  Speaker 1: Good afternoon, Wisconsin, and welcome to The Huddle. It's time
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: to talk about the teams you love with the guys
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: you love.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: That's us. Boys, that's us. Watch us on YouTube. Build content.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Just search Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. You are looking live. Now,
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: gather around because it's time to huddle up. We know
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: exactly what we got to do.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: All right?
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: Let's go out and kick some change.
• 0:31
  Speaker 4: One, two, three. We got some big plays coming.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: What the hell's going on out here?
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: Yellow Weasel. We're calling the plays, all right?
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: It is time.
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: What do you think you are? I am.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: With Drew Olson.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: When he spoke, he commanded your attention and he commanded
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: your respect.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: Bill Schmidt.
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: That son of a gun is thick.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: And Armin Sarian.
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: Daddy Sarian.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Welcome to the huddle.
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: Let's huddle up.
• 0:59
  Speaker 5: It's Friday in the good land. Welcome into the huddle.
• 1:02
  Speaker 5: Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. Broadcasting live.
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: 920 Milwaukee, 1070 Madison.
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: Everywhere on the iHeart app, streaming live, Facebook, X, and
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: YouTube for people who want to see Billy's new hat.
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: Ooh, got that thing busted out here.
• 1:16
  Speaker 6: And now it is a little white cap for a
• 1:19
  Speaker 6: fat guy like me and a healthy sweater like myself.
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: That's a dangerous combo to bust out. I thought like
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: having a white car, it doesn't show the dirt as much.
• 1:28
  Speaker 6: The salt water, the salt that comes from this forehead
• 1:33
  Speaker 6: only calcifies it. But on special occasions like a playoff
• 1:37
  Speaker 6: Friday in WIAA, a good chance to be able to
• 1:40
  Speaker 6: bust out the champs.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Let's talk about the conundrum now with the light-colored clothing
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: and hats because I was thinking about that plus the sweatshirt. Oh,
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: by the way, guy in the street has that sweatshirt.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: I don't know if it's the real, I don't think
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: it's the real one, but he's got that cream colored sweatshirt.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: Hard to pass.
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: I drove by it. I almost swerved over on. On
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: what street? 84th and Layton by that sitcom. I almost
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: swerved across four lanes.
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: I didn't want to do that.
• 2:03
  Speaker 6: Well, there was a young man in Madison over by
• 2:04
  Speaker 6: the Clark station when I drove down there a couple
• 2:06
  Speaker 6: of weeks ago that had the sweetest win our way flag.
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: And I'm very excited to see my man tomorrow before
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: Badgers and Rutgers.
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: Is there a rally house right there, too, that you
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: could go to? Oh, very much is. There are a
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: couple of locations.
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: But Armand's tempted to go get the gas station sushi
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: or the gas station hoodie.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: I love it. They're available for purchase. Okay, the conundrum is.
• 2:30
  Speaker 6: You don't want to pay full price. And Kenny talked
• 2:32
  Speaker 6: this guy down.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: Harmon's looking for deals.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: That gives me a good deal. Now, twofer at this point.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: Champions might be fine. Put an extra O in there.
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: We're a week away from the parade and those sweet
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: cream-colored hoodies that were all the rage now.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: I don't know. Are they still cool a week later? Oh,
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: they're cool as hell. What do you mean? See, I
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: don't know.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: They put out a black one, Drew, and I think
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: that one might be a little bit cooler. You guys
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: got to wait to see if there's any cooler ones.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: But the question is, are you worried to wear it
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: because of the sweat? It's like that new pair of shoes.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: You don't want to get dirty because it's so cool,
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: but then you don't wear it. And it's like that
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: sweet jacket.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: Remember that jacket?
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: The shirt, to me, isn't as much of the sweat.
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: To me, the shirt, Drew, is the ketchup and mustard
• 3:14
  Speaker 6: and beer and relish stains that can potentially happen.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: A lot of shrapnel flying. Dangerous spots.
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: One bite of pizza that's too hot or a wing,
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: and it's going to, yeah, you're going to be.
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: I eat way too much Palermos with way too many toppings.
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: Those things to be able to drop a pepperoni right
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: there in the middle. Even oil and grease is tough,
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: but then, but you're right. It's the hat with the sweat.
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: It's the body is more of the, but in the
• 3:36
  Speaker 6: winter sweating is not that big an issue. So you're safe.
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: You're right. Winter.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: You're pretty safe in that regard. That's fair.
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: But Billy's got the sweet champions hat on the world
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: series trophy.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: Thank you. I've been waiting to bust this thing out.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: I had to show it off a little bit. I
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: like it. I like it. I like it a lot.
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: 877-794-1973 to the Nicolet law.com talk and text line. Big
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: weekend of football ahead of us. Big weekend of being champs.
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: The one-week anniversary of the parade everybody will remember for
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: the rest of their lives.
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: Yes, and as I was talking with our friend Aaron
• 4:05
  Speaker 6: Nagler today, so 750,000 people were the estimation. I firmly
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: believe this title run that we just witnessed is going
• 4:13
  Speaker 6: to be this generation's, this millennium's ice bowl. whether it's
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: how many 250,000 folks ended up going to Ferg's over
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: those three days, Drew, or, you know, in 20, 30,
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: 40 years when people are telling their grandkids about the
• 4:28
  Speaker 6: 2 million people.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: Seemingly that were at the parade. About the time that
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: they shotgunned a beer with Sal Freelick at the parade.
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's... where they actually got poked in the eye
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: by the trophy like Yellich did.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, there's no question, especially because of how many
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: people were at the watch parties. And it's going to
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: be very easy in history to tell people you were
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: at the World Series when you were only at the
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: watch party, which is something that I plan on doing.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: as enough time passes. We got a picture of Lena
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: on the World Series dugout. She sat in the dugout.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: That was pretty cool. Before one of the watch parties,
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: she'll be able to tell everybody in 30 years, hey,
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: I was there.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: Look at me. This is me at the World Series.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: She'll share it on whatever social media platform doesn't exist yet.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: I'm sure that the landscape will change a lot in
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: 30 years.
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: It'll be hardwired into our brains. You won't even have
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: to open an app. You'll just have to think about it.
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: It'll be called Google Brain.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: Pretty much. Yeah.
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: Pretty much.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: But, yeah, that's a good point.
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: It will be everybody was there and it was, you know,
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: everybody had their moment and the memories will be there.
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: Just like people, I talked to people who I was
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: on the field at 82. I was, you know, running
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: around on the field after game five when they beat
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: the Angels.
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: Holding the Brewers our World Series flag.
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: I did have someone ask me the other day, like,
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: have the Brewers... I know Murph's going under the knife
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: for his hip on Monday. I wish him the best.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: Amen.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: Having a titanium hip of my own. Best move ever.
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: Everybody asks me. He's going to be cruising. Everybody asks me,
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: was it hard? I said, there's one part that sucked
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: and that I really regret.
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: Not doing it sooner. Mm-hmm.
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: Mm-hmm. Hipping around like a jackass in pain and not
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: getting it taken care of.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: But Murph has that.
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: But for the most part, someone asked me, now Badgers
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: play a home game and they haven't played a home
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: game since the Brewers have been champions.
