you know what?
- 19:41Speaker 4: When one side wasn't going well, the other side had
- 19:45Speaker 4: each other's backs.
- 19:47Speaker 2: And that's what it takes, man.
- 19:49Speaker 6: That's what it takes. Everybody looking in.
- 19:51Speaker 1: The mirror, focusing on one play at a time, seeing
- 19:55Speaker 1: what we can do better.
- 19:56Speaker 5: All right?
- 19:57Speaker 2: Let's go. Pack on three. One, two, three.
- 19:58Speaker 7: Pack.
- 20:00Speaker 6: Oh, fired up. Armin loves those behind-the-scenes videos. Yeah, a
- 20:04Speaker 6: little locker room stuff. A little locker room.
- 20:06Speaker 2: Love that.
- 20:07Speaker 6: Yes, indeed. Good job packing social, yeah.
- 20:09Speaker 5: The game balls and kicks the balls be flowing on
- 20:10Speaker 5: the huddle very shortly. 877-794-1973 to the NicoletLaw.com talk and
- 20:16Speaker 5: text line. Packers beat the Jets. Badgers wallop Western Illinois.
- 20:22Speaker 5: Just roundhoused them in the second quarter. A somewhat shaky start.
- 20:25Speaker 5: And Michigan got off to a somewhat shaky start as well.
- 20:29Speaker 5: So it's not, that was not out of the realm.
- 20:31Speaker 5: It was a little unsettling, though, the way that game
- 20:33Speaker 5: started for the Badgers. Yeah, they didn't have Carter Cheeks.
- 20:36Speaker 7: That was the guy that scored the first touchdown for UTEP,
- 20:39Speaker 7: who was just all alone, just splitting the safeties.
- 20:43Speaker 6: He scored, and I think they were up 14-7.
- 20:46Speaker 7: Noah Kim and the Eastern Michigan Eagles were up 7-0,
- 20:49Speaker 7: and then Colton Joseph threw a Kyler Murray-esque just bad pick.
- 20:55Speaker 6: And you're sitting here saying, it's going to be an
- 20:58Speaker 6: interesting postgame show. Interesting postgame show.
- 21:02Speaker 7: For the individuals that did make it in now, it
- 21:04Speaker 7: was a, a bit of a lightly attended Saturday gathering
- 21:08Speaker 7: there at the camp because of the wind and rain
- 21:11Speaker 7: conditions that were none too favorable to those hanging out
- 21:14Speaker 7: in the, in the stands. But the Badgers at one
- 21:17Speaker 7: point put up drew four touchdowns and eight offensive plays.
- 21:22Speaker 7: Think you're going to win a decent amount of games
- 21:23Speaker 7: where you do that.
- 21:24Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 21:25Speaker 7: 75-yard touchdown, two-play, 48-yard touchdown drive, one-play, 50-yard touchdown drive.
- 21:32Speaker 6: Being able to capitalize like that works out very well.
- 21:34Speaker 6: Makes it a lot easier.
- 21:35Speaker 3: Yeah. Poncho Day turned into Domination Day, and the Badgers,
- 21:38Speaker 3: excuse me, needed one like that. I felt the glimmer
- 21:42Speaker 3: of hope. I said, something good is going to happen
- 21:43Speaker 3: in this game because we haven't had a lighting delay yet.
- 21:45Speaker 3: Because I don't think they're really, you know, you were
- 21:47Speaker 3: worried about that.
- 21:47Speaker 6: I know, Billy, right? That the lightning delays might happen.
- 21:51Speaker 7: We were a tick worried. We were a tick worried.
- 21:53Speaker 7: And now, luckily, that kind of phased out in the morning.
- 21:56Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:57Speaker 6: It was pretty clear that wasn't going to be an issue.
- 21:59Speaker 6: But it was a soaker. It was a soaker. It
- 22:01Speaker 6: was wet.
- 22:01Speaker 2: Pause.
- 22:02Speaker 6: But I thought it was going to be a good sign.
- 22:03Speaker 6: And it definitely was for the Badgers.
- 22:05Speaker 3: Not like what happened in Tampa yesterday, which was, man,
- 22:08Speaker 3: that was the situation.
- 22:09Speaker 6: They had the long delays. But, yeah, it was nice
- 22:11Speaker 6: to see the Badgers get a win like that. Now,
- 22:12Speaker 6: that's the domination.
- 22:13Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 22:14Speaker 3: Fans are looking for, right, against the directional. Even though
- 22:16Speaker 3: you're right, Noah Kim and his team is tough, and
- 22:19Speaker 3: they came in and made an early mark.
