Pack In Full Command | Packers 27-18 Over Commanders | LempsTalkinPack #217

from Packers Talk · host Chris Lempesis

Chris Lempesis is back to break down the Green Bay Packers’ 27-18 Thursday night win over the Washington Commanders, moving the Pack to 2-0 on the season.Once again, the defense stole the show. Chris details how Micah Parsons, Rashan Gary, Edgerrin Cooper, Keyshawn Nixon, and company swarmed Jayden Daniels all night, holding Washington’s explosive offense in check and reminding fans of the great Packers defenses of the past. He highlights the relentless pass rush, Nixon’s five pass breakups, and why this unit already feels like the deepest and fastest Green Bay defense in decades.On offense, it was a bit more uneven — but still full of positives. Jordan Love threw for 292 yards and two touchdowns, Tucker Kraft turned in a monster night (124 yards and a score), and Josh Jacobs kept his touchdown streak alive. Chris discusses the big plays, the missed opportunities, and why Matt LaFleur’s play-calling showed flashes of brilliance.He also addresses injuries to Jaden Reed and what it means for the wide receiver room, and he closes with a sampling of your questions and comments from social media — plenty of excitement after another statement win at Lambeau.You can follow Chris on twitter at LempsMKE (@ItsJustChrisNow)LempsTalkingPack is a part of the Packers Talk family of podcasts, serving up enough weekly podcasts to satisfy the most fervent of Packer fans.

Chris Lempesis recaps the Packers’ 27-18 win over Washington — Jordan Love shines, Tucker Kraft breaks out, and Micah Parsons leads a dominant defense. Of course, he doesn’t stop there. Chris shares his thoughts on what this win means for the NFC North, why this felt like a statement game, and he reads through your questions and comments from social media and email — and yes, Packers Nation was fired up. This is one big show (no Tuesday mailbag this week due to the short turnaround), but Chris will be back after Thursday night’s game against Washington and the mailbag returns the following week.

Humanizing Change Tremendousness Join us each episode as we talk with innovators in their respective fields about their unique journeys and how they humanize change in their own work, right here, on Humanizing Change. AI Erik's Podcast Audio Erik Conn The AI News Podcast where we talk AI. NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next.
