The 2026 schedule release is official, and the Green Bay Packers are heading to Soldier Field on Christmas Day for a Week 16 showdown with the Chicago Bears.

Pack Daddy is digging into the 2026 schedule release breadcrumbs, the latest Packers waiver wire moves, and a full statistical case for why Christian Watson belongs in the top 10 wide receiver conversation. Pack Nation, this is the kind of analytical deep dive the mainstream media isn't doing on the Green Bay receiver room. 🏟️ Schedule release conspiracy theory — why Week One in Chicago makes too much sense for the NFL's narrative push around Caleb Williams, and what a Micah-less Packers team walks into out of the gate 📋 Waiver wire breakdown on CB MJ Devonshire (former Raiders 7th-rounder out of Pitt) and TE Luke Lachey (Iowa, son of Jim Lachey) and where they fit on the depth chart 🩹 The real Christian Watson injury history — separating recurring soft tissue issues from fluke contact injuries, why the hamstring problem is solved, and what the ACL recovery actually showed 📊 The numbers nobody is talking about — 11th in PFF receiving grade, 9th in yards per route run, 5th in yards per reception, one All-Pro vote, and a top 10 efficiency ranking from PFSN 🎙️ Romeo Doubs on facing Green Bay, the Adrian Peterson Ring of Honor news, and where Watson fits alongside a healthy Tucker Kraft, Jayden Reed, and Matthew Golden Subscribe, rate, and share with a fellow Packer fan who still thinks Watson is "just a deep threat."

Pack Daddy is back in the late-night chair and Pack Nation showed up swinging.

BREAKING NEWS out of the NFL offices — the Green Bay Packers are headed to primetime in a way we've never seen before. For the first time in league history, the NFL will play a Thanksgiving Eve game, and Pack Nation is at the center of it.

We break down what this means for the franchise, the fans, and the road to January. 🦃 The historic significance of the first-ever Thanksgiving Eve game and why the NFL picked Green Bay to headline it 🏈 Matchup breakdown: Jordan Love vs the Rams defense, plus how Jonathan Gannon's unit handles McVay's offensive scheme 📅 Short-week implications, travel logistics, and what this does to the Packers' practice schedule heading into a critical stretch 🔥 Pack Nation reaction and what a primetime stage means for Matthew Golden, the offensive line, and our playoff positioning Subscribe, rate, and review wherever you get your podcasts, and join the conversation across all our platforms.

Big Sal from Peshtigo is pacing a hole in the carpet and he's got a handwritten list. The 2026 NFL schedule drops tomorrow night at 7 PM central, and Sal has SIX hopes for Pack Nation — and he's reading them to you whether you like it or not. From nine home games at Lambeau to a frozen Caleb Williams in December, this is a man who's been thinking about the schedule for three days straight and openly admits his brain is broken. 🧀 Why all nine home games at Lambeau is already a win — and what Munich would've cost us ❄️ The December Bears game Big Sal NEEDS and his brutal Caleb Williams ice-fishing analogy 🦃 Keeping the Thanksgiving streak alive — Cowboys at Lambeau on Turkey Day storyline potential 🏟️ Micah Parsons' revenge game, a Sunday night opener demand, and one petty Cowboys hope Subscribe right now, leave that five-star review, and tune in tomorrow night for the full schedule reaction show — game by game, prime time slot by prime time slot.

Brick's scraping the vault tonight — and it shows. Four songs, two of them not even Packers tracks, and somehow it still adds up to one of the more honest hours he's put on the air. We open in the ring with Eight Limbs of War — a Muay Thai sermon with drums, straight out of Ryan's personal stash. Then we walk the division down with Suck It, a cold-cut industrial chant for the three cities that talk more than they win. We sit in the Cleveland wound with Ten to Nothing (Gone to Waste) — September's collapse, scored in boom-bap, and a reminder that the football gods wrote the same script against Unitas back in nineteen sixty-five. Same ending. Sixty years apart. Same exact wound. Then we walk out of it. Green Bay Thunder closes the show with Lombardi's ghost in the rafters and a quest that hasn't ended yet. Four songs. One sermon. No filler. You were never alone out there.

Big Sal is fired up, Pack Nation, and he's putting his contract predictions on the record. Three deals. Three players. Three numbers that are going to define the future of this Packers roster. Kraft, Watson, Wyatt — all sitting on Brian Gutekunst's desk like a stack of bills you keep meaning to deal with. Big Sal is dealing with them right now. 🧀 Tucker Kraft — Why the injury discount window is closing fast and the exact four-year, seventy-two million dollar number Sal is mortgaging the house on 🏈 Christian Watson — Why the long-term deal is NOT happening in 2026, how Alec Pierce is about to reset the market, and the 2027 offseason number Sal is calling right now 💥 Devonte Wyatt — The contract that scares Gutekunst the most, why the interior pass rush market has gone bananas, and the one prediction Sal changed his mind on If Big Sal is right, he wants a parade in downtown Peshtigo. If he's wrong, you can throw it in his face — he's not hard to find. He's the loud one. Hit subscribe, leave a five-star review, share this with one Bears fan in your life. Stay loud. Stay green.

