• 0:42
  Speaker 2: It is time.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: Who do you think you are?
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: I am! With Drew Olsen.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: When he spoke, he commanded your attention and he commanded
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: your respect.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: Bill Schmidt.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: That son of a gun is thick.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: And Armin Sarian.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Daddy Sarian.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Welcome to the huddle.
• 1:00
  Speaker 6: Welcome to the huddle as we get you ready for
• 1:02
  Speaker 6: a weekend in the good land.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: One week removed from the Brewers' celebration of all celebrations. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
• 1:10
  Speaker 6: Packers playing on Sunday afternoon, three 25 kick in Foxborough
• 1:14
  Speaker 6: against the Patriots. We'll be talking to Wayne Larrabee about
• 1:17
  Speaker 6: that in about 20 minutes. We have a Badgers first
• 1:21
  Speaker 6: up though, against Rutgers in a salute to service game.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Always a good moment.
• 1:25
  Speaker 6: And in addition to watching the new true freshman quarterback,
• 1:29
  Speaker 6: which I've been advocating for that for a while. If
• 1:31
  Speaker 6: you're the Badgers, get a freshman in there and let
• 1:33
  Speaker 6: him play for a while until he's ready to jump
• 1:35
  Speaker 6: to the NFL.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: Let him rip a little bit. See, we'll see what
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: you got.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: The last one drew that they gave a real extended
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: runway to was a young man that came in after
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: Tanner Mordecai Braden lock. Now didn't work out, but in
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: his first two game, his first game down in Illinois
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: had a huge game through for 240 yards or so.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: And you're like, sweet. That'll work.
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: Let them roll a little bit. So get them, get
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: them a soft landing spot. Again, worst place to make
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: your first start probably would have been Kinnick stadium. Maybe
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: your best place to start your first game.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: At home against Rutgers. At home, yeah. That might be
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: the perfect way to be able to launch in, hopefully.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Forecast good for tomorrow? Decent?
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: I think it's going to be nice. A little chilly, right?
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: November forecast. You got to have a little bit of
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: a chill in the air. But for the folks that
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: are going to be out at Camp Randall, I think
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: the biggest thing, frankly, always is, is going to stay dry.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: That's the heat yeah you.
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: Know it should be cold rain mid mid to high
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: 40s should be some sun depends i won't be there
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: long with a 315 kick uh but no rain is
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: always the best thing so it's november football baby it's
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: gonna feel like it it's gonna be a good time
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: yeah maybe and you'll see a lot of these on
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: uh sidelines and on fields tonight for for high school
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: football good time for the uh the head gear over,
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: you know, that, that full on top. They used to
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: like be the old ski mask that kids are now
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: where that dudes wear it when it's 90 degrees because
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: they think it looks cool.
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: I don't think it looks all that cool. A lot
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: of them in the stands coming up this week.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Cause you're going to need that.
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Keep that all that heat stays up on that noggin.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: And then you're all good.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Form follows function, except when you are.
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: If you're playing it's it's form follows, whatever's cool looking.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: I remember asking one of our kids, say, why are
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: you wearing that? It's 90 degrees.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: Coach.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Swag don't come cheap.
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: I can't argue with that.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: I can't argue with that, I guess. I can't argue
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: with that logic. It looks good. Dripping with swag. There's
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: a lot of it. There's going to be a lot
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: of swag being showcased coming up this week. Drew, you
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: mentioned one week since the celebration. One week, probably what?
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: Almost to the hour. A couple hours earlier when Sal
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: Freelick made his proclamation.
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: That he was going to drink 100,000 beers. People are
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: doing the math on it, how many he'd have to
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: drink in a year or 10 years.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: He said he had.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: 20 people the next day at breakfast offering him beer.
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: He's not going to be able to. But how long
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: do you think it would take the city of Milwaukee?
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: How long did it take the city of Milwaukee to
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: drink 100,000 beers? Was there 100,000 beers drank that day?
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: Because I'm seeing all these numbers from Ferg's and all
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: these exciting.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: It.
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: Felt like more Miller Lights than the 84,000 that we
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: were being told about.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: Well, I don't think drinking 100,000 beers is hard for
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: a crowd like at the.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Parade, Fred.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: But I'm saying, what is that?
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: At the Burr's Rally at the Summerfest Grounds, they estimated
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: 250,000 beers sold.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: So in an hour, we could have cleaned that out.
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: So we just need to crowdsource it. We can help
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: Sal out with that. He's not going to be able to.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: But I do think we just have one day where
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: we all drink a beer. We could have all toasted
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: it right there. Everyone slammed 100,000 down at one moment.
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: That would be a cool community moment. And just to
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: keep celebrating something together. We can't do a whole parade again, obviously.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: But if everyone said... You know, we're all.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Going to drink the hundred thousand beers.
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: At 9 a.m. Everyone crack at the same time.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Or maybe not 9 a.m. Yeah, I would have thought
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: maybe three in the afternoon. Well, no, if we want
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: to get started early and get done early. OK, fine.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Maybe not nine in the morning, but OK, 5 p.m.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: Everyone's out of work. How's that? 5 p.m. That was
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: a lot.
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: Five o'clock somewhere is the statement for a reason. We
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: can all crack it at the same time and crack.
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: We'll all drink at the same time, and then we'll
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: be good.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Pick a day. January 26th, Euchre's birthday. We'll do the toast.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: January 26th is toast day. 5 p.m. on Euchre's birthday,
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: January 26th. Everyone get a beer at 5 p.m. and
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: crack it open.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Tremendous. That deserves. Unless you're driving. Don't do it in
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: the car. Unless you're driving.
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: But that'd be a day to rally around. That is
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: a perfect one to be able to celebrate. Or the
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: anniversary of the Brewers winning the World Series.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: How about both? They both play. They both play. They
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: both play. I mean, it's, there's never a bad reason
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: to celebrate. Let's hear from you out there. If you're
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: going to crack one that day, but just let us know.