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: Correct. Yes.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: Will the trophy make an appearance? Are there any Brewers left?
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: I mean, Mike Vassallo might go watch the game.
• 6:19
  Speaker 6: That's a good call. Mikey Vassallo usually makes an appearance.
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: That'd be a sweet one to have. And then Lev's
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: probably working a game. I mean, Jeff Levering's back on
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: the football train. I was going to say, and he's
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: either probably got the Badgers this week or next.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: They've got the 11 a.m. Big Ten tilt as well.
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: I didn't look up.
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: The assignments, but... If Lev is there, I don't know.
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: Will the trophy make an appearance? Does it mean anything
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: if it's not a player with it? Are all the
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: players out of town? Are we still seeing Brewers in
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: the wild, or have they gone about their own Cancun
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: on three or headed to their summer home?
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: I would assume they're starting to migrate south, right? I'd
• 6:53
  Speaker 6: assume kind of like the geese, they're starting to find
• 6:55
  Speaker 6: their way over to Arizona and Florida. But could, you know,
• 6:58
  Speaker 6: I mean, Sal Freelick was in Chicago a couple of
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: days ago hanging out with the Barstool guys.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: Would it make a lot of sense for him to
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: roll down there and hang out in the, in the
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: nice South end zone?
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: Absolutely.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: It would be a good time to, yeah, this would
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: be the chance because it's definitely not going to be
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: a player.
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: I would assume day after Thanksgiving. So if you're going
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: to get that trophy here, it should be for tomorrow
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: and it might be a good time to be. Celebrate
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: our boy, Ryan Hopkins, getting that first start for the
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: Badgers coming up. First 17 and a half point number
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: might look a little different with the Badgers starting a
• 7:28
  Speaker 6: new quarterback.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: Now you get anybody from modern day. You're going to
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: start feeling good. I was just going to.
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: Say all these, all these quarterbacks are from modern day.
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: And of course he is too. I looked it up
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: just to be sure, but I'm like, is the modern
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: day kid. I think yes, it is. Newport beach, California
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: stand up.
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: And he showed, he showed some tools last week in
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: the limited time that they ended up putting them in.
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: But again, Colton Joseph not feeling himself, also not producing
• 7:50
  Speaker 6: very well. So all of those reasons are good ones
• 7:53
  Speaker 6: to be able to find the young man out onto
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: the field.
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: I don't mean to laugh. That's just a funny way
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: to say it.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: But, hey, by the way, you guys are correct on
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: the Big Ten Network call.
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: Excuse me. It is Jeff Levering. So you'll be seeing him, yeah.
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: He'll be doing that.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Well, all right.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: You'll see Levering. He'll be on the TV call, according
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: to this.
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: Snag one of their own. I'd have to have him
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: pop on with us on Monday. We probably could have
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: done it today had we looked ahead.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: Alongside Jake Butt, who's going to be the analyst.
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: The old Michigan stud. And another sideline reporter, one of
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: my favorites. Oh, God. Mrs. Jake Cronenworth, Brooke Fletcher. Oh,
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: she's back in town. She's back now. She's got to
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: see the trip.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: She sees the trophy because her husband was, we beat
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: her husband on the Padres. You know, she's salty about it.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Probably sad about the White Sox. She's does a great
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: job as a White Sox sideline reporter all year. So Brooke,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: a great professional doing a great job. So Billy's going
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: to run into all of them. Yeah, we might run
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: into Brooke down on the field. I'll let you know
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: if we do. I know that would be a very,
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: very happy moment for you. Just reporting what the assignments are. No, Brooke,
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: one of my favorites. I mean, of course, she's a
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: great professional and does a great job. Great broadcaster. Dad
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: played in the league. Son of Scott Fletcher. Born in
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: Milwaukee when Scott was playing for the Brewers.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: She's great. Anyway, yeah, so Lev will be doing the game.
• 9:16
  Speaker 6: I like their call. Jake Butzer, a really, really good one.
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: He was a really, really good player, man. He's a
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: bad boy there at Michigan. He's one of those dangerous
• 9:25
  Speaker 6: examples as to why guys don't play in bowl games anymore.
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: But for the Badgers, it's a hot one. Drew, for
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: the Packers, it's.
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: A huge one.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: I was just talking about it with our boy Aaron
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: Nagler on Carry the G Radio, the podcast. And as
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: much as inter-conference games don't necessarily jump off the page
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: as the most important thing, this is the best game
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: on the docket this weekend on an otherwise kind of
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: unappetizing slate.
• 9:51
  Speaker 6: And Drake may and Jordan love one of these two quarterbacks.
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: I assume by how I think the game's going to
• 9:56
  Speaker 6: come out is, going to take over as the talk
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: of get up the next day because you win this game,
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: you're 6-3, and you're feeling real positive about your chances
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: going forward in the second half of the year.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: This game, I've been looking at it and dissecting it
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: and flipping it around, and it's going to be a
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: one-score game either way.
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: Mm-hmm.
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: And when I'm looking at it and I see games
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: and I see teams that are evenly matched and you
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: factor in the home field and all that stuff and
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: Packers coming off a mini-bye, I default to which quarterback
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: is better. Jordan Love's going to make more plays than
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: Drake May.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: I hope so. That's where I'm at. Especially with the arm.
• 10:34
  Speaker 6: And I think the legs is going to be the
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: intriguing part where Mays made a lot of plays so
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: far this year of keeping drives alive. Because, Drew, I'm
• 10:42
  Speaker 6: with you. I think it's a one-score game, and I
• 10:44
  Speaker 6: think it's a low-scoring game. That's where the Trey Smack
• 10:48
  Speaker 6: factor will feel important coming up this weekend. Whether or
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: not it's the final play of the game comes down
• 10:55
  Speaker 6: to the right foot of Trey Smack.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: The young man was not great in October.
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: Hopefully, we're not into Toyotathon yet, but maybe he just
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: takes on that version of Jordan Love, and once the
• 11:07
  Speaker 6: calendar flips to November, he starts being nails again. It
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: feels like it's going to be a game that's going
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: to come down to the right arms. And Love, leading
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: the league in passing, turnover-worthy plays way down. Drew, do
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: his receivers make enough plays for him? Because I think
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: the way that new England's going to play, they're going
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: to play a ton of man coverage. They are going
• 11:27
  Speaker 6: to try to keep a top on the defense and take,
• 11:31
  Speaker 6: keep a lid on this offense with, with a defense
• 11:33
  Speaker 6: over the top. We'll love be patient enough coming up
• 11:36
  Speaker 6: this week, which was kind of their biggest bugaboo a
• 11:40
  Speaker 6: year ago was not being patient.
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: Just take it with the defense ends up giving you.
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: That's right. And Patriots are, Are they diminished at corner?
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: Do they have their guys back? They still have some
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: injuries back there. They still have some, they still have
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: their main guy though.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 11:54
  Speaker 6: So they still have Christian Gonzalez, uh, who is, is
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: if not the best corner in football, the second best
• 12:01
  Speaker 6: corner in football. But where they're really dinged up is
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: the pass catcher room. And to your point on the quarterbacks,
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: which one's going to play better? With no Hunter Henry,
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: no A.J. Brown, either Thursday or Friday at practice, I
• 12:14
  Speaker 6: think it's tough to think that either.