The end of 2025 left a bad taste in everyone's mouth — but the numbers tell a very different story than the vibes. Ryan digs into DVOA, EPA per play, success rate, and drop-back efficiency to show that, even through chaos and injuries, the Packers fielded one of the best offenses in football. The real disappointment? A defense that should have been elite under Jeff Hafley and dragged the whole operation down. 🏈 Why DVOA had Green Bay's offense at 12.4% above average — and what that actually means heading into 2026 📊 EPA and success rate breakdowns showing the Packers were a top-five passing offense, not the mess fans remember 💰 McManus released post-June 1: cap savings, the 2027 dead cap hit, and what $18.7M in space says about Gutekunst's plans 🎯 Revisiting the Pittsburgh game — the one time Jordan Love, Tucker Kraft, Christian Watson, and Micah Parsons were all on the field together If you've bought into the doom-and-gloom narrative, this one's going to challenge how you see this roster.

The garage light is still on. The engine's still off. Brick Lombardi pulls up a chair behind the mic for another late-night ride through Tundra FM — four tracks, four genres, one team, and a Pittsburgh stadium that thinks it has the Pack figured out. From a chopper rap that drops names faster than you can write them down to a hair metal power ballad burning the noise to the ground, this one hits every frequency Pack Nation lives on. 🎤 Chopper Wrap 92nd Street Chicago — Love, Kraft, Jacobs, Golden, Gary, Parsons, McKinney all flying at warp speed against the Steelers' six-game home win streak 🌎 Fan Primero (Reggaeton) — A bilingual love letter to the loyalty that doesn't need translation, from San Juan to Milwaukee to Guadalajara 🎷 Cheer (Vocal Jazz Ballad) — Brushed drums, muted trumpet, and the Cleveland heartbreak nobody writes songs about until somebody finally did 🎸 In the Cold Lambeau Night (Hair Metal Power Ballad) — Twin guitars, Hammond organ, and the receipts on every quarterback getting crowned for doing what Love already does Stay for the whole thing. Brick noticed last time. He'll notice again. #Packers #GoPackGo #TundraFM #BrickLombardi #PackerNation #NFL #SteelersVsPackers #SundayNightFootball This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Big Sal from Peshtigo is fired up — and Pack Nation, this one has been brewing for two solid years. Jordan Morgan is finally — FINALLY — being handed the left tackle job he was drafted to play, and Sal is here to tell you why this might be the single most important position battle on the entire 2026 Packers roster. 🏈 The musical-chairs saga: 1,035 career snaps, only 51 at left tackle, and the rusted-grain-silo analogy that explains everything 🛡️ Why Jordan Love's $220 million blindside hangs on number 77 — and why there is NO Plan B behind him 📊 The Arizona tape nobody's talking about: 37 starts at left tackle, two sacks allowed in 787 snaps, and an 87.3 PFF grade in 2023 🔥 Sal's bold prediction: Top-ten left tackle in the NFL by season's end — bookmark it If you like Big Sal getting fired up about offensive line play with deer-rifle analogies and a healthy dose of Darlene yelling from the other room, smash subscribe, leave a five-star review, and tell a friend.

Pack Daddy is running on fumes after Mother's Day food coma — so Pack Nation steps up and carries the show with some absolute heaters. From punchable faces in sports media to the Jordan love slander that just won't die, this one builds to one of the most legendary caller rants in After Dark history. Buckle up. 🎙️ TJ from Alabama opens it up dunking on the Danny Parkins / Nick Wright industrial complex and the unearned arrogance of national talking heads 🦵 Brandon McManus officially cut — Beer Cheese Benny and TJ break down why Trey Smack is the right move and why the playoff misses sealed McManus's fate ⚖️ Drew from Green Bay digs into the new NFL referee CBA — the league quietly won this negotiation with accountability measures and a developmental bench of refs 🔥 Chris from Alabama goes SCORCHED EARTH on the Jordan Love slander, the "should've drafted a receiver" crowd, and stamps Love as your 2026 NFL MVP Plus Aaron from Idaho asks the hard question — how do you actually quantify "clutch"? Is the Love-isn't-clutch narrative fair, or just lazy Bears-fan cope being recycled by Packer fans who should know better? Hit subscribe, leave a review, and call the show — 608-501-0718.