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: We could start our own and make it a tradition.
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: Could also do it on, uh, April 14th, four, one, four, uh,
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: That's always a good day.
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: That's always a Milwaukee day. I like your thought, though,
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: on Euchre's birthday.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Honor Euchre. I like the honoring Euchre.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: It would be like the three-month celebration a couple of
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: days later on the 28th. That would be the celebration.
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: But now they can't do the on-deck event, right? If
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: they're in a lockout, they can't have players there. They
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: can't celebrate that way. So that's a difficult one to
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: be able to have. So that's why Euchre's birthday on
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: a Tuesday seems like a great day to be able
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: to cheers and crack one open.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Brewers on deck has been shelved anyway. Yeah. Definitely not.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Nobody's having anything this year.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: Now, is there a restriction on what can be sold
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: from the team with their players and stuff like that.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: But they have to take all the stuff off the website, correct?
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure what that.
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: They sent out that whole manifesto a week and a
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: half before the playoffs.
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: They won't slow down commerce. Because Players Association, they get
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: a rake from that, so no one wants to stop.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: That's a good point. Listen, we're going to shelve our business.
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: But we're not going to completely kill it. We're going
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: to just shut it down for a while, but we're
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: going to still let people buy a couple of different things.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: I like that deal.
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: The other thing that's interesting is those spring training could
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: be shortened this year or delayed. The minor leagues are
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: still fired up. If you're not on the 40-man roster,
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: you're still going about it as normal. It's the big league.
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: Oh, wow.
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: Camps will open. And they'll get probably, you know, Murph
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: will be down there coaching those guys. So your whole
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: AA and AAA will get a good run. A lot
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: of those guys, well, the guys who aren't on the
• 7:37
  Speaker 6: 40-man aren't subject to it.
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: Well, a lot of good young players for the Brewers
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: that are going to get some good hands-on work. That
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: would be a Jesus Made, a Blake Burke, Andrew Fisher,
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: a lot of young cats that you hope at some
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: point you're going to be playing with.
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: Well, that was what was so unique about this team
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: this year. You're talking about the best team in baseball
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: basically all year, and we were talking about the minor leaguers,
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: the prospects as much, especially the ones that came up,
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: as much as the actual team in the field. It
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: was the most unique thing most of the year, and
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: it was a great thing because those guys helped them
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: win the World Series, a couple of them, and more
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: hopefully are coming to help this thing become a dynasty,
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: so Yeah, that would be pretty good. I know fans
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: would be interested. Fans will take any morsel of anything
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: Brewers right now. You asked if they were popping up
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: in the wild, the victory tour. There was, by the way,
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: an Instagram post by Trevor McGill, and I think I
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: saw it on Reddit, that he popped up at a
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: deli in Waukesha. Looks like the Rochester deli. He went
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: in there to have a sandwich. So there you go.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, there's some hot rod place to in Pewaukee
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: sightings in the wild. There you go. Yeah, he's been around.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: I never been to the Rochester.
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: Deli, but I mean, I will go and get a
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: sandwich there.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: Apparently they're good. Ruben, apparently. I don't know. Yeah, it's
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: a good place to hang out. He popped up.
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: So anytime anyone spots a brewer in the wild in
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: the next, you know, it's going to keep happening and
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: it's going to keep being a big deal, which is exciting.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: There'll be a buzz. There'll be a buzz. You can
• 9:01
  Speaker 6: reach us, 877-794-1973. Time for our current electric superhero of
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: the day. Brought to us by CallCurrent.com, the experts, the
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: superheroes on the side of the van for the current
• 9:10
  Speaker 6: electric folks, and superheroes inside, the technicians who will come
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: make your home safe, do those electricity projects for you
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: so you don't have to do it and worry about
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: whether something's grounded or not.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're correct. Zapped off a ladder. Very important for
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: a guy like me. There's a lot of things I'll
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: try to do. That one, not going to happen.
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: I'm going to take down that ceiling fan and put
• 9:32
  Speaker 6: up a fixture. No, I'm going to call Current and
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: let them take down that ceiling fan and put up
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: a fixture.
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: Yes, I'll buy the fixture. They'll be able to fix it.
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: It'll feel a lot better at callcurrent.com.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: Spot on. Like for our current electric superhero.
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: So I was going to give you guys the chance
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: to grade which one of these guys deserves to be
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: the superhero of the day.
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: One.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: Austin Simmons, quarterback at Mizzou. He resigned today, Drew.
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: Isn't that funny to say?
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: He resigned? No, resigned. Re-signed. Right. For the 2027 season.
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: Just wanted to let everybody know one of the breakout
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: stars of college football has re-signed with the Tigers. However,
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: does not guarantee that he'll return with his final year
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: of college eligibility. Right now, he's the fifth-rated quarterback.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: We're going into November... He turns 21 on Sunday.
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: The former Ole Miss transfer has been a stud, throwing
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: 16 touchdowns, two picks. The lefty is fourth in the
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: SEC in passing. Got his Tigers to a 6-2 record,
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: 18th in the college football playoff. But by resigning early,
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: Simmons gives Missouri a chance to build the momentum from
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: this season, heading into 2027 as a majority of Missouri's
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: top skill players have additional eligibility. This is like a
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: signing day that we're doing in the middle of college
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: football season.
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: So weird.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: I mean, it really is. Resigns. We have super cool
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: graphics for quarterbacks that are on the team. Let you
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: all know. Don't worry, guys. I'm not going to leave
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: in a month and a half.
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: But the one thing we still is as weird as
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: this is, the one thing we still don't know is
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: how much they're making.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Right, Billy? We still don't know. And we got to
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: know what they're making. You're right.