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: Of them are going to be available. And Romeo Dobbs
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: out on the shelf. It should be the Christian versus
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: Christian show, I would say, a lot. I mean, I
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: would imagine.
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: And the Patriots amazingly didn't give it away much in
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: the monsoon in Miami, but they do give it away.
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: They're high in takeovers, and the Packers take the ball away.
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: So I'm thinking that's obviously anytime a game's close, turnovers
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: will swing it. Turnovers in quarterback play, so I'm not
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: breaking any ground there.
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: But turnovers are huge in this game. Big time, especially
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: down the field.
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: And the Packers would seem to have the advantage because
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: they take the ball away at a high rate, and
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: the Patriots until last week, which was.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: Surprising, give it away at a high rate.
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: The Packers halfway through the year, more turnovers or takeaways
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: than they had all last year. And the amount of
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: interceptions that they're getting, I still think the funny one
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: is the ones that still are kind of sticking in.
• 13:04
  Speaker 6: I think a lot of Packers fans crawl are the
• 13:06
  Speaker 6: plays that they still weren't able to make. Like the
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: Evan Williams one in Detroit that is right there for
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: the taking. It's a lot of credit to Jonathan Gannon
• 13:13
  Speaker 6: and the personnel, but they already have 10 picks on
• 13:17
  Speaker 6: the year, seven of which are kind of down the field,
• 13:20
  Speaker 6: you know, 10, 15 yards into the year where Drake
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: may wants to push the ball. Could be a big
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: week for those safeties, whether it's Evan Williams reigning defensive
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: player of the month in the NFC, Or Brandon Cisse,
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: rookie of the month defensively in the NFC.
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: Both nice accolades. I don't want to hear Elijah Ponder's
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: name at all. I like that, and that's a great
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: drop right there, Drew.
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: I don't want to hear his name because they can
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: get after you too, and they're like the Packers a
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: little bit because they do a lot of that mugging
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: at the line, and then they bring pressure.
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: From different spots. Neither offensive line is all that good.
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: And they get, and the Patriots, they do get you
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: off your mark.
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: They do enough.
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: Jordan Love is as good as anybody hanging in the
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: pocket and diagnosing. You know, when he needs to get
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: the ball out and stuff, he's pretty good at avoiding sacks.
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: Very good, and very good at manipulating.
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: He's hitting a lot of hits this year because the
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: line's been a little Swiss cheesy. But for the most part,
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: when it comes to him having the sense that, oh,
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: I better get rid of this, or, oh, we're overmatched,
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: or that... The guy in my blind side is getting
• 14:20
  Speaker 5: engulfed right now. He seems to have that sense of
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: getting rid of the ball.
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm with you.
• 14:24
  Speaker 6: And they also, there are a couple of checkdowns, I think,
• 14:26
  Speaker 6: watching back Carolina that were available that could have extended
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: some drives, especially into that fourth quarter. They just don't
• 14:32
  Speaker 6: have a four minute offense. So their passing game is
• 14:34
  Speaker 6: going to have to be how they can control the
• 14:36
  Speaker 6: clock a little bit into those spots. But Drew, you
• 14:41
  Speaker 6: look at both of these teams. They're both really gettable
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: up front. You mentioned the six-man looks. That was like
• 14:46
  Speaker 6: my biggest takeaway watching the full league a week ago
• 14:50
  Speaker 6: with the Packers Thursday night game.
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: No more Brewers into the peripherals.
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: So it was just all football all the time as
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: I kick the screen right on down here.
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: Good Lord. That was a wild thing to see, though,
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: if you were watching live. That was awesome. That was phenomenal.
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: That was crazy. I just booted the heck out of
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: this thing right there.
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: I apologize, but that was probably the number one thing
• 15:11
  Speaker 6: I noticed, Drew, is as much as last year, the
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: biggest change in the common theme across the league offensively
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: felt like everybody was running as many tight ends as possible.
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: Seems like every team is trying to bring as many
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: guys up to the line of scrimmage as possible and
• 15:28
  Speaker 6: make you make a decision really, really quick. And credit
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: Brian Flores is probably the one that does it the most.
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: Packers have seen it a lot, and Jonathan Gannon has
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: started doing a ton of it as well.
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's going to be the keys to me. I mean,
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: we just went through our keys to the game, so
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: you'll hear variations of it during Doug's pregame show and
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: during Dennis and Wes and James and Mike Heller's pregame show,
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: but that's what they'll be kicking around.
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and I mean.
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: The defenses and the Packers' lack of a running game,
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: you're right, means they have to continually air it out
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: against good corners. They have to win one-on-one battles. Tucker Craft,
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: 100-yard game, could it be?
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: It very much could.
• 16:07
  Speaker 6: I think this is going to be the biggest week
• 16:10
  Speaker 6: for him, Drew, to feel as back as he's been.
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: Seems like he's trending in the right direction. Seems a
• 16:16
  Speaker 6: little bit more Tucker Craft-ish. This, with the amount of
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: man that they're going to play and The Packers are
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: going to run the deep routes.
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: Are they going to throw it deep?
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: That's going to be one of the bigger questions in
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: how patient does Love get, but how much is Kraft
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: able to break one tackle by a linebacker, whether it's
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: Ellis and company or Ponder, as you mentioned, if he's
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: not rushing the quarterback. Jack is if he's not rushing.
• 16:38
  Speaker 6: If he's not rushing, you're to the benefit because the
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: dude's unreal. He could be one broken tackle away from
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: a 25, 30-yard play, and this could be a huge
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: Tucker Kraft day where they're desperately going to need him.
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm thinking.
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: We think Sal Frelick might go to this game, might
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: go home to the Boston area.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: That would make sense. I mean, he's been in town
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: a lot. They have to go home eventually, right? That'd
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: be a fun one.
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: I mean, he's probably going to go back there because
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: he's trying to bulk up again. After hitting that home
• 17:03
  Speaker 6: run in the World Series, I've got to assume he's
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: going to be eating a lot of plates of mom's
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: spaghetti this week.
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: You've got to get carbs. You've got to carb up.
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: You've got to go back home. That's what he said.
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: He put on, what, 25 pounds a couple of off-seasons ago?
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: I remember that, yeah. He ate a lot of spaghetti.
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: I remember making the Willie Hayes maze jokes from age
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: two when he bulked up. But the thing is, you know,
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: these guys probably will be going home or going on
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: vacation eventually. I'm sure I get the sense they kind
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: of want to stay in town a little bit longer
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: and see how much they can take a hero.
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: Take a lap. Why not? Which is kind of cool.
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: I think it's about time. It's about time probably. And
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: now the weather's turning.
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: I was going to say, once you see a three
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: in the forecast, that's probably ready, said Kyle. Time to
• 17:43
  Speaker 6: head for warmer climes. Boys, we all would be really
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: celebrating in South Beach. This would be a good one
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: to go to if you are a sell.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: This will be a short offseason, or will it? We
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: don't know. That's the question.
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: Actually, another advantage for the Brewers, if spring training is
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: pushed and they get more time to recover from their deep,
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: deep playoff run, the deepest in franchise history, well then.