- 22:21Speaker 7: Well, I mean, Noah Kim is doing what I believe
- 22:23Speaker 7: it was Tom. I could be messing up my movies here,
- 22:27Speaker 7: but he goes to school for seven years. A lot
- 22:29Speaker 7: of people do that.
- 22:30Speaker 6: Yeah. They're called doctors. Yeah.
- 22:32Speaker 2: You got it.
- 22:33Speaker 6: That was coming. Or Noah Kim.
- 22:34Speaker 2: Right.
- 22:35Speaker 7: Seventh year player. He's been in college for a long time.
- 22:38Speaker 7: He actually he actually sat out and opted out of
- 22:41Speaker 7: the COVID year. So he's had a long time in
- 22:43Speaker 7: school and at one point beat out Sam Levitt for
- 22:46Speaker 7: the starting job at Michigan State. So he came decently accomplished.
- 22:51Speaker 7: But the best thing was Colton Joseph actually being able to.
- 22:54Speaker 7: Locate the football. I mean, my man was set the
- 22:58Speaker 7: Badger school record for passing yards and a half. My
- 23:01Speaker 7: man Vince grabbed that stat, dug that thing up on
- 23:04Speaker 7: the third quarter with his 302 passing yards. So that
- 23:07Speaker 7: was an exciting day at Camp Randall and always made better. Drew,
- 23:11Speaker 7: when while postgame is going on, you're seeing and being
- 23:14Speaker 7: able to enjoy. like the shortest Brewers game of all time.
- 23:18Speaker 7: Cause that one, nothing decision there in the middle of
- 23:21Speaker 7: the Brewers sweep in Baltimore, you blink and you missed
- 23:24Speaker 7: Robert Gasser seven shutout innings there on Saturday night.
- 23:27Speaker 6: That was quick.
- 23:27Speaker 3: That's where you want half your money. That game was
- 23:29Speaker 3: so quick. I was like, this game's already over.
- 23:31Speaker 6: When did it start?
- 23:32Speaker 7: I got the notification that the game was over. I
- 23:34Speaker 7: was like, wait a second. That was supposed to be
- 23:35Speaker 7: my ride home viewing.
- 23:36Speaker 6: Okay.
- 23:36Speaker 2: Nevermind.
- 23:37Speaker 6: Or listening.
- 23:38Speaker 3: Yeah, that was something else. And another one yesterday, another shutout. Okay,
- 23:42Speaker 3: so we had a lot of great texts in here.
- 23:44Speaker 3: I don't know what Tommy and Stalas is referring to, Billy.
- 23:46Speaker 3: Billy was kind of big time on Saturday for when
- 23:48Speaker 3: I was listening to. I mean, you're always big time.
- 23:51Speaker 3: I don't know what that was about.
- 23:52Speaker 6: I don't know. Hopefully it was good then. I don't
- 23:54Speaker 6: know if you knew that reference. We'll get a little
- 23:56Speaker 6: more clarification maybe. But I hope it was a good thing.
- 23:58Speaker 6: I'm sure it was a good thing.
- 24:00Speaker 3: Pink Flamingos was the first to chime in on the
- 24:03Speaker 3: YouTube comments today. Thanks, by the way, for watching on YouTube, Twitter,
- 24:06Speaker 3: and X. As everybody knows, you can chime in on
- 24:08Speaker 3: the video stream as well. She said, oh, I was like, well, OK,
- 24:11Speaker 3: it's one way to start. It's not a very pretty win.
- 24:13Speaker 3: I was on a flight home yesterday from Florida during
- 24:16Speaker 3: the games. We flew into O'Hare and our plane was
- 24:19Speaker 3: filled with Bears fans. We landed right when they lost.
- 24:21Speaker 3: It was hilarious.
- 24:22Speaker 6: Now, there you go. That's the moment you need right there.
- 24:25Speaker 6: Pink Flamingo.
- 24:26Speaker 3: So I'm glad it turned out pretty well for you yesterday.
- 24:29Speaker 3: Not only to get the Packers win and enjoy that,
- 24:31Speaker 3: but a little schadenfreude on Bears fans.
- 24:33Speaker 6: Big time.
- 24:34Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 24:35Speaker 3: I mean, that was an interesting one yesterday. We'll get
- 24:37Speaker 3: into the rest of the NFL.
- 24:39Speaker 6: Yeah, for sure.
- 24:40Speaker 3: A good part of that moment for Packers fans yesterday.
- 24:43Speaker 5: Packers win. Badgers win. Brewers win. When's the last time
- 24:46Speaker 5: this happened? The planet's aligned like this.
- 24:48Speaker 6: It's been a long time.
- 24:49Speaker 5: Let's enjoy it while we have it. Brewers win number 98.
- 24:53Speaker 5: Franchise record 100. Well within reach at this juncture.