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: We still don't know how he's making. We don't know
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: what they're making. And we got to know at some point.
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: You think we would.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: The other nominees that were up.
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: There here today, and I don't know that there's a
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: lot of great ones in the case, but it is
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: a week away, a week since. I don't know that
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: it ever is going to go bad saying the Milwaukee
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: Brewers are superheroes of the day for one week ago
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: being able to celebrate and throw the best party the
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: city may have ever seen in the World Series Championship Parade.
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: I don't know anybody's going to argue with that naming
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: of a superhero of the day. You know I like
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: giving mine. I'd always love to give one to Trevor Lawrence.
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: But 16-26 and a touchdown last night, Drew. Wasn't great.
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: It was out of like the suspense was gone before halftime.
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: Was that the least entertaining football game we will watch
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: all year?
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: I was like, Laura, you can change this if you want.
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: Because the tough thing is you can change it. She's like,
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: don't you need to? I'm like, I've seen all there
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: is to see. It's the end of the third quarter
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: of this game. There's nothing left to.
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: See in this.
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: Something is you look at the numbers and the rating
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: that that'll pull. It'll be beat probably most of the
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: NBA finals games from this past year.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: That is wild. That's the thing.
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: It's a cat from Yukon starting a quarterback for the
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: home team that the home fans, I think, were booing
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: their offense when the game started.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: Didn't stop booing them throughout.
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: And I think the only boo that got louder was
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: Al Michaels in the third and fourth quarter booing the game.
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: He was very much done with the game once Al
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: Michaels decided to tell you the 10-minute story of how.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: The Jaguars got their name. That's all we had last night,
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: I guess. Guys, I got time.
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: I got a bedtime story for you. That's how he
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: front-sold it. I have a bedtime story. He knocked quite
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: a few out last night in that 33-10 decision.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: There was an anti-hero last night. New Mexico State women's game.
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: She put a blip in her own basket in the
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: final 20 seconds, trilling by one point.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: That's not good.
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: I have not looked to see if they ended up
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: losing the game, but that's an anti-hero right there.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: Hold on.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: What? Yes.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: Let me see here. I'm trying to get the name here.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: I just see the video.
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: She scored against her team to give the opponent the lead.
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: So I guess you're a hero no matter who you are.
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: Depending on who you are, what side of it it
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: is on. Trying to get the rest of the story here.
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: But yes, I mean, that's pretty bad. Well, they survived.
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: They won on a last second game winner. I'm watching
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: right here. That's an impressive finish there for New Mexico State.
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: It absolved her, I guess.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: It was the same player. That would be pretty interesting. Man,
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: isn't that a wild one? Yes, it was Emma Cristiano.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Emma Cristiano and Lady Demons Jr. Karma win. Well, Karma.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: I'm writing names. So there's an anti-hero for you.
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: There you go. Well, call Current.com for the real superheroes.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the real superheroes. And they won't score in their
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: own basket. They are going to make your home feel
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: like a win and a score.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: Indeed. Call Current.com.
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: Boss Dobler on YouTube. Hell yes, minor league baseball for
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: the win. I'm all set for Nashville at Gwinnett. It's
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: going to be a great season for the Sounds next year.
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: He's a big, big minor league guy for the Brewers.
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: Big Sounds guy. He loves watching those guys down there.
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: I think he lives close to Georgia, I want to say, right? So,
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: all right, Dobbler.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: I like that. Good to see.
• 14:24
  Speaker 6: It was funny because someone told me, oh, it was yesterday.
• 14:29
  Speaker 6: Here at the Megaplex, one of our coworkers from over
• 14:32
  Speaker 6: in Thailand, the sales department, was saying that her feed
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: is all full of Brewers' wives and girlfriends.
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: Really?
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: Interesting.
• 14:41
  Speaker 6: I've been consuming all the parade content, and they've been
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: putting out a lot of it, so I've been thrown
• 14:44
  Speaker 6: the same thing.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: Okay. I'm not a Wags guy, but it's all front
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: and center.
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: And they probably had better perspectives and better viewpoints than
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: any of us did.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. There's some good shots from up on
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: those buses, I got to assume.
• 14:59
  Speaker 6: I did see while Rock and some others posted the
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: stuff where they mustered at the Baird Center and where
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: they got the parade was staged inside the Baird Center.
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: I got to say, I don't know that we talked
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: enough about how cool it was that Sophia was in
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: Euchre's convertible.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: Pretty cool.
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: Drew is somebody that had been there for so many
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: different games. And I know that was his latest that
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: he had. He had a number of different good rides
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: that rode in there. But seeing that thing parked inside
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: the dock and then seeing that ride around on the
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: victory parade.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: That had to have been a cool moment. That was
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: pretty cool. No question.
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: Because he had a very unique relationship, it felt like,
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: as well with Sofia.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: Yuki had a good relationship with seemingly everybody.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: But Sofia, that was a very, very cool and a
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: special one to be able to see.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: I loved that.
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: Yep, for sure. And yeah, Yuki had that way about him.
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: But walking by... And seeing that vet there, you know, oh,
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: Uke's here.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: There we go.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: It's going to be a special day. It's going to
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: be a fun day to be able to be in here.
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: Especially towards the end when he wasn't doing every game.
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: You see the car, you're like, all right. All is
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: right with the universe. Everything's good here today. No spot on.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, fantastic.
• 16:06
  Speaker 6: And he'd get there early and do his swimming workout
• 16:08
  Speaker 6: and stuff. And he's always going to have a locker
• 16:10
  Speaker 6: in that clubhouse.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: It's amazing. Those swimming workouts are stuff of legend. Legendary.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: Legendary stuff. Yeah, no question. All right, keep them coming.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: 877-794-1973.