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: especially for the bullpen.
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: I mean, some of those dudes that got taxed a
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: year ago that you sure thought Jared.
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: Koenig was going to be a piece. He'd be a
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: little bit more time off.
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: A little bit more time. But, yeah, that was a question.
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: I thought that was a good question someone asked me.
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: Will they mark at the Badgers game tomorrow? One last hurrah.
• 18:21
  Speaker 5: Bucs play tonight. The Brewers have already made a triumphant
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: statement at a Bucs game.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: We've seen a couple of those guys out there a
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: number of different times, for sure. And the Marquette game
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: at the five serve as well. So it's been a
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: couple five serves. I guess you can't have too much
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: of it now.
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: It's never a bad time. I can't imagine anyone's going
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: to not be cheering.
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: Now, will anybody be upset if all of a sudden,
• 18:41
  Speaker 6: you know, it's like Nestor Corridor walks out with the trophy?
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: I was going to say, or Mike Vassallo and Dan Larea,
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: just with the, hey, the Brewers.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: I don't think anybody would be upset. There might be
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: a lot of, who's that guy now? We'll cheer a lot. Yeah,
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: you know, Mike Vassallo can walk out there. He brings
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: the youngster. The little guy will probably get the bigger pop.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: Oh, big time.
• 18:57
  Speaker 6: I was going to say, he's the star of the
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: Vassallo family when he rolls into Camp Randall.
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: Always a fun time. You're not trash-talking my man Nestor Cordo,
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: are you? I love Nestor. No, of course not. No,
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: I mean, listen, I don't mean.
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: If Marcus Handel walked out there with the trophy, people
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: would get excited.
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: But that's because Marcus Handel shows up anywhere. People get excited.
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: I was going to say, he could be cutting his grass.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: People would be excited about Marcus Handel.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: For sure. No, absolutely.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: I mean, hey, listen, why not? If there's anybody left, yeah,
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: if it's Vassallo, just go.
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: Our Boston correspondent, Trenny Casey, a big Brewers fan as well,
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: will join us to talk about her championship experience and
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: Packers Patriots. She's going to join us in about 45 minutes.
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: We have the voice of the Packers, Wayne Larravee. He's
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: going to join us at 425. Can't wait for that.
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: Always very excited always fun to catch up with wayne
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: 877-794-1973 nicolaylaw.com talk and text line free form friday take
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: your thoughts about badgers rutgers hackers and patriots i agree
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: with billy it's the best game on the slate i
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: think In the 325 window.
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: The most intriguing, best two teams, probably the best two quarterbacks.
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: Two teams trying to make a foothold and tell themselves
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: they can win their divisions and let's get after it.
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: And if you don't win this game, it's going to
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: be a hard case to make. Absolutely. You're in the huddle.
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: Or was he in true huddle fashion?
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: We missed the anniversary of.
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: The instant replay game by a day. It was yesterday.
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: Yesterday, 1989. So that would have been, what, 37 years
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: ago yesterday?
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: Yesterday.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: And in further review, we have a reversal. That's then
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: that highlight that's not attached on it. But listen, that
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: was one of the all-time great.
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: We have a reversal.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: That's where, after further review, the Bears still suck first originated.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: That was on a bunch of shirts.
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: He wasn't even close to being over the line. I
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: don't think so either. I was going to say, I'm
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: watching this highlight. It's not as close. He's got his
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: right foot on the 15.
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: The Bears record book or the Bears media guide always
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: had an asterisk.
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: Doesn't the entire body have to be across?
• 21:34
  Speaker 6: Not even close. Now, Armin, if you want, it wouldn't
• 21:39
  Speaker 6: be true huddle fashion, as Drew said. I did hit
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: the station account with one that actually happened 26 years
• 21:44
  Speaker 6: ago today. but that's not nearly as cool as 20
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: or 30 some years ago yesterday, because that is one
• 21:53
  Speaker 6: of the great moments and a shout out. Kevin Gallagher,
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: the NFL historian, he puts out so much of this
• 21:59
  Speaker 6: good stuff online videos and telecasts and production stuff with
• 22:03
  Speaker 6: NFL films. Cause drew as great as different production companies
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: are and networks have gotten and streaming.
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: And it's all amazing right now. They're all still second
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: place to NFL.
• 22:19
  Speaker 6: The one NFL film still puts together and the stuff
• 22:23
  Speaker 6: they have from so many years ago that is so
• 22:26
  Speaker 6: well shot and cinematically put together.
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: It is just pure gold whenever it comes to your timeline.
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: A thousand percent.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: So Billy mentioned it. I'll play it.
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: This was on this date. I probably should play it tomorrow.
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: For the show that we don't have. Stay consistent. Or
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: I guess you have money. That would be funnier.
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: Unless you want.
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: To come on and do the Badger postgame show with
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: me tomorrow after the Badgers beat up Rutgers.
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: Always available, Billy. We can do that. If you need
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: an extra hand or if you need a fill-in, I'm
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: always available. But here we go. I think a young
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: Bill Schmidt was at this game, if I'm not mistaken.
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: Here we go.
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: Oops. Bar.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Lays it up for Freeman, and it's incomplete. Or did
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: he make the catch at the 15? What are they
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: going to rule? Did he caught it? Touchdown. He did what?
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: He did what? One of the all-timers, and we know
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: our buddy Free loves that one.
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's always a fun one. You had something going on, Billy, right?
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: A funny story, like you were a kid and You
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: were sick or something like that? That was the first
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: game I ever sat with my dad at.
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: That's awesome.
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: I had gone to one other game, and he had
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: gotten an extra ticket, and I sat with my cousin.
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: So that was the first game that I actually got
• 23:37
  Speaker 6: to go to with my dad. I had a double
• 23:38
  Speaker 6: ear infection.
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what it was. Desperately didn't want to go
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: into the game.
• 23:42
  Speaker 6: My dad's holding me down in the back of the car,
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: calling my mom, and he's like, Tracy, talk some sense
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: into the kid. We're two hours away. It's pouring rain.
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: We're either going in or we're going home. So there's
• 23:53
  Speaker 6: one of the two happening, and I'm not burning the
• 23:55
  Speaker 6: money here. So we're going in. Let's figure it out.
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: Aren't you glad? And luckily we did.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: See, he knows best. What? Man, dads know best. They
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: really do.
• 24:04
  Speaker 6: Now, we have a developing situation rolling on. What are
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: we not talking enough about was our theme of yesterday's show.
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: Oh, yes.
• 24:11
  Speaker 6: One thing, Drew, that maybe should have gotten in, I
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: should have tried to crowbar in, was this Brandon Ayuk situation.
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: Out in San Francisco.
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: I don't know if you've been following or some of
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: our listeners have been. So Brandon Ayuk's been out of
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: football while still on the Niners for the last two years.
• 24:28
  Speaker 6: And played since 2024 when he was injured. Sat out
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: all last year as he's been trying to get himself
• 24:35
  Speaker 6: traded off of the 49ers.
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: Well, he's got new representation. Drew Rosenhaus. Oh, boy.