Ryan goes deep on a post-mortem of the 2025 Green Bay Packers offense — and what he finds is even worse than memory suggests. There was exactly one game all season where the Packers got close to full strength on offense (Week 8 vs. Pittsburgh), and even that came without Jaden Reed and with a rotating right guard. Every other week was a new patch job. 🏈 Week-by-week injury chronology — Watson, Tucker Kraft, Reed, Zach Tom, Elton Jenkins, and Josh Jacobs all missed significant time, often back-to-back-to-back, with no chance for the offense to gel 🏈 The Jordan Morgan position carousel — 51 snaps at LT, 191 at LG, 358 at RG, 219 at RT. A first-round pick asked to play four positions all year 🏈 Sean Ryan, Anthony Belton, Aaron Banks, Darian Kennard, Jacob Monk — the offensive line dysfunction underneath the headline injuries 🏈 Why judging the 2026 Packers on the 2025 product is intellectually lazy — you don't apply that standard to Detroit, Chicago, or Minnesota, so why apply it to Green Bay? If you want to evaluate this roster honestly, you have to evaluate it healthy — same as every other team.

Big Sal is in the driveway at midnight staring at a snow blower he still hasn't fixed — and he's got something to tell you. Yesterday was the excited list. Today is the OTHER list.

Ryan opens with a quick breakdown of the Brandon McManus release — and why it was always the obvious move once the Packers drafted Smaack. No fake competition needed. Then it's on to the main event: the Jordan Love inconsistency narrative that refuses to die, and Ryan is done letting it breathe. Armed with PFF grades, coefficient of variation analysis, and week-by-week comparisons across the entire NFL, Ryan methodically dismantles the "wildly inconsistent" label that fans and media have slapped on Love without a shred of data to back it up. McManus release explained: why roster math and draft logic made this inevitable from day one Jonathan Gannon calls Jordan Love "top tier" — and AJ Hawk's hesitant response says more than he intended PFF grade breakdowns for Love, Josh Allen, Stafford, Dak, Goff, Caleb Williams, Drake May, and Bo Nix — the numbers don't lie Standard deviation and CV analysis reveals Love as the second-most consistent starter in the NFL behind only Josh Allen Stop repeating talking points you can't back up. Ryan's challenge to every Packer fan and hater alike: prove it — or stop saying it. #GreenBayPackers #JordanLove #NFLDraft #PackerNation #PFF #NFLAnalysis #Packers2025 #BrandonMcManus #ConsistencyDebate #PackernetPodcast This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Pack Daddy is back behind the phones and the callers are FIRED UP. 🎙️ From referee accountability to spiraling Jordan Love takes, tonight's After Dark is exactly what the doctor ordered — unfiltered, late-night Packers talk with the crew you love. 🦇 Batman (x3 Tonight) — Drops a deep dive on why the NFL should be hiring 121 full-time refs at $250K a pop, reacts to the new ref agreement and what "accountability" actually means, and calls out the absurdity of Sirius XM crowning Dallas for landing Rashaun Gary and Kenny Clark. 🍺 Randy from Minnesota — Trace McSorley giving off serious Jordy Nelson vibes? Also fires up a great point about "lost snaps" vs. replaced snaps — Pack Daddy runs with it hard. 🌎 Daniel from California — Makes a compelling case that Jonathan Gannon's praise of Matt LaFleur tells you everything you need to know about how the NFL's elite coaches view him. Respect is earned, folks. 🎙️ Nico from Idaho — Sets the record straight on the Nico vs. Uncle Rico confusion once and for all (it's the lips and the mumbling, apparently). 🏈 The Jordan Love Spiral — Pack Daddy goes on a mini warpath after Batman reports a caller genuinely ranked Love fourth in the NFC North behind Caleb Williams.

Brick Lombardi is back behind the mic, and he brought the war drums with him. Volume 2 of Tundra FM rolls through four original Packers anthems — heavier, stranger, and more cinematic than the first — with Brick's 30-year radio veteran voice threading it all together like a late-night transmission from somewhere frozen and beautiful. Tonight's setlist: Creeping Death (Green & Gold) — A Metallica-flavored plague descends on Lambeau. Opponents don't visit. They become cautionary tales. Lombardi's curse is operational. Yak God Two — Tucker Craft is a theological problem. Six-five, 260, ran a 4.6, and somehow the straight line after contact is the slow part. Farm boy power is real and it is punishing. The Predator Two — A tribute to Clay Matthews and 12 relentless seasons. The neck scan that made a surgeon go quiet. The comeback that was never in doubt. Legends aren't built on mercy. This Is My Domain — A special request from Riley for Yoshi the cat — a stray with no collar, no name, running on pure instinct until one dog changed everything. Brick has taken requests from grieving widows and truck stop philosophers. Tonight, a couch-owning cat gets his song.

