Summary
The phones are ringing off the hook and the anticipation is at a fever pitch as Packernet After Dark breaks down the most significant Bears-Packers playoff matchup since 2010. With Ben Johnson's now-infamous "here we play football" comment echoing through the fanbase, callers are fired up and ready to see the Pack put Chicago in its place on Wild Card Weekend.
The energy from Packer nation is electric as fans call in to discuss the health advantage after a week of rest, Nathaniel Hackett's return to the facility and what it means for the red zone struggles, and whether this game defines the legacies of both Jordan Love and Matt LaFleur. One caller delivers an impassioned plea to stop the negativity and just enjoy the ride, while another warns that the Packers may have created a confident monster in Caleb Williams after letting him off the hook in Week 18. Plus, a heartwarming story about a listener's wife becoming a devoted fan of the show.
If you want to be part of the conversation, call in at 608-501-0718. New callers go to the front of the line. Go Pack Go!