• 24:40
  Speaker 6: Drew Rosenhaus said, young man, you're going to work. We're
• 24:44
  Speaker 6: showing up at 3 o'clock. On Friday, well, in the
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: last 15 minutes, now a warrant remains active for Brandon
• 24:53
  Speaker 6: Ayuk's alleged arrest from a December speeding incident near Levi's Stadium.
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: The Santa Clara County District Attorney Office is telling NBC
• 25:04
  Speaker 6: Sports Bay Area. This comes out after yesterday when George
• 25:10
  Speaker 6: Kittle was asked at his locker, like, hey, how's it
• 25:12
  Speaker 6: going to be to see Brandon Ayuk tomorrow?
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: He goes... You sure he's making it in?
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: Oh, boy.
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: You sure he's making it into the building? I plead
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: the fifth. I don't know what's going on. Football fans
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: aren't the only ones that have been waiting.
• 25:24
  Speaker 6: This is a phenomenal reality television show playing out with,
• 25:29
  Speaker 6: right now, I think the NFC's best team and a
• 25:32
  Speaker 6: guy that I think they've completely forgotten was actually on
• 25:35
  Speaker 6: their team, but now he decides that he wants to
• 25:37
  Speaker 6: be a part.
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: Of it, apparently. He wants to get back by those
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: power lines.
• 25:40
  Speaker 6: Back by the substation and back getting a check after
• 25:43
  Speaker 6: he was running it all dry.
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: I heard that Shanahan was FaceTiming Juwan Jennings and they
• 25:47
  Speaker 5: were trying to pry him loose from Minnesota because they
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: wanted that receiver and they have a type and they
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: like the cut of his jib. They like him back
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: and he's getting no targets and no play with the
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: fighting Skull Brothers.
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: So what I mean, so there's nothing to that.
• 26:02
  Speaker 6: Apparently he said, yeah, but apparently he's, he's happy in Minnesota.
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: I don't know how, cause you're right. He's getting no targets.
• 26:07
  Speaker 6: The only guy getting less.
• 26:08
  Speaker 5: I think wasn't that straight up more tampering by Shanahan.
• 26:10
  Speaker 5: Who's driven down that street before.
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah. He might've been made time a receiver on another team.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: Maybe it was FaceTime. He was driving down there, down,
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: down the road.
• 26:18
  Speaker 6: I like what a fascinating, what a fascinating year they've had.
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: And this one just bubbles up on top of it.
• 26:25
  Speaker 6: And again, like the dude is not played in two years.
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: But wants to be back into the NFL, shockingly so,
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: because they took all his guaranteed money away. But I
• 26:35
  Speaker 6: thought it was going to play out of like the
• 26:37
  Speaker 6: Jamal Adams meme where he just tried to scan the
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: key card and didn't lock him in or didn't let
• 26:42
  Speaker 6: him in. Looks like they might just be waiting for
• 26:44
  Speaker 6: him at the front. Waiting posted up. All right, you
• 26:47
  Speaker 6: do want to show up. We appreciate it.
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: We're excited for it. Aren't the only ones waiting on you.
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: There's other people waiting on him, apparently.
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: So I don't know. I don't know who owes more
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: to more people, him or Rasheed Rice. I mean, Rasheed
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: Rice did file for bankruptcy.
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: I think. What, $ 3. 4 million or something?
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: $ 3.
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: 4 million on debts, which is impressive work.
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: If you're that young and you've accumulated that much debt,
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: that's impressive work, and you're not a doctor. You know
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: what I mean? But yeah, this is quite the story
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: playing out. So as the next page turns, or as
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: the world turns in the next soap opera, and I
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: feel like Drew Rosenhaus probably is not excited about this
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: because it's still like, okay, This is my name we're
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: using as, like, a legitimate NFL agent, like, to try
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: and negotiate for you, and this is going to happen.
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: I don't know. But, boy, another wild one. It really is.
• 27:35
  Speaker 6: But he just came out right out of the gates.
• 27:37
  Speaker 6: He said, okay, you want me to be your agent?
• 27:39
  Speaker 6: Here's the first thing. You're going to go show up.
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: Show up.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: Like, you actually have to. Like, if Drew Rosenhaus is
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: being tough on a player, you know he's got him.
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: He's got responsibilities.
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: He might be kind of sick and tired of it.
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: Fascinating one.
• 27:51
  Speaker 6: You see all of these teams and you wonder what's
• 27:53
  Speaker 6: the known quantity in the NFC. The more and more
• 27:58
  Speaker 6: it looks like it, Drew, the team it feels like
• 28:00
  Speaker 6: you know the most about might be in your own
• 28:02
  Speaker 6: NFC North. That Bears team is feeling like the most
• 28:07
  Speaker 6: convincing thing in this NFC, depending on what's going on
• 28:10
  Speaker 6: out there in Santa Clara.
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: This is the time that X does its best work.
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: Like Twitter and Billy always says, I can't believe the
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: site is still free. Some of the funniest tweets right
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: now about, you know, there are guys staking out, you know,
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: outside the facility. People saying, why isn't the Bay Area
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: Sports Channel following Ayuk's car?
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 28:27
  Speaker 6: No, he's not driving a Bronco, so I don't know
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: that it's going to be as easily identifiable.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so, man, I will see how this ends. Will
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: it end with him playing football one day is the
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: question most people have. I think it's going to eventually, Billy,
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: but I don't know. I mean, that's a good question
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: still out there.
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: It's like 2007 Packers.
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: Hashtag IUK watch. The more things change, the more they
• 28:53
  Speaker 5: stay the same. This is the last game Sunday or
• 28:56
  Speaker 5: the last games before the trade deadline.
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: Tuesday afternoon.
• 29:00
  Speaker 5: And I think based on the little research and just
• 29:05
  Speaker 5: talking to people, most people have given up on the
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: idea that the Packers will trade for a Jonathan Taylor
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: or a Brees Hall.
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: Or Yeah, I think those have subsided. Tony Pollard. It's not...
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: I don't think the running back one's happening. I would
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: be interested, Drew, at a couple other spots.
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: That's it. I say defensive tackle and maybe even tight end.
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: I had not thought about tight end. Jono Smith, eh.
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: But if you could get a Dallas Goddard or somebody
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: or a... Juwan, what's the Juwan John? The kid from
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: New Orleans.
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: Juwan Johnson from New Orleans. Yeah.
• 29:39
  Speaker 6: And Goddard expiring contract. So you would think seemingly rather available.
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: They're both like day three picks probably. And they're both
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: really good players, both really good red zone.
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: As an offset to have, because that's if you're not
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: going to be able to run the ball.
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: Haven't had more options to throw it around.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: And they run enough two and three tight end sets.
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: They've put Redmond out on the field enough to know
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: that they want to have more of it.
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: I like that thought, Drew.
• 30:05
  Speaker 5: So I think that's way more likely to me than a,
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: than a running back. And then I think defensive tackle
• 30:10
  Speaker 5: is the spot that they would give up some capital
• 30:12
  Speaker 5: for because Hargraves out and Brinson's on IL and you,
• 30:15
  Speaker 5: you just, Can't have enough of those dudes either.
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: No, you can't.
• 30:18
  Speaker 6: And both of the positions, you have somebody coming off
• 30:21
  Speaker 6: injury who has looked better in recent weeks, but still
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: not themselves.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: John Carzella and YouTube Packers don't have the draft capital
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: to make a move before a deadline.