- 24:57Speaker 6: Right in the eyes. Oh, my goodness.
- 24:59Speaker 5: I visited Butchie's Den with our pal Brian Butch last week.
- 25:03Speaker 5: And he asked me, is 100 games meaningful? Does it
- 25:06Speaker 5: have anything meaning? And I said, well, yes and no.
- 25:08Speaker 5: Because if you win, the number one seed is what matters.
- 25:12Speaker 5: But I did say that if the Brewers got to 100,
- 25:14Speaker 5: it was very unlikely the Dodgers would catch them. And therefore,
- 25:19Speaker 5: ipso facto, yeah, it's important because you want to win
- 25:22Speaker 5: that number one seed. It's their last goal left. And
- 25:24Speaker 5: I thought to accomplish that, they'd have to put up
- 25:27Speaker 5: 100 wins.
- 25:27Speaker 7: So.
- 25:29Speaker 5: In and of itself, 100 wins doesn't mean anything. It's
- 25:31Speaker 5: a nice number. The Brewers have never done it. It's
- 25:33Speaker 5: a mark of excellence for a baseball team because you
- 25:36Speaker 5: can't say you cheat your way or.
- 25:38Speaker 6: Fluke your way to a 100-win season in baseball. You
- 25:41Speaker 6: are good. That's a clean one. There's never been a
- 25:44Speaker 6: bad team that won 100 games.
- 25:45Speaker 1: Agree.
- 25:46Speaker 6: Not like the 87 Twins or something like that, right? No.
- 25:49Speaker 5: Like I said, in and of itself doesn't mean anything,
- 25:53Speaker 5: but it means something if it gets you the number
- 25:55Speaker 5: one overall seed overall.
- 25:56Speaker 6: Whatever it takes.
- 25:57Speaker 1: Right.
- 25:57Speaker 6: So in a hundred, go ahead.
- 25:59Speaker 7: And how about us having the conversations that Murph also
- 26:01Speaker 7: to like mentioning it is somewhat difficult. We learned that
- 26:05Speaker 7: it's not as easy to keep these guys engage the
- 26:08Speaker 7: wrong way of putting it, but pushing while also knowing
- 26:11Speaker 7: that you can start backing off. Well, you get a
- 26:13Speaker 7: three inning start from Mizorowski yesterday and a three, nothing
- 26:15Speaker 7: shut out. And they've won 10 of 12 since that
- 26:19Speaker 7: cub series, like starting with that cub series, the second
- 26:23Speaker 7: of the seven game series, in 10 day cub series,
- 26:26Speaker 7: they've won 10 of their last 12. They clinched the
- 26:29Speaker 7: division in the midst there. And you almost feel like you're,
- 26:34Speaker 7: just ripping pages off the calendar and it's going out. You're,
- 26:37Speaker 7: you're not enjoying as much of it because you already
- 26:40Speaker 7: have that thing locked up and you're now just almost
- 26:42Speaker 7: buying time and waiting instead of just buying time and
- 26:45Speaker 7: getting by there.
- 26:47Speaker 6: They're getting hot and making hay here at the close.
- 26:49Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 26:49Speaker 6: Which was, I think I'm blanking now. What did it,
- 26:52Speaker 6: cause we won so many divisions.
- 26:53Speaker 2: It was at.
- 26:54Speaker 3: 21 or 23 where they kind of had that going,
- 26:57Speaker 3: then sputtered that last two weeks.
- 26:58Speaker 7: That was 21 because it was after the Burns hater
- 27:02Speaker 7: combined no hitter.
- 27:03Speaker 6: Yeah, that's what it was. I think they clinched on
- 27:04Speaker 6: like September 11th. I'm not a big.
- 27:06Speaker 3: Proponent that you have to get in hot to stay hot.
- 27:09Speaker 3: Like I know there's some anecdotal evidence, but usually it's
- 27:12Speaker 3: like what happens in the playoffs is independent of the
- 27:14Speaker 3: regular season. However, it did have a feeling that maybe
- 27:18Speaker 3: this team sputtering was going to be assigned. So you
- 27:20Speaker 3: can't really say you're worried about that right now, the
- 27:22Speaker 3: way they continue to win there. And I think it
- 27:24Speaker 3: helps to have that carrot to chase. personally of a
- 27:27Speaker 3: hundred or, you know, getting home field and getting the
- 27:29Speaker 3: buy and things like that. I do think it helps,
- 27:31Speaker 3: but yeah, you're right, Billy. And, and drew like this,
- 27:33Speaker 3: you know, obviously now they're saying the franchise record, they're
- 27:36Speaker 3: in good shape to get a hundred. You can put
- 27:38Speaker 3: a stamp on that. And I guess the way I
- 27:40Speaker 3: think of it is, is it's how important is it?