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: To the NicoletLaw.com talk and text line. There's a big
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: NBA game tonight, I guess, if you're into big NBA
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: games in November.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: NBA Cup stuff? Okay, come on, Drew. Sixers trying to
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: go to 9-1 playing the Cavs. Great start for the Sixers, yeah.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: In Cleveland, okay. Off to an incredible start there. Yeah,
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, people expected it, but they're doing it.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: They are.
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: It hasn't been a, oh, we've got to figure this
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: out and get this all-star team ironed out and stuff.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: Well, it's working out okay.
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and Tyrese Maxey's just been good. He's been really,
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: really good leading the charge. Anytime LeBron goes back to Cleveland,
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: I'll sign up to watch. I'm always in for that deal.
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: ESPN's all over that game. And then, obviously, we have
• 16:57
  Speaker 6: a lot of high school playoff games here, Billy. A
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: lot of good ones coming up here tonight. Tonight is
• 17:01
  Speaker 6: like the night. Hopes will be dashed. And dreams will
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: be fulfilled. And it's going to be both agony of
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: victory and the thrill of victory.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: The agony of defeat will be on display tonight.
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: And this is also when everybody's been able to prepare
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: without the backdrop of the Brewers. Could you imagine the
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: consternation as a high school football coach last week when
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: that little Friday parade was going on and all the
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: kids were off school?
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: Oh, man.
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: I mean, you want to know everybody's dialed in, let
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: alone off their feet, not hanging out in swarms of people.
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: I made a couple of jokes and texted a couple
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: of my friends there. How many of your guys you
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: think are out at the parade? Because I don't even
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: want to guess the percentage, but probably 70 plus.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: It's time for you guys to not be selfish and
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: be selfless. Remember what's most important. What's most important here?
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: This team. Yeah, this team. Be ready to go for
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: this team. I'm sorry, coach. I think me being at
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: this parade is actually a bigger deal in my life
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: right now. I don't think I'm going to the NFL.
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: So it is really with that at a night football
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: coach thing.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: So this is the most important thing right now in
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: your life. Sit at home and prepare. Hudson at West
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: De Pere. That might attract some Packers players.
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: Dude, that's going to be a good one. West De
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: Pere is a wagon and has been for a while.
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: Case at Muskego should be fun.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: They've played in the playoffs like three of the last
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: four years. I think Arrowhead, Sussex, Hamilton. Writes itself. The
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: game in the area. And then Wanakee at Bayport. It's
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: a travel day for Wanakee.
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: I was going to say, Drew, that's got to be
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: in the conversation. Hudson-Westapur, ridiculous track. Bayport-Wanakee, ridiculous track. And
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: if Arrowhead gets through against Hamilton, which is no small task,
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: Hamilton is legit. A couple of guys going to the
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: Badgers on that offensive line. You could have a rematch
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: of the state title game from last year with Bayport
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: and Arrowhead.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: Sorry, Billy. Wanakini Bayport, two hours, 18 minutes. It's 218
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: or 145-mile jaunt. Yeah, not even close to the West
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: of Pierre Hudson one. What about do Brookfield to New Richmond?
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: I'll have to check that one out, yes.
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: My goodness.
• 19:01
  Speaker 6: Central's playing at New Richmond. They've been the road warriors
• 19:04
  Speaker 6: this year. Grafton at Monona Grove, Pulaski at Notre Dame,
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: and West Bend West at Union Grove.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: Ooh, that's a good one.
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: West Bend West, a newcomer. In their last year of
• 19:14
  Speaker 6: existence before they become West Bend. Before it just becomes
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: all West Bend?
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: Also, shout out as you start seeing more and more
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: folks being able to celebrate. You mentioned it, the Brookfield
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: Central Lancers going up to Noom Richmond. Joel Ellis, former Badger,
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: he was named the Packers High School Coach of the Week.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: So awesome. All right, Armin, how far is Brookfield to
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: New Richmond?
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: That's the longest. Four hours, 26 minutes, and 300 miles.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Wow. For some reason, I didn't think it was that long,
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: but it is, obviously. That's a two-night hotel stay.
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: Because that's, I mean, that's is the furthest corner that
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: you're going to get to.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: That's end-to-end. 300 miles. Eisenhower Pewaukee, Catholic Memorial at Whitefish Bay.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: Those aren't long jaunts. Plymouth at Port Washington, not a
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: long jaunt. Eisenhower Pewaukee used to be a conference game.
• 20:03
  Speaker 6: Fox Valley Lutheran at La Crosse Logan, that's across the state.
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: Well, the bus driver has to stop for gas.
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: I mean, that is.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: That's, yeah.
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: I mean, think about that. That's never happened, right? Catholic Memorial,
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: Whitefish Bay, that's going to be a good game. Catholic
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: Memorial just got by New Berlin West a week ago.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: I'm excited. I got to try to get out to
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: a game here tonight. I'll bundle up, though. I'll bundle up.
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you that. I'm going to bundle up. It is.
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: That 35 degree feels a lot different coming out of summer.
• 20:29

  Speaker 6: the Packers and our friend Wayne Larravee. He's presented on
• 21:55

• 21:59
  Speaker 6: light by Pottawatomie Sportsbook, the official sportsbook partner of the
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: Green Bay Packers and Wisconsin Concrete Coatings.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Good afternoon, Wayne.
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: Good afternoon, guys. How you doing?
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: We are phenomenal. How are you doing? Is this a
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: homecoming game for you? Is this going east, going to Massachusetts,
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: your home state?
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: No.
• 22:17
  Speaker 7: You know, I've been away so long, it's not really...
• 22:20
  Speaker 7: Nobody remembers I was even there.
• 22:23
  Speaker 6: You're not going to drive by the old neighborhood or
• 22:24
  Speaker 6: your old high school or something?
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: Come on.
• 22:27
  Speaker 7: No, I grew up in the western part of the state.
• 22:29
  Speaker 7: That's about two hours from Boston.