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: Well, they have draft capital. They're getting some compensatory picks, right?
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: That's the thing. First rounder, I mean. No, and like
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: Drew said, you know, those are day three guys.
• 30:37
  Speaker 6: I think if you're acquiring a tight end or like
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: a Grover Stewart from Indianapolis on the defensive tackle side,
• 30:43
  Speaker 6: They're getting a fourth.
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: Round pick coming in from Malik Willis in company. And John,
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: I get it. They have eight picks in 2027. They
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: also just made six of them in 26. And it's
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: feeling like one of potentially their better draft classes they've
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: had because it feels like they got two guys right
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: out of the gates. So the more picks you have
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: doesn't always equate to the best stuff. And the lack
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: of a first round pick is true. None of these
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: guys are going for a first round pick. And I
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: don't think.
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: That's as necessary at the moment because you've kind of
• 31:17
  Speaker 6: now identified, Drew, over the last couple of years, you've
• 31:20
  Speaker 6: identified your core. You just paid most of the core
• 31:23
  Speaker 6: on offense with the pass catchers and you drafted Golden
• 31:27
  Speaker 6: in the first round. So he's not going anywhere. And defensively,
• 31:31
  Speaker 6: you're going to. lock up at least Evan Williams at
• 31:35
  Speaker 6: the end of the year. You know, Adrian Cooper is
• 31:37
  Speaker 6: going to be a part of it. So you kind
• 31:38
  Speaker 6: of have your core there. You can, you can muddle
• 31:42
  Speaker 6: through without a couple of those draft picks. I would be,
• 31:44
  Speaker 6: I would be interested. I don't know that they will,
• 31:47
  Speaker 6: but here's the part that's different. And I know he
• 31:49
  Speaker 6: always mentions Ted Thompson, that he's got a little bit
• 31:52
  Speaker 6: of Ted Thompson in him. Does Brian good accounts operates
• 31:55
  Speaker 6: a lot more like Ron Wolf in that category. I
• 31:57
  Speaker 6: think that it'll be much more aggressive in other ways
• 32:00
  Speaker 6: of roster building than just, coveting, hoarding, and holding on
• 32:04
  Speaker 6: to every draft pick imaginable and thinking that's the only
• 32:06
  Speaker 6: way to be able to improve it.
• 32:08
  Speaker 5: They didn't have a lot of picks this past April,
• 32:13
  Speaker 5: but they maximized them.
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: They made impactful ones. They made impactful selections, and maybe
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: that's a blueprint.
• 32:18
  Speaker 6: And maybe that's where defensive tackle drew. They're still banking
• 32:22
  Speaker 6: on McClellan, who the reason why they liked him in
• 32:24
  Speaker 6: the third round was because he got better as the
• 32:26
  Speaker 6: year went on.
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: The running back thing is interesting. The names you brought up,
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: they're all playing well. Pollard's having a really good year.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: Their offensive line is pretty solid there in Tennessee. So
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: I don't know how he.
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: I just watching Josh Jacobs try to run behind this line.
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: It doesn't matter.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: No.
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: And all of Tomlinson could come aside with the Packers
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: and he ain't going to find.
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: A hole spot on.
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: And the way that they're running it at this moment,
• 32:49
  Speaker 6: I don't know that any of those guys are markedly
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: better than what Josh Jacobs is.
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: Should be able to give you. Now, can he?
• 32:56
  Speaker 6: That'll be something that'll get worked out over the next
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: nine weeks, and we'll see if it's rusty or washed
• 33:02
  Speaker 6: will be probably the two differentiators, or he's back to
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: being Josh Jacobs, and he starts trending up and up,
• 33:08
  Speaker 6: and maybe a tweak on the offensive line that potentially
• 33:11
  Speaker 6: happens this week would.
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: Help it out. I think we've all kind of seen
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: the same thing when he's back. Is he in shape?
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: I don't know, but I think we all kind of
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: hope and expect him to get better. Then again, I
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: thought that about the running game every week, like, well,
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: this is the week they get something going. Cause how
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: could it stay this bad? And that's what I keep
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: thinking to myself, but I don't know. Maybe it just will,
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: I guess.
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: Uh, but yeah, yeah.
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: Hope that they eventually start to get a little momentum
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: on the ground, find something they can get going, get
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: a little more creative. Maybe, maybe working some other guys,
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: you know, Lloyd's gotten his look. Obviously Jacob's got a
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: bunch of carries. maybe Pierre Strong, but they've got to
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: find some way to try and get better there.
• 33:50
  Speaker 6: Well, and everyone's favorite, Chris Brooks, coming off of the IR,
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: soon designated a return, so he'll start his practice window.
• 33:56
  Speaker 6: News from the Packers practice in the reports earlier today.
• 34:00
  Speaker 6: You know, Keyshawn Nixon was back at practice. There were
• 34:02
  Speaker 6: a lot of videos going around of him running at practice. However, Drew,
• 34:04
  Speaker 6: he said, they're all AI.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Not real.
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: Not real. That wasn't me. Not real. It's funny. But
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: we got a lot of videos of you running. I
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: didn't do it.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: Nope.
• 34:15
  Speaker 6: I don't know where you guys made those. I don't
• 34:17
  Speaker 6: know how you guys made those, but those are not real.
• 34:19
  Speaker 6: So Keyshawn Nixon, maybe not back at practice today. Javon
• 34:22
  Speaker 6: Bullard out. Personal reasons. And the four that missed the
• 34:26
  Speaker 6: game last week are the same ones, or the four
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: that have missed most of the week. And Sean Ryan,
• 34:31
  Speaker 6: Zayer Franklin, Travis Glover, and Josh Wiley also out.
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: Wiley.
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: More to your point of a tight end, maybe being the.
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: Guy you'd go for. That might be the guy they target.
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: They trade for two tight ends in one year? Mark
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: Redman and another one here at the deadline? That could
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: be interesting. I'm going to scour that market here during
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: the break. It'd be interesting if they made that pull.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: I like both of those two names.
• 34:52
  Speaker 5: Johnnie Smith's going to get any better any time soon, right?
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: No, no. Clearly not getting any younger. Started off, I thought,
• 34:59
  Speaker 4: all right.
• 34:59
  Speaker 5: Meh.
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: There's a reason why he didn't score, I think, on
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: week one. That was the one. There's a reason he
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: didn't score week one. That's it. Absolutely. All right. 877-794-1973.
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: Trenny joins us in 20 minutes to talk Brewers looking back,
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: Packers Patriots looking ahead, our NBC Boston correspondent, and the
• 35:17
  Speaker 5: voice of the Packers, Wayne Larrabee, joins us today at 425.
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: In the meantime, let's just enjoy a Friday, shall we?
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: You're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
• 35:29
  Speaker 5: Drew, Billy, and Armand huddled up on a Friday in
• 35:32
  Speaker 5: this portion of the program brought to you by Game
• 35:33
  Speaker 5: Day Men's Health.
• 35:34
  Speaker 4: Check them out online, gamedaymenshealth.com.