- 27:42Speaker 3: It's a fun thing for fans. It's, it's sort of
- 27:44Speaker 3: a novelty, but it's also, it's an accomplishment that one
- 27:47Speaker 3: day you can hang your hat on, especially if you
- 27:49Speaker 3: reach the heights that you want to reach and try
- 27:51Speaker 3: and win a world series. can say, Hunter wins, World Series,
- 27:54Speaker 3: this was the best season. So definitely something fun to
- 27:59Speaker 3: shoot for. Not necessarily important, but fun to shoot for.
- 28:02Speaker 5: The next goal is the first round bye. Magic number
- 28:05Speaker 5: for that is one. Any victory or by the Brewers
- 28:09Speaker 5: or lost by the Braves gets the Brewers a first
- 28:12Speaker 5: round bye.
- 28:12Speaker 6: Should be in it. That hay is in the barn.
- 28:15Speaker 5: Then for the number one seed, the magic number is
- 28:18Speaker 5: four here in the closing week with six games left.
- 28:22Speaker 5: Any combination of four victories by the Brewers and losses
- 28:25Speaker 5: by the Dodgers gives the Brewers the number one seed.
- 28:27Speaker 6: Man, you start looking around the NL.
- 28:29Speaker 7: I know we've been mentioning it a couple of times,
- 28:31Speaker 7: just like how good the league is in and of itself.
- 28:34Speaker 7: Just look at the L10 columns for all the teams
- 28:37Speaker 7: that are going to be in the playoffs. The top
- 28:39Speaker 7: five right now, Brewers eight and two in their last 10,
- 28:42Speaker 7: Dodgers seven and three, Braves seven and three, Cubs six
- 28:45Speaker 7: and four. Bregman, scary situation yesterday in Cincinnati for the Cubs.
- 28:49Speaker 7: Padres nine and one Philadelphia is the only team that's
- 28:53Speaker 7: kind of limping in there. They're four and six in
- 28:56Speaker 7: their last 10, but everybody hitting a stride, everybody feeling
- 28:59Speaker 7: good and playing well right now, it's going to be
- 29:01Speaker 7: a dog fight in this NL. So get yourself out
- 29:04Speaker 7: of one of those series. I'll wait the winter of
- 29:06Speaker 7: that right now. It would be Cubs hosting the San
- 29:09Speaker 7: Diego Padres, just like it was last year for that
- 29:12Speaker 7: three game wildcard series. And then, Hey, Saturday night's okay
- 29:15Speaker 7: for fighting. We'll be hanging out waiting. Homecoming Saturday in
- 29:18Speaker 7: Madison and game one NLDS Saturday in Milwaukee.
- 29:22Speaker 6: Pretty good day to have. It's going to be a
- 29:23Speaker 6: fun fall. That's for sure.
- 29:25Speaker 3: This is when the sports equinox comes together. A couple
- 29:27Speaker 3: of YouTube comments. They're kind of opposite. So I'll read both,
- 29:30Speaker 3: but they both start with the morning fence gents. And
- 29:32Speaker 3: then one morning fellows, which I enjoy a real wild
- 29:35Speaker 3: troop on YouTube morning.
- 29:37Speaker 2: Gents.
- 29:37Speaker 6: I sure hope the crew can go all the way.
- 29:39Speaker 6: Let me do.
- 29:40Speaker 3: This Packers team was only going to let us down
- 29:42Speaker 3: this year. A win is a win, but yikes.
- 29:43Speaker 6: It was not deserved.
- 29:44Speaker 2: Yeah. But you know what?
- 29:45Speaker 6: This is the NFL. Sometimes you just got to get.
- 29:47Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 29:48Speaker 6: Got to roll with it. Paul from Kenosha, real quick.
- 29:49Speaker 6: Good morning, fellas. What's up? A victory is a victory.
- 29:51Speaker 6: No matter how ugly it might have been, I listened
- 29:53Speaker 6: to it on the radio. So how did it look? Well,
- 29:56Speaker 6: it probably looked the same, but I like that opposite opinion.
- 29:58Speaker 6: A win's a win. It might not be ugly, but
- 30:01Speaker 6: we got one.
- 30:02Speaker 3: That's true.
- 30:02Speaker 6: Two diametrically opposed kind of perspectives there.