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: So, no. There won't be any homecoming like that.
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: I just thought Emerson would have some kind of... celebration
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: uh for the distinguished alumni coming back this is an
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: interesting game wayne uh where you got two teams that
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: are in the midst of years and months where they
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: kind of saved their seasons but uh the patriots start
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: was very frustrating and drake may couldn't stop throwing interceptions
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: we already know what happened in the first three weeks
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: for the packers but both had big time octobers and
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: feels like a collision course that they're on here for
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: the 325.
• 23:05
  Speaker 7: Kick Yeah, Billy, I mean, they seem to be very
• 23:09
  Speaker 7: similar teams, except that New England offensively is better balanced.
• 23:14
  Speaker 7: And Drake May is playing terrific football since the fourth
• 23:17
  Speaker 7: week of the season, as is Jordan Love. And these
• 23:20
  Speaker 7: are two of the best downfield passers in the game today.
• 23:24
  Speaker 7: And I'll submit to you, Drake May, that's impressive because
• 23:27
  Speaker 7: he doesn't have a whole lot to throw to downfield.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: Not guys you've heard about anyway. You know, A.J.
• 23:32
  Speaker 7: Brown's not going to play this week. Mack Hollins may
• 23:36
  Speaker 7: be back. I wouldn't call him a tremendously well-known deep threat.
• 23:43
  Speaker 7: But nonetheless, he's a very good receiver. And if he
• 23:45
  Speaker 7: gets back off IR this week, that'll help. But, you know,
• 23:49
  Speaker 7: Drake Mays done a heck of a job with the
• 23:51
  Speaker 7: cast he has around him.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: And they've kind of cobbled a good offense together.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: They've also turned it over a fair amount, Wayne.
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: And that's something the Packers have been good at this
• 24:01
  Speaker 6: year is taking the ball away after not doing it
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: very often last year.
• 24:05
  Speaker 7: Yeah, and 15 giveaways for the Patriots this year. But
• 24:08
  Speaker 7: as Billy pointed out, a lot of them came in
• 24:10
  Speaker 7: the first three weeks of the season. They've been very
• 24:13
  Speaker 7: solid in the last four games. You know, they're very
• 24:15
  Speaker 7: similar to the Packers. Both teams start one and two.
• 24:18
  Speaker 7: Both teams have won four of their last five.
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: And you're spot on when we say it went a
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: number of different times, that turnovers. A lot of it
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: is luck. You can find yourself into fortunate situations where
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: they've come. The Packers have also just forced the hand
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: a lot. And we were talking about it a little earlier.
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: We're seeing so many teams. And last week, being able
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: to watch the whole league, you noticed that it's not
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: just Jonathan Gannon and the Packers. These six guys walked
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: up on the line of scrimmage. Sometimes seven guys mugged
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: up on the line of scrimmage. It's forcing quarterbacks to
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: make really quick, instinctual decisions that And I wonder if
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: the Packers are able to force May into a couple
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: of mistakes here because he's a really, really good scrambler.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: You heat him up. That might be a way to
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: counteract his ability to get him out of the pocket.
• 25:02
  Speaker 7: Chicago tried to do that, Billy, and really didn't have
• 25:05
  Speaker 7: a whole lot of success doing it a couple of
• 25:07
  Speaker 7: weeks ago. But the fact is, the thing that's impressive
• 25:11
  Speaker 7: about Drake May, guys, is how he's able to buy
• 25:14
  Speaker 7: time with his legs. And he's very accurate on the
• 25:17
  Speaker 7: move outside the pocket. So, yeah, you can heat him up.
• 25:20
  Speaker 7: But he's also a big guy. I mean, he's what, 6'5, 225?
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: I've seen him shake off a lot of would-be sacks
• 25:27
  Speaker 7: and turn those plays into winning plays downfield in the
• 25:31
  Speaker 7: passing game. This is going to be a tough guy
• 25:33
  Speaker 7: to corral, but I think the number one thing the
• 25:35
  Speaker 7: Packers have to do, make sure you contain him.
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: The next-gen stat, Wayne, is that he's apparently scrambled to
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: run 26 times. Pick up 13 first downs and a touchdown.
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: I mean, those are really effective runs. And, I mean,
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: you know, those are just backbreakers for a defense, especially
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: when you feel like you're about to be getting off
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: the field.
• 25:54
  Speaker 7: Yeah, no doubt about it. And he leads the league
• 25:56
  Speaker 7: in scramble yardage. So, you know, this is a guy
• 26:00
  Speaker 7: who presents a lot of problems. Very impressed with him, Billy.
• 26:03
  Speaker 7: I mean, he's got the big arm. I think he's
• 26:05
  Speaker 7: very accurate. He's playing at an extremely high level, as
• 26:09
  Speaker 7: he was last year now.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: They've come through a bit of a gauntlet in their schedule.
• 26:14
  Speaker 7: This is going to be an interesting ballgame in Foxborough,
• 26:17
  Speaker 7: where the Packers, by the way, haven't won since 2002.
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: The Patriots came back to beat the fight in Jeff
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: Halfleys at Hard Rock Stadium. What did you glean from
• 26:27
  Speaker 6: the tape there, Wayne? What jumped out at you the
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: most from that comeback win that they had?
• 26:32
  Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, the Patriots, once Hunter Henry, their starting
• 26:35
  Speaker 7: tight end, went down with a foot injury in the
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: first half. They seem to have very little, especially in
• 26:40
  Speaker 7: the passing game. But this is where May was really outstanding,
• 26:44
  Speaker 7: I thought, in the second half. It didn't start well
• 26:46
  Speaker 7: in the early third quarter. But by midway through the
• 26:48
  Speaker 7: third quarter, he began to heat up. They began to
• 26:51
  Speaker 7: get a handle on the pass rush. And they started
• 26:53
  Speaker 7: making plays downfield with guys like DeMario, Pop, Douglas, Kyle Williams,
• 27:02
  Speaker 7: a guy by the name of Efton Chisholm. I mean,
• 27:07
  Speaker 7: who are these guys? Have you seen them anywhere but
• 27:09
  Speaker 7: on the side of a milk carton?
