Bulaga Backs Love-LaFleur and World Cup Dream

Homer and Bryan Bulaga open the hour with Homer’s theory that the NFC North could end in a division tie, while Bulaga says he still expects one clear winner even if the race is tight. The conversation shifts to Jordan Love, Caleb Williams, Matt LaFleur and Ben Johnson, with Bulaga choosing the Love-LaFleur pairing because Love is more consistent and LaFleur has sustained success. Homer and Bulaga also debate how unfair the NFL’s seventh seed setup feels, comparing it to expanded World Cup formats and the uphill climb of having to beat the No. 2 seed and then the No. 1 seed on the road. Later, Homer apologizes for not reading Jason Wilde’s work, discusses Packers offensive line competition, and explains how losing his backpack also meant losing his hairpieces. The hour closes with Brewers talk around Jacob Misiorowski, Milwaukee needing another starting pitcher, and the idea that a U.S. men’s World Cup title would be the greatest sports achievement in American history.