• 35:36
  Speaker 5: If you've not visited one of their clinics yet, a
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: little bit like going to a sport clips, you're going
• 35:39
  Speaker 5: to like it. You're going to like the people, and
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: you can find out about the services they offer to
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: help you get back in the game.
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: Gamedaymenshealth.com. Reach out to us.
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: We're entertaining all Packers trade suggestions with the default program.
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: knowing that they probably won't make a move. Yeah, like
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: that's just a good one to have in the back
• 35:58
  Speaker 5: of your mind. Not happening, but... But if it did...
• 36:01
  Speaker 5: What would be interesting?
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: If you were in charge, what would you do?
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: Because, I don't know, well, would Sunday's... Obviously, an injury
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: might prompt something, but does Sunday's outcome prompt it one way,
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: or does it push it? Oh, we got to make
• 36:16
  Speaker 5: this move, because you got to think the windows now.
• 36:19
  Speaker 5: You're in the mix. You got Parsons coming back. Your
• 36:22
  Speaker 5: defense looks great. Love is playing at a high level.
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: There's no reason to think that if you can punch
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: your ticket to the tournament and get.
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: In, who knows what can happen. You're seemingly right there.
• 36:33
  Speaker 6: And it feels, I don't know, I don't know that
• 36:35
  Speaker 6: there's clearly a great team if there is a great team.
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: That's the thing.
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: Packers right now, if you've watched the first half of
• 36:39
  Speaker 5: the season, they don't feel like a Super Bowl team.
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: But what does a Super Bowl team feel like? What
• 36:43
  Speaker 4: did Seattle feel like last year? Correct. They felt like
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: they were very up and down.
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: Very generic and kind of up and down. Yep, 100%.
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: Not like, hey, let's make plans for February.
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: No.
• 36:54
  Speaker 6: If it's a golf tournament, Drew, they've made the cut now.
• 36:58
  Speaker 6: In this week, this is the start of moving day.
• 37:01
  Speaker 6: Are you going to separate yourselves and get yourself into
• 37:04
  Speaker 6: a conversation where Christmas Day can be for the division?
• 37:07
  Speaker 6: Or is it going to be scrapping with San Francisco, LA, Seattle,
• 37:13
  Speaker 6: one of these teams for the final wildcard spots? It's
• 37:16
  Speaker 6: going to be interesting. It truly feels... Maybe I'm wrong.
• 37:21
  Speaker 6: Maybe Washington has a great run in a, maybe Dallas
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: figures it all out. Feels like it's the NFC West
• 37:28
  Speaker 6: and the NFC North for five spots. So I guess
• 37:32
  Speaker 6: I can clump Arizona in there. I don't believe in them.
• 37:34
  Speaker 6: I'd say seven teams for five spots and a game
• 37:37
  Speaker 6: like today, this weekend is going to be a big one.
• 37:39
  Speaker 6: You mentioned day three pick for a Goddard or Jawan Johnson.
• 37:44
  Speaker 6: Grover Stewart's the other name that's kind of come up
• 37:47
  Speaker 6: from Indianapolis. The other guys that they've at least been
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: somewhat linked to, DeForest Buckner just went last week to
• 37:55
  Speaker 6: San Francisco for a 2027 fourth round pick. That's a
• 37:59
  Speaker 6: three-time Pro Bowler, albeit 31 years old, up there in age,
• 38:03
  Speaker 6: but still a really, really productive player and has good
• 38:06
  Speaker 6: football left in him. And Quentin Nelson goes from Indianapolis
• 38:11
  Speaker 6: to Seattle for a third and 27 and a fifth
• 38:14
  Speaker 6: and 28.
• 38:15
  Speaker 4: That's an eight.
• 38:17
  Speaker 6: Time pro bowler and a dude that's probably ticketed for
• 38:19
  Speaker 6: the hall of fame. So he's on an expiring contract.
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: I get it again.
• 38:23
  Speaker 6: Both of those guys reportedly the Packers were in conversations with,
• 38:27
  Speaker 6: but if those guys are going for those picks, I
• 38:29
  Speaker 6: do believe there are plenty of guys that can give,
• 38:31
  Speaker 6: that can help you. That will be available for a
• 38:34
  Speaker 6: fourth and a fifth.
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: Has the biggest trade of this cycle already been made?
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: Good question.
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: I struggle to think there's a bigger one than in
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: terms of package than Simmons.
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm thinking. But like Derek Henry, what does
• 38:45
  Speaker 4: he bring?
• 38:47
  Speaker 6: Henry feels more like Henry feels more like a day
• 38:50
  Speaker 6: three pick too.
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: That's right.
• 38:52
  Speaker 6: Like, especially after last night, I mean, Drew, I don't know.
• 38:56
  Speaker 6: That's a wash out in the rain. I don't know
• 38:58
  Speaker 6: what you could probably take from that, especially with their, uh,
• 39:01
  Speaker 6: Fiano guy that was starting at quarterback.
• 39:04
  Speaker 4: They had no chance. Um, But he doesn't look good.
• 39:08
  Speaker 6: If anybody looks like there's less tread on the tires,
• 39:11
  Speaker 6: this is the first year you're starting to think that
• 39:13
  Speaker 6: he almost looks old. So I think he's probably a
• 39:16
  Speaker 6: day three pick, maybe two day three picks gets it
• 39:20
  Speaker 6: for Derek Henry. The other one in Jonathan Taylor, probably
• 39:24
  Speaker 6: a second and some. But Simmons, you know, whether you
• 39:29
  Speaker 6: agree with it or not, he was instant impact the
• 39:33
  Speaker 6: other night. I mean, he instantly walked in and wrecked
• 39:36
  Speaker 6: that game. So it's sort of like when they traded
• 39:38
  Speaker 6: for Khalil Mack. I remember that first game against us,
• 39:40
  Speaker 6: obviously now he had, I think, More counting stats.
• 39:43
  Speaker 4: There, like sacks.
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he didn't have a pick six. No, but I
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: thought he had impact right away. Sort of like similar
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: to that game. Definitely helped them. Now, will it sustain?
• 39:52
  Speaker 4: We'll see.
• 39:52
  Speaker 6: But the thought of Chicago in the beginning of the
• 39:55
  Speaker 6: year was, and I think it was kind of right,
• 39:58
  Speaker 6: their defense is going to give up a lot. And
• 40:00
  Speaker 6: are they going to be Cincinnati of the last couple
• 40:04
  Speaker 6: of years where Joe Burrow's got to score 35 to
• 40:08
  Speaker 6: think you have a chance to win. Their defense has
• 40:10
  Speaker 6: been a lot better, and that trade just made them
• 40:13
  Speaker 6: a lot more formidable with that offense. I think that's
• 40:16
  Speaker 6: kind of been the biggest.
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: A lot of people point to Caleb, and Caleb's been good,
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: but he's been in and out of the lineup for
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: a bit, but it's their defense consistently through the 20s.
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: Last year, they depended a lot on the takeaways, right?
• 40:26
  Speaker 4: That was the big story.
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: It was like the Bears get all these takeaways, but
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: they were giving up yards, but they're not doing that
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: this year. They're shutting teams down, and obviously that makes
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: them stronger. one of the storylines to be worked out. Although,
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: if you listen to Bears fans, this is the first
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: time they've ever been 6-2. I mean, they are already
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: throwing the parade in Chicago, it feels like. So, I'm
• 40:47
  Speaker 3: hoping that reverses course.