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: No.
• 27:11
  Speaker 7: I mean, you're wondering about that, but they make plays,
• 27:13
  Speaker 7: and they're very good players, and he makes them good,
• 27:16
  Speaker 7: and that's the sign of a really good quarterback. I mean,
• 27:19
  Speaker 7: Brett Favre made millions of dollars for a lot of
• 27:22
  Speaker 7: mediocre wide receivers over the course of his career.
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and Drake May is a really tantalizing talent, right? Wayne,
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: you mentioned he's so big and physical. He comes from
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: a incredibly athletic family. His brother, Luke may hit one
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: of the biggest shots in North Carolina basketball history, but
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: four brothers, he's the youngest one and competitive as hell.
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: That kind of like intangible thing. You don't always hear
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: as much anymore about, but you can see it in
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: the kind of playground style. He almost thrives in that
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: ball to Williams this past weekend. That's a casual step
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: up in the pocket, 45 yard bomb with the flick
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: of a wrist.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: Not everybody can make that throw.
• 28:02
  Speaker 7: No, you're exactly right. Williams has great speed. DeMario Douglas,
• 28:06
  Speaker 7: I was kidding about their receivers. Douglas is an excellent
• 28:09
  Speaker 7: slot receiver, guys. Very quick. He uncovered on a big
• 28:12
  Speaker 7: play last week in Miami. And they did all of
• 28:15
  Speaker 7: this in a torrential rain in the second half of
• 28:17
  Speaker 7: that ballgame. And they had to move the ball through
• 28:19
  Speaker 7: the air downfield. And they did it without Hunter Henry,
• 28:23
  Speaker 7: who's their leading receiver. So this is an interesting football team.
• 28:27
  Speaker 7: they've been banged up with injuries, especially on the offensive line,
• 28:31
  Speaker 7: as have the Packers.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: So these two teams mirror one another.
• 28:35
  Speaker 7: These two quarterbacks are going to be fun to watch,
• 28:37
  Speaker 7: especially if we get a clear good day in New England.
• 28:41
  Speaker 6: The Patriots game, the Patriots are going to face, they're
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: going to Munich after this, right?
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Face the Lions.
• 28:48
  Speaker 6: They just came off of two road games, home against Packers,
• 28:51
  Speaker 6: and then going to Munich. That's not an easy stretch
• 28:52
  Speaker 6: for them. But the Packers now, they're looking after Sunday,
• 28:58
  Speaker 6: they've got the Vikings, Rams, Saints, and Bills. So we
• 29:01
  Speaker 6: were talking about the stretch for the Packers being pretty
• 29:04
  Speaker 6: pivotal for both teams. Is that just this time of year, Wayne,
• 29:07
  Speaker 6: or is this like a four-game stretch where you're going
• 29:09
  Speaker 6: to find out what you're made of?
• 29:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it really is for the Packers. It's just the
• 29:13
  Speaker 7: way the schedule broke, Drew. I mean, the Patriots had
• 29:16
  Speaker 7: a lot of tough teams early on in the season,
• 29:19
  Speaker 7: as did the Rams and the Seahawks and And you
• 29:22
  Speaker 7: find that those teams have some blemishes, obviously, on their records.
• 29:26
  Speaker 7: But for the Packers, I think this is a real
• 29:29
  Speaker 7: crucial stretch. If they can win two of these next
• 29:32
  Speaker 7: three games, and that would take them through Thanksgiving, and
• 29:35
  Speaker 7: get to a what seven and four record with, you know,
• 29:39
  Speaker 7: six games to go, they would be in a position
• 29:42
  Speaker 7: to make a playoff run, but this is going to
• 29:44
  Speaker 7: be easier said than done starting this weekend in new England, where,
• 29:47
  Speaker 7: as I mentioned, they haven't won in two decades.
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: It's tough to be counting losses already this early way,
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: but it does feel like it's going to be seven
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: teams for five spots, the East and South.
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: Somebody is going to win those divisions.
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: And then the everybody, but Arizona in the West and
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: everybody in the NFC North is right in it. Watching
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: Chicago on Monday night. I got to say, Oh, look,
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: That was a tough hate watch, Wayne. I was excited
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: to be able to watch and see Seattle roll the
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: Bears and make that offense look a little more pedestrian.
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: We haven't seen anybody dice up that McDonald offense other
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: than McVay than Caleb and the Caleb Ben Johnson and
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: the Bears. That seems like a real outfit that the
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: Packers are going to have to be competing with here
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: at the end of the day.
• 30:35
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I think you're right, Billy, and we won't have
• 30:37
  Speaker 7: to worry about them until Christmas Day, but that's going
• 30:40
  Speaker 7: to be an interesting ball game down the road, depending
• 30:43
  Speaker 7: on where these two teams are by then. I mean,
• 30:45
  Speaker 7: it could be drastically different for both teams by then.
• 30:49
  Speaker 7: Bears were so impressive in that Seattle game because that
• 30:52
  Speaker 7: Mike McDonald defense is for real now. They've got some
• 30:55
  Speaker 7: problems offensively, do the Seahawks, and Sam Darnold has kind
• 30:59
  Speaker 7: of reverted a little bit. He's regressed from his last
• 31:02
  Speaker 7: two seasons. But nonetheless, that defense is for real. Caleb
• 31:06
  Speaker 7: Williams and the Bears went into Seattle, and they had
• 31:09
  Speaker 7: their way. Dare I say, they're the best team in
• 31:12
  Speaker 7: the division right now, and the other team that's playing
• 31:15
  Speaker 7: really good football right now are the Detroit Lions.