- 30:05Speaker 7: Well, any kind of ugly game can always be made
- 30:08Speaker 7: prettier by listening to it with Wayne and Larry. I
- 30:10Speaker 7: think the best in the cleanest example of the ugliness
- 30:15Speaker 7: and the disjointed effort yesterday in New Jersey was the
- 30:21Speaker 7: greatest example of it was listening to Wayne and Larry
- 30:24Speaker 7: and Larry saying, we got to focus, fellas. Because you
- 30:29Speaker 7: could hear the frustration in Larry McCarron's voice. Nobody sees
- 30:32Speaker 7: more practice and has watched more Packers football than Larry McCarron.
- 30:36Speaker 6: Well, stay tuned. That might come back up, by the way.
- 30:38Speaker 6: If you think you have. I got bad news for you.
- 30:41Speaker 6: You haven't.
- 30:42Speaker 7: No, you have not seen more football than the Packers
- 30:44Speaker 7: football than Larry McCarron. And he loves the green and gold.
- 30:48Speaker 7: And when they're doing that and playing that poorly and
- 30:51Speaker 7: out of character up on the line of scrimmage and
- 30:55Speaker 7: that disjointed with the penalties, he was very frustrated. It
- 30:59Speaker 7: was a frustrating day. I mean, they had six penalties
- 31:01Speaker 7: in the first half. I didn't think they could be outdone.
- 31:04Speaker 7: They did that in the second half. Somehow they got seven.
- 31:07Speaker 7: And it felt like in the first half, Drew, They
- 31:09Speaker 7: were just all big penalties. The Bullard one set just
- 31:12Speaker 7: such an ugly tone. You get a great PBU off
- 31:16Speaker 7: the field.
- 31:17Speaker 6: And here we go again. Give them a fresh set.
- 31:20Speaker 7: You had to get over and get out of your
- 31:22Speaker 7: own way yesterday, and once they finally were able to
- 31:24Speaker 7: do that in the final eight minutes, they were able
- 31:26Speaker 7: to get out of there with a dub.
- 31:27Speaker 6: Yeah, that was.
- 31:31Speaker 5: Just the roller coaster we're riding. The season, that's an
- 31:35Speaker 5: inflection point. Now we can just, it's in the past.
- 31:38Speaker 5: They won as they were supposed to. The season was
- 31:40Speaker 5: hanging in the balance, Billy. Oh, dude, they were on
- 31:43Speaker 5: life support.
- 31:43Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 31:45Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 31:47Speaker 5: Ain't no victory over Atlanta that could have erased the
- 31:50Speaker 5: stench of an 0-2 start with a loss to the
- 31:52Speaker 5: Jets and the Meadowlands.
- 31:54Speaker 7: No, especially a loss where you gave up eight of
- 31:56Speaker 7: 19 third-down conversions, too. I mean, like that's a big thing.
- 32:01Speaker 7: The Packers defense, I thought played well yesterday. They didn't
- 32:04Speaker 7: get off the field a ton in between the twenties,
- 32:07Speaker 7: but when they desperately needed to, they did.
- 32:09Speaker 6: Yeah, you're right.
- 32:10Speaker 7: That game is a, that's one that sits with you
- 32:12Speaker 7: and does not go away. Like that guy that decides
- 32:15Speaker 7: to go and sit down for 20 minutes in the
- 32:17Speaker 7: airplane bathroom.
- 32:18Speaker 6: That one doesn't go away until we land. That one's
- 32:20Speaker 6: sitting with you.
- 32:21Speaker 2: Oh man.
- 32:22Speaker 6: At least he went... Well, yeah, at least it was... No,
- 32:24Speaker 6: it's not at least he went and at least he
- 32:26Speaker 6: feels better. No, no, I didn't say that. I said
- 32:28Speaker 6: at least if he... Well... I said some of.
- 32:31Speaker 2: These planes have multiple.
- 32:31Speaker 6: No, you can't spray an aerosol can in a plane, Armin.
- 32:34Speaker 6: That's against federal guidelines.
- 32:36Speaker 3: At least if you know he's been there for a while,
- 32:37Speaker 3: it's like, all right, I'm going to avoid that one.
- 32:39Speaker 6: That's hopefully you're taking a plane with multiple. But you're right, Billy. Sorry,
- 32:42Speaker 6: we're not all on these fancy chats. But the third
- 32:46Speaker 6: down thing. Multi-bathroom? I know.
- 32:48Speaker 3: I'm glad you mentioned it, and we'll get into it.
- 32:50Speaker 3: It's becoming a burgeoning, burgeoning issue for the Packers. A
- 32:52Speaker 3: lot of people mentioned it already, this third down situation
- 32:54Speaker 3: on both ends.
- 32:56Speaker 6: This trend's got to change, so. Maybe that'll be one
- 32:59Speaker 6: of our collective kicks.
- 33:00Speaker 5: Yeah, that could be. Game balls and kicks, we're holstering
- 33:03Speaker 5: them up. You can send them early if you'd like.