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: Again, I know, but.
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: Rightfully so, because it's the first time that the quarterback
• 40:53
  Speaker 6: is one of the reasons why they are.
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: That's the thing.
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: I think they feel like, oh, this could be more
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: legitimate now if Caleb can be this guy.
• 40:59
  Speaker 6: I would think some real lasting power there. They got
• 41:01
  Speaker 6: a good coach and a good quarterback. That's a good
• 41:04
  Speaker 6: combination to start with when You haven't had that in,
• 41:07
  Speaker 6: you know, 35.
• 41:07
  Speaker 4: 40 years. Yes, indeed.
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: Or you've had guys, you know, just kind of buttressing
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: the great defense. But if Caleb's a reason, and if
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: he's complete 70 buttress.
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: Is that the right term?
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: Buttressing. Buttressing up against the great defense. You had a
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: Rex Crossman.
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: Drew, you ever put that in any stories?
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: Buttress never made it in on any, you know, this
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: really buttressing bullpen problem. The bullpen buttressing up against a
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: great starting group. I mean, if their quarterback throws.
• 41:38
  Speaker 5: Projecting structural support built against a wall or building to
• 41:41
  Speaker 5: absorb lateral forces and prevent the wall from bowing, leaning,
• 41:45
  Speaker 5: or collapsing.
• 41:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. So there you go. How the hell did
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: you pull that out? Well, anyway.
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: Where do you find a word like buttressing? I don't
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: know where it came from.
• 41:56
  Speaker 5: To strengthen support or prop up a non-physical concept, such
• 42:00
  Speaker 5: as buttressing an argument with data or buttressing a financial portfolio.
• 42:04
  Speaker 4: I think that's what I was going for more. Like
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: that second definition.
• 42:08
  Speaker 6: No, I think he used it well. I'm just, again, wondering,
• 42:12
  Speaker 6: is this a word of the day calendar, or is
• 42:14
  Speaker 6: this just you reading through the stories that you're finding?
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: I could never answer where it came in the depths
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: of my mind. I have no idea why that came out.
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: But if their quarterback scores 70% all year, then yes.
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: If Bears fans are ready.
• 42:26
  Speaker 5: To throw a parade, though, here's the thing. They're home
• 42:29
  Speaker 5: against the Buccaneers Sunday night.
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: They should win. They go to New Orleans. They should
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: win that. Should win that one, too. Yeah, you're right.
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: They have their bye after that. But after Buccaneers, they
• 42:40
  Speaker 4: have a bye. Then they go to New Orleans.
• 42:41
  Speaker 5: And then they have the short week game Thanksgiving at
• 42:44
  Speaker 5: Ford Field. If the Lions win that game and the
• 42:47
  Speaker 5: Bears go to 0-3 in the division, they ain't winning
• 42:50
  Speaker 5: the division then, I don't think.
• 42:51
  Speaker 4: Much different.
• 42:52
  Speaker 5: Much different story. The calculus gets much different. So that
• 42:54
  Speaker 5: becomes the circle it game for them.
• 42:56
  Speaker 4: Because then you're on the road to the playoffs.
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: Because that's the thing that Ben Johnson still has to
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: prove is division.
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: Division wins.
• 43:03
  Speaker 5: Because then they have in a four-game span, they have
• 43:07
  Speaker 5: the Lions, the Jags at home. I don't know how
• 43:10
  Speaker 5: the Jags will play in December at Soldier Field.
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: We'll see. Yeah, that'll be a question.
• 43:13
  Speaker 5: Then the Dolphins in Miami and the Bills in Buffalo. Ooh,
• 43:19
  Speaker 5: their matchup is in Buffalo.
• 43:21
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 43:21
  Speaker 5: So if the Lions win that, then the Bears might
• 43:24
  Speaker 5: be on a little thing where they lose like three
• 43:26
  Speaker 5: out of four.
• 43:26
  Speaker 4: I like the sound of that. Let's manifest. Let's manifest.
• 43:29
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying. Come on now.
• 43:30
  Speaker 5: You can look around the corner. You see monsters around
• 43:33
  Speaker 5: every corner in the NFL.
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 43:34
  Speaker 5: When you look at the schedule and go, oh, yeah,
• 43:36
  Speaker 5: but it's a week-to-week league, as we always say. But
• 43:40
  Speaker 5: I think they'll prevail against Tampa and New Orleans, although
• 43:43
  Speaker 5: you never know.
• 43:44
  Speaker 4: You don't. You're right.
• 43:45
  Speaker 5: Buccaneers on a Sunday night might rise up and shock
• 43:47
  Speaker 5: the world.
• 43:49
  Speaker 6: And Chicago will be, okay, so that's a Saturday night,
• 43:52
  Speaker 6: December 19th.
• 43:53
  Speaker 4: Bears-Bills. Yeah. On CBS. Ooh, that is. And then their
• 43:58
  Speaker 4: next game after that is the Packers on Christmas Day.
• 44:00
  Speaker 6: I was just going to say, because I thought, wow,
• 44:02
  Speaker 6: Packers are going to get them on a little bit
• 44:03
  Speaker 6: of a short week.
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: Packers will be the one on a shorter week.
• 44:05
  Speaker 5: The Bears are for real. That's the stretch when they'll
• 44:07
  Speaker 5: show that they're for real.
• 44:09
  Speaker 4: Great time for some dissension. Lions-Jags. Let's get that. Dolphins-Bills-Packers.
• 44:13
  Speaker 6: And, I mean, the Packers don't get a short week,
• 44:15
  Speaker 6: but they get a bye week the week before because
• 44:17
  Speaker 6: they host Miami. Could be a lot worse. That's also
• 44:21
  Speaker 6: in Toyotathon. I would also think about that. It's around
• 44:27
  Speaker 6: the corner here. Toyotathon hasn't even started yet. We need
• 44:31
  Speaker 6: Jan to start dusting those sails off and get those
• 44:34
  Speaker 6: big bows hanging up on those cars.
• 44:36
  Speaker 4: He's had a great year. Anybody actually buying one like that?
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: Great question.
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: I've wondered, who's out there actually buying cars with a
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: bow on it? That's a great question.
• 44:45
  Speaker 4: I wonder that. If you have one, send it in
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: to us. Because I want to know.
• 44:49
  Speaker 6: I do want to see that picture. I do want
• 44:50
  Speaker 6: to see that picture. Not any other pictures. Put a
• 44:54
  Speaker 6: bow on your Cybertruck.
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: That's gone. Before they stop production. Before they stop them.
• 45:00
  Speaker 4: You should have bought a Kia. Yeah, there you go.
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
• 45:03
  Speaker 6: Cardinals are going out.
• 45:04
  Speaker 4: Baby on board.
• 45:05
  Speaker 5: All right, when we come back, we're going to go
• 45:08
  Speaker 5: to the Boston Bureau. Packers, Patriots. Our pal Trini Casey
• 45:12
  Speaker 5: from NBC Sports Boston is going to join the party next.
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: You're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
