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