- 33:05Speaker 5: 877-794-1973 to get you in.
- 33:10Speaker 6: When we come back, should we spin through Hunter's recap
- 33:12Speaker 6: of a 3-0 shutout at Camden Yards? What a weekend.
- 33:16Speaker 6: Back-to-back shutouts for the Brewers pitching staff.
- 33:18Speaker 5: When Miz pitches, you don't expect to see a line
- 33:21Speaker 5: of six relievers coming out of the pen after him.
- 33:23Speaker 5: But they all pitch scoreless. They all turn in scoreless work.
- 33:28Speaker 5: And the Burrs kind of are setting Miz up. Maybe
- 33:30Speaker 5: he'll get one more long one.
- 33:32Speaker 6: Yeah, and listen, Kyle Harrison, he even got an out.
- 33:35Speaker 6: He even got an out. Yeah, because Garrett Mitchell saved
- 33:39Speaker 6: him with the life raft there. That was poor Kyle, man.
- 33:42Speaker 6: He walked the guy and got the out. You're right.
- 33:44Speaker 7: D.L. Hall said, this is what you guys are missing.
- 33:47Speaker 7: Hope you enjoyed that one year of Corbin Burns.
- 33:48Speaker 6: And then McGill was saved number 29.
- 33:51Speaker 2: Beautiful.
- 33:51Speaker 6: We need him to get the clean one. Nine pitches.
- 33:54Speaker 6: Get a bottle. That was important. Impressive. Impressive victory. Impressive weekend.
- 33:58Speaker 5: Impressive season for your Milwaukee Brewers, who are now 98
- 34:02Speaker 5: and 58.
- 34:05Speaker 6: Six games left. Only the biggest.
- 34:06Speaker 7: In the 2026 championship. As long as they get to
- 34:10Speaker 7: 10 games over 500, right?
- 34:11Speaker 6: That's right. First goal. Or 40. Either one of them.
- 34:14Speaker 6: Second goal, 40. 81 wins was my pantheon for once
- 34:17Speaker 6: in my life.
- 34:18Speaker 3: Unreal.
- 34:19Speaker 6: Unreal.
- 34:21Speaker 5: Yep, Brewers 98-58. Let that sink in with a week left.
- 34:25Speaker 5: Off day today, six games left in the regular season.
- 34:28Speaker 5: Now it's the point where if you don't win 100,
- 34:30Speaker 5: it's like, what the hell happened? Now we will be upset.
- 34:32Speaker 5: You went 1-5 in the last week? That would lock
- 34:35Speaker 5: you down to the core. So yeah, now 100 is
- 34:39Speaker 5: a comfortable expectation for the Brewers.
- 34:43Speaker 6: Think about that. Think about saying that. I expect the
- 34:46Speaker 6: Brewers to win 100 games.
- 34:48Speaker 7: Yeah, and I mean, listen, there's Cubs fans that have
- 34:50Speaker 7: tried to tell themselves, the Brewers have won 100 games
- 34:53Speaker 7: like three years in a row.
- 34:55Speaker 6: No, they've won the division four years in a row
- 34:57Speaker 6: and beat you four years in a row.
- 34:59Speaker 7: But it just shows they've still got levels to go
- 35:02Speaker 7: and still got places that they can get even better.
- 35:04Speaker 6: That's right. And Murph making a late push for that
- 35:06Speaker 6: third straight manager of the year award. My goodness. All right.
- 35:09Speaker 3: 877-794-1973.
- 35:09Speaker 5: You are in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. Hit
- 35:16Speaker 5: us up, 877-794-1973, nicolaylaw.com, talk and text line. After the Packers'
- 35:23Speaker 5: victory and watching the Brewers grind their way through a
- 35:26Speaker 5: 3-0 shutout, I didn't have the bandwidth and I didn't
- 35:30Speaker 5: make it to the end of Sunday Night Football and
- 35:33Speaker 5: I missed some good stuff.
- 35:34Speaker 7: Yeah, I passed out right in the middle of the
- 35:38Speaker 7: fourth quarter and waking up here in the studio to
- 35:42Speaker 7: the fact that it went all the way to the
- 35:44Speaker 7: end of overtime.
- 35:45Speaker 6: Made me feel very, very good about the decision.
- 35:47Speaker 3: Yeah, I was drooling in the third, but Laura woke
- 35:49Speaker 3: me up to tell me what happened at the end.
- 35:51Speaker 3: She was pretty into this game. I was also fighting
- 35:54Speaker 3: with the antenna to try and get the reception on
- 35:56Speaker 3: this one last night, but it was really good.
- 35:58Speaker 6: Fighting with the antenna?
- 36:00Speaker 2: I was.