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they might be one of the best teams in
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: the NFC. Right now, it feels like they might be
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: playing some of that best ball. Wayne, you mentioned who
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: you are and what these teams are. How different have
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: the Packers been, or have they not really missed as
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: much of a beat? without their two inside linebackers. Feels
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: like McDuffie and Hopper have filled in exceptionally well, better
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: than I would have anticipated when you lose Franklin and
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: Cooper in less than three weeks.
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think the key there is Hopper.
• 31:45
  Speaker 7: You know, all of us knew he had athletic ability,
• 31:48
  Speaker 7: and we saw it on special teams coverage. There's no
• 31:50
  Speaker 7: doubt about that. But you wondered if he was in
• 31:53
  Speaker 7: there at linebacker, could he make the plays? Could he cover?
• 31:56
  Speaker 7: Could he rush the passer? Could he make things happen?
• 31:59
  Speaker 7: and he's done all of that. He did all of
• 32:01
  Speaker 7: that against Carolina, and I just think that's the big
• 32:04
  Speaker 7: key right there. Now, McDuffie, we know about him, and
• 32:07
  Speaker 7: he went in for Zaire Franklin. He's running the defense.
• 32:10
  Speaker 7: He's got the communication dot on the helmet. That is
• 32:13
  Speaker 7: no surprise, but I think the Hopper contribution is a
• 32:16
  Speaker 7: bit of a surprise. We all knew he had ability,
• 32:19
  Speaker 7: but he's not edgering Cooper. However, he stepped up and
• 32:22
  Speaker 7: filled the void so far.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: Another guy who stepped up, Wayne, Brenton Cox. Big time.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: He's been playing pretty well.
• 32:30
  Speaker 7: In the last month, Drew, he's among the league leaders
• 32:33
  Speaker 7: in quarterback pressures.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: Brenton Cox has just been outstanding.
• 32:37
  Speaker 7: You know, when you look at him and deny Dennis
• 32:39
  Speaker 7: Sutton and now Hopper, you've got some playmakers in the
• 32:43
  Speaker 7: front seven of that defense, and you haven't even added
• 32:46
  Speaker 7: Michael Parsons yet.
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: Well, and that's the thing. I mean, deny Dennis Sutton,
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: Brenton Cox, and what they have in the back end.
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: Brandon Cisse gets named Rookie of the Month defensively, Wayne.
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: And we could see it early on in camp that
• 33:01
  Speaker 4: he was going to be ready for the challenge. I
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: don't know that I anticipated he would be this good
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: and this consistent already eight games in.
• 33:09
  Speaker 7: Well, and Evan Williams, the safety, has been named NFC
• 33:12
  Speaker 7: Defensive Player of the Month. So, you know, hey, these
• 33:15
  Speaker 7: guys have really stepped up. And furthermore, Jonathan Gannon the
• 33:18
  Speaker 7: other day was saying that You know, if you look
• 33:20
  Speaker 7: at Keyshawn Nixon and he gets a lot of gruff
• 33:23
  Speaker 7: from the fans, but he's.
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: Played at a starter's level. He has been solid.
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: He's been very good this season on a consistent basis,
• 33:30
  Speaker 7: which they needed him to be. So the secondary, I've
• 33:34
  Speaker 7: got to tell you guys, the Packers secondary, we all
• 33:36
  Speaker 7: knew the safeties were good, but the corners have been
• 33:38
  Speaker 7: a little better than I think we expected. And that's
• 33:41
  Speaker 7: been a big boon to this defense. And outside of
• 33:43
  Speaker 7: the first couple of weeks now, this defense has settled
• 33:46
  Speaker 7: in and played very good football.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: Be interesting to see how they go against the depleted.
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: Receiver core yeah no doubt about it there's not a
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: whole lot of guys there for the patriots to be
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: uh to be thrown to one thing that the patriots
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: do really well wayne stop the run.
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they do, don't they? 92 yards a game.
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: This is not going to be the week to maybe
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: try to find a run game, although we desperately are
• 34:07
  Speaker 4: trying to look for one and would love to be
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: able to see if anybody's handing one out. What do
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: you make of Josh Jacobs' return to the lineup? We
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: did a, what are we not talking enough about? And
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: a friend of ours said 21 carries for 39 yards
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: against the Panthers, who are like the worst run defense
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: in football. Do you see it being a Jacobs thing,
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: an offensive line combination of the both?
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: What have you noticed in his return so far?
• 34:28
  Speaker 7: Well, it's football, so it's probably a combination of the both.
• 34:31
  Speaker 7: We all want it to be one thing. It's never
• 34:33
  Speaker 7: quite one thing. But I think for the most part,
• 34:35
  Speaker 7: it's a line. You know, on the touchdown run he
• 34:39
  Speaker 7: had against Carolina, that kind of jump cut he made
• 34:42
  Speaker 7: to get into the end zone was an electric kind
• 34:45
  Speaker 7: of move. Nobody's talking about that. But that tells you
• 34:47
  Speaker 7: Josh Jacobs is fine. He's 100%. I think that offensive
• 34:52
  Speaker 7: line is the issue. People have been clamoring for Goody
• 34:55
  Speaker 7: to make a trade for a running back.
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: Maybe he will. Maybe he won't.
• 34:58
  Speaker 7: If he doesn't, it pretty much tells you what they think,
• 35:01
  Speaker 7: that it's not a back problem. It's a line problem,
• 35:04
  Speaker 7: and that's harder to solve. If the line is real
• 35:07
  Speaker 7: good and all you needed was a running back, you
• 35:09
  Speaker 7: can go out and get a running back. But when
• 35:11
  Speaker 7: you've got to get a new offensive line or find
• 35:14
  Speaker 7: some cohesion in the offensive line, put something together week
• 35:18
  Speaker 7: to week. It's been a lot of combinations. Patriots are
• 35:21
  Speaker 7: in the same boat. As the Packers in that regard,
• 35:23
  Speaker 7: their line has performed much better than Green Bay's. But
• 35:26
  Speaker 7: I really think the problem in the running game has
• 35:28
  Speaker 7: more to do with the line than it does.