- 36:00Speaker 6: Well, you know, I'm a court cutter. It is 74,
- 36:02Speaker 6: didn't you know, Drew? Well, no, I'm just.
- 36:08Speaker 6: I have a court cutter.
- 36:08Speaker 3: You know, I got the antenna working on the local
- 36:10Speaker 3: channels and stuff like that, but... No, it was a
- 36:14Speaker 3: lot of action on Sunday night. These Chiefs have been
- 36:16Speaker 3: in some good games early on this season. So maybe
- 36:19Speaker 3: their offensive aura is back, as the kids say. I'm
- 36:21Speaker 3: not really sure, but some good stuff. Yeah, they didn't
- 36:24Speaker 3: have the aura in close games last year.
- 36:27Speaker 2: Right.
- 36:27Speaker 5: Funny how that happens. As predicted, that is not a
- 36:32Speaker 5: sustainable thing, folks. Again, don't ever tell me if you
- 36:36Speaker 5: want to get into an argument. Don't tell me, like,
- 36:38Speaker 5: good teams win close games. To which I'll say, so
- 36:42Speaker 5: do bad teams. It's the only games they win because
- 36:44Speaker 5: they're not good enough to blow people out. Good teams
- 36:46Speaker 5: blow people out. Look at the Brewers run differential. That's
- 36:49Speaker 5: a good team. Broncos would probably fly in the face
- 36:52Speaker 5: of that. It feels like the only wins they get
- 36:53Speaker 5: are from a ridiculous come from behind fashion as they
- 36:56Speaker 5: came back yesterday.
- 36:57Speaker 6: Which is what happened with your Chicago Bears. How'd they
- 36:59Speaker 6: do in a close game yesterday? Took one on the chin. Well,
- 37:02Speaker 6: and Ben wants the best scoring offense in history. It's
- 37:04Speaker 6: going to be tough. Well, that's tough adjustment, right? Tough adjustment.
- 37:07Speaker 6: I just had a good day. But I.
- 37:09Speaker 5: I wouldn't have thought that the Colts had that in them.
- 37:11Speaker 5: But then it's like the Colts should have won that
- 37:13Speaker 5: game probably, right? This league is crazy, man. This league
- 37:15Speaker 5: is just crazy. You just week to week, you don't
- 37:17Speaker 5: know what to expect. They look so bad. Then week one,
- 37:20Speaker 5: you're right.
- 37:20Speaker 3: They probably should have won the second one. So, you know,
- 37:22Speaker 3: in Kansas City. So you just never know. Well, it
- 37:25Speaker 3: helps when you have Jonathan Taylor.
- 37:27Speaker 6: It definitely does.
- 37:27Speaker 7: I mean, it still blows my mind that when that
- 37:31Speaker 7: dude was coming out of the draft with 6,000 yards
- 37:36Speaker 7: in three seasons. And being on, I believe not one,
- 37:41Speaker 7: but two, four by 400 relay teams that went to
- 37:46Speaker 7: the national bleeping championship that the knock on him was,
- 37:49Speaker 7: I don't know that he's got breakaway speed to get
- 37:51Speaker 7: away from guys.
- 37:51Speaker 6: In the NFL.
- 37:52Speaker 7: They look fast to me on the track, on the field.
- 37:55Speaker 7: Are we watching the same guy? Are we watching the
- 37:57Speaker 7: same player? The dude is just ultra productive, ridiculously good
- 38:01Speaker 7: human being. And he's working on his third contract right now.
- 38:04Speaker 7: And he's just still is one of the best guys
- 38:07Speaker 7: in the league. They can't give it to him enough.
- 38:10Speaker 7: And then when Pierce went down last night, you could
- 38:11Speaker 7: tell that their passing game was going to be broken.
- 38:14Speaker 7: Anybody think Laquan Treadwell.
- 38:16Speaker 6: Was still getting a check?
- 38:17Speaker 3: I saw that name, and I'm like, is that Laquan Treadwell?
- 38:19Speaker 6: Former first-round overall pick of the Minnesota Vikings back in 2016.
- 38:22Speaker 7: I saw that jersey.
- 38:24Speaker 6: I believe he was out of football for multiple years.
- 38:26Speaker 6: I said, oh, there's a different Treadwell in the league now.
- 38:28Speaker 2: Nope.
- 38:29Speaker 6: That's what I first said to myself. Different hair, but
- 38:31Speaker 6: same guy. Let's spin Hunter before we run out of time.
- 38:36Speaker 6: Let's do it. Let's do it.
- 38:37Speaker 5: Brewers in Baltimore wrapping up a crab cake weekend. They're
- 38:41Speaker 5: an off day today. Take it away, Hunter Baumgart.