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: With the back.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: You think there'll be any changes on the line?
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: We've been waiting.
• 35:36
  Speaker 7: I can't wait to see the walkthrough tomorrow morning because
• 35:39
  Speaker 7: that's when I'll know for sure. But you know what?
• 35:43
  Speaker 7: It wouldn't surprise me. And this is just me talking
• 35:46
  Speaker 7: off the top, all right? It wouldn't surprise me to
• 35:49
  Speaker 7: see that they decide to go with, okay, Let's put
• 35:52
  Speaker 7: Tomlinson back at left guard. Let's put Zeitler in right
• 35:55
  Speaker 7: guard and let's go. Let's see where we are with
• 35:57
  Speaker 7: these two veteran guards. But as you know, there's a
• 36:01
  Speaker 7: business aspect to football and, um, you know, I, I
• 36:05
  Speaker 7: know they want to get big Aaron banks in there.
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: And get them going. Uh, didn't go so well last week.
• 36:10
  Speaker 7: Maybe it will go better this week, a second week
• 36:12
  Speaker 7: in there if they decide to go that route. But, um,
• 36:15
  Speaker 7: you know, I think Tomlinson performed solidly at left guard.
• 36:19
  Speaker 7: They moved them over to the right side. Um, You know,
• 36:22
  Speaker 7: he admitted didn't go quite as well over there. But
• 36:26
  Speaker 7: Zeitler is a right guard, has been his whole career.
• 36:28
  Speaker 7: If he's ready to go, I think your best five
• 36:31
  Speaker 7: might be Tomlinson, a left guard, Zeitler, a right tackle.
• 36:34
  Speaker 7: In my humble opinion, I'm not the coach. I'm not
• 36:37
  Speaker 7: the GM. So don't hold me to it.
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: It's the one thing you haven't seen yet. We've seen
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: how good or the lack thereof all of it's been before.
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: Doesn't feel like it hurts to try.
• 36:49
  Speaker 6: I just have to go back and watch old film
• 36:52
  Speaker 6: back when Packers offensive lineman used to get to the
• 36:54
  Speaker 6: second level and hit linebackers because it's been a while
• 36:56
  Speaker 6: since I've seen that. They haven't gotten past the first
• 37:01
  Speaker 6: group the first way.
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: You know what, guys?
• 37:03
  Speaker 7: Billy, you kind of remarked on it. New England's good
• 37:07
  Speaker 7: against the run. Why are they good against the run? Well,
• 37:09
  Speaker 7: their three interior defensive tackles are outstanding. Really, Milton Williams,
• 37:15
  Speaker 7: the free agent from Philadelphia two years ago, Christian Barmore,
• 37:20
  Speaker 7: high second round draft choice number of years ago. I
• 37:23
  Speaker 7: was really impressed in the Miami game with Corey Durden,
• 37:26
  Speaker 7: who I had never heard of. And apparently I talked
• 37:28
  Speaker 7: to some friends in New England. He hadn't done anything
• 37:31
  Speaker 7: till the Miami game, but my God, he looked like
• 37:33
  Speaker 7: a Lee McNeil in that Miami game.
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: He was dominant.
• 37:36
  Speaker 7: And then the two inside linebackers, Christian Ellis, who began
• 37:40
  Speaker 7: his career primarily as a special teams guy has developed
• 37:43
  Speaker 7: into a very good run-stopping linebacker, and I think a
• 37:46
  Speaker 7: complete linebacker. I saw him defend against the pass. He
• 37:49
  Speaker 7: was effective on the blitz. And the other guy is
• 37:52
  Speaker 7: Robert Spillane inside. They make a lot of plays, guys.
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: This is a.
• 37:55
  Speaker 7: Defense well-built from within the middle part of the defense
• 38:00
  Speaker 7: to the second level.
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: Very good.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: And Spillane is just a gamer.
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: Everywhere he goes, he produces, and he's been on a
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: number of different teams, Drew, and everywhere he goes– Just
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: flies around and makes tackles.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: He is going to be a pest, no doubt about it.
• 38:12
  Speaker 7: This is a defense, Billy, that doesn't have a great
• 38:15
  Speaker 7: deal of star power to it, save for Christian Gonzalez,
• 38:19
  Speaker 7: the cornerback, and he is a shutdown corner. But beyond that,
• 38:23
  Speaker 7: the beauty of this defense, they play together. They're well coached.
• 38:27
  Speaker 7: They're never out of position. this is going to be
• 38:30
  Speaker 7: a tough one to crack. They're not going to give
• 38:32
  Speaker 7: you anything.
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: No, and you're going to have to be really patient.
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: You're going to have to take what's there and take
• 38:37
  Speaker 4: a lot of checkdowns. Some of the Packers haven't always
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: been good at doing.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: That's true.
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: They play their safeties deep. They play a lot of
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: man coverage.
• 38:44
  Speaker 7: I believe they're second in the league in terms of
• 38:47
  Speaker 7: amount of time spent in man coverage defensively. I always
• 38:51
  Speaker 7: like that with the matchups with Golden and Watson against
• 38:54
  Speaker 7: tight man coverage. But again, what New England does a
• 38:57
  Speaker 7: lot of is they keep at least one and mostly defensively.
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: Two safeties deep to try to keep things in front.

  Speaker 6: It has been a fun week here, you know, kind
• 42:47
  Speaker 6: of basking in the reflected glow of the Brewers.

• 42:53
  Speaker 2: to talk about.