- 38:44Speaker 1: Thanks, guys.
- 38:45Speaker 4: We can now say... that we are witnessing the best
- 38:49Speaker 4: regular season in Milwaukee Brewers history.
- 38:51Speaker 3: Why?
- 38:51Speaker 4: Because they won their 98th game last night, and that
- 38:54Speaker 4: means they've done something they've never done before, which is
- 38:58Speaker 4: win 98 games. They have set the franchise record with
- 39:02Speaker 4: six games to play. Also, they've never been 40 games over. 500.
- 39:07Speaker 4: They are now at 98-58. Just think about that. An
- 39:12Speaker 4: absolutely incredible season so far for the Brewers who have
- 39:15Speaker 4: an off day today, then three games in Philly, and
- 39:18Speaker 4: then three games at home against the Cardinals to finish
- 39:21Speaker 4: out the regular season. Now also historic last night was
- 39:25Speaker 4: Jackson Churrio. He stole his 20th base of the season.
- 39:29Speaker 4: He now has 20 home runs and 20 stolen bases
- 39:31Speaker 4: for the third straight season to start his career. He's
- 39:34Speaker 4: just the third player in Major League Baseball history to
- 39:37Speaker 4: start his career with three straight seasons of 20 homers
- 39:41Speaker 4: and 20 stolen bases. Julio Rodriguez and Bobby Witt Jr.
- 39:45Speaker 4: are the other two. Miz got the start. Brewers got
- 39:49Speaker 4: the win. They finished the sweep of the Orioles with
- 39:51Speaker 4: 19 straight shutout innings. They're 10-2 in their last 12.
- 39:55Speaker 4: They're 4-1 since clinching the NL Central. Stay hot, Milwaukee.
- 40:00Speaker 4: We're not sure who is going to start the game
- 40:01Speaker 4: coming up tomorrow night, but we know Logan Henderson will
- 40:04Speaker 4: start on Wednesday, TBA on Thursday. This report brought to
- 40:08Speaker 4: you by Import Minded, your trusted choice for exceptional vehicle
- 40:10Speaker 4: care on South 27th, just north of 894. The Brewers
- 40:14Speaker 4: have set the franchise record for the most wins in
- 40:17Speaker 4: a season in franchise history. Back to you guys.
- 40:21Speaker 6: Thank you, Hunter Baumgart. The excitement and the twinkle in
- 40:23Speaker 6: his voice, man. That was awesome. Yeah, well, smell the roses.
- 40:27Speaker 6: 98 wins for your Milwaukee Brewers.
- 40:31Speaker 7: Listen, franchise records are good to have, and it's also
- 40:33Speaker 7: nice to be proven right. We said that they would
- 40:35Speaker 7: be a better team than they were a year ago,
- 40:37Speaker 7: and many people said, well, it's hard to win 97 games.
- 40:41Speaker 7: Hard to be better than they were last year. I
- 40:43Speaker 7: don't know that I'm going to say they're going to
- 40:44Speaker 7: win more games than they did last year. Well, they did.
- 40:46Speaker 7: They have, and they are better. They have a Cy
- 40:49Speaker 7: Young Award winner. They have a bullpen that is fully
- 40:52Speaker 7: loaded with a ton of lefties, probably more than most
- 40:55Speaker 7: bullpens do at this point in time. It's leverage arms,
- 40:58Speaker 7: and they're getting hot at the right time with the
- 41:00Speaker 7: best offensive guys that they can have. Jackson Churio hitting
- 41:03Speaker 7: fire right now. My goodness, is he starting to roll?
- 41:07Speaker 6: Need that. You know, yeah, that's the thing.
- 41:10Speaker 7: Someone.
- 41:10Speaker 5: was asking me about the brewers the other day. It's
- 41:12Speaker 5: like this, it does just feel different. Like I've been saying,
- 41:16Speaker 5: they can't put themselves in any better position.
- 41:19Speaker 6: You can't.
- 41:19Speaker 5: You're going to win the number one overall seed, accomplishing
- 41:22Speaker 5: all the goals. Now, does this guarantee postseason success? No,
- 41:25Speaker 5: but they're set up for it, and it does feel different.
- 41:28Speaker 6: I would have to.
- 41:29Speaker 7: A revisionist history can be a part of it, but
- 41:32Speaker 7: knowing that Yolis Chassin was going to be your number
- 41:34Speaker 7: one starter the last time you had the number one
- 41:36Speaker 7: overall seed in 2018 didn't give you a ton of confidence.
- 41:40Speaker 7: This is the hottest and, I think, best team they're
- 41:42Speaker 7: rolling in with.
- 41:43Speaker 6: I agree. You're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