Big Sal from Peshtigo has a LIST. The snow blower's still in pieces in the garage, Darlene hasn't said a word about it — and Sal has been sitting at the kitchen table in May fired up about the 2026 Green Bay Packers like it's already September at Lambeau. Today he runs through the five things keeping him up at night in the BEST possible way. Tucker Kraft is healthy and back — and Sal says he was on his way to All-Pro before the injury stole him from us last year Matthew Golden steps into a full WR role alongside Jayden Reed, and Jordan Love now has a "beautiful problem" on his hands Javon Hargrave brings 49 career interior sacks and an existing relationship with DC Jonathan Gannon — and he already helped collapse the pocket before Marv at the bait shop even knew his name Zaire Franklin is a second-team All-Pro run-stopper who cost the Packers Colby Wooden — highway robbery, plain and simple Micah Parsons is 26 years old, recovering from ACL surgery, and coming back ANGRY — and Big Sal says a healthy Parsons next to this rebuilt front is a Super Bowl-caliber defense Subscribe, leave a five-star review on Spotify, and tell Sal he's wrong.

Ryan rips through the latest NFL news on this loaded edition of the Packernet Podcast — from the Vikings' assistant-GM-of-the-week parade to Aaron Rodgers' expected landing spot in Pittsburgh, with contract talks reportedly hovering around $30 million per year. Then it's time for the main event: a full-throated demolition of a clueless Bears-fan journalist who tried to argue the Rams shouldn't have drafted Ty Simpson — and used Jordan Love as his "evidence." Spoiler: it doesn't go well for him. Key topics covered: Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers reportedly closing in on a deal — and why $30 million isn't actually crazy in today's quarterback market The 2027 NFL Draft class is being hyped as potentially generational, validating Green Bay's decision to stockpile next year's picks A point-by-point takedown of the absurd argument that the Packers should've drafted T Higgins instead of Jordan Love — and why that fantasy timeline collapses the second you actually think about it Rotowire's "most hated NFL team" rankings have the Packers tied for the top spot, and Ryan explains why that's exactly the way it should be in the Packers' division Hit subscribe, leave a rating, and share this one with every Bears fan still clinging to the Jordan Love hate. #Packers #GoPackGo #PackerNation #NFL #JordanLove #AaronRodgers #Steelers #NFLDraft2027 #NFCNorth #PackernetPodcast #BrianGutekunst #Rams This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Five songs deep, this one runs the full spectrum: from satirical rage at the ever-shrinking dictionary to the quiet, heavy weight of loving a team that doesn't always love you back the same way. What's inside this episode: "Canceled" — A blistering alphabet anthem about the words that vanish overnight, the committees that approve the messages, and the handbook that updates on Tuesdays. "Could You Be Love (Part Two)" — A reggae-tinged second verse for Jordan Love, because the question keeps getting bigger and the answer isn't done yet. "Lambo's Nightmare Two" — The blame storm returns. Players? Coach? Scheme? Every Packer fan is fighting a different war in the same stadium. "Lonely / The Heaviest Crown" — The closer. Decades of standing in the cold, counting seasons instead of trophies, and the cost of a love that keeps asking for more. Tundra FM stays on. The songs don't make themselves for nothing.

The Chicago Sun-Times ran a piece calling the Bears "stable by comparison," and brother, that is the rallying cry of a team that has already accepted third place. Big Sal reads it word for word and tears it apart brick by brick. The Bears' beat writer called Caleb Williams' year-three ceiling "making questions a little less acute" — while Jordan Love is 26 years old, healthy, and surrounded by a full arsenal. Big Sal explains what that gap actually looks like on a cold November Sunday. Garrett Bradbury and a non-premium safety. That is the offseason that earned the "stable" headline. Big Sal is not trying to be mean — he just needs you to see it for what it is. Micah Parsons is coming back. Jonathan Gannon is building a defense on purpose. And the projections — buried in the same article celebrating stability — have Chicago finishing third. Big Sal noticed. Patrick Finley should save this episode.

Pack Daddy is back and the phone lines are wide open — and Uncle Rico shows up three times to absolutely destroy everyone's brain. Tonight's After Dark goes deep on whether the consensus big board is actually worth anything, why AI and robotics might end employment as we know it, and what happens when the economy runs out of humans to pay. It's the philosophical crisis you didn't know you needed on a Monday night. Uncle Rico goes on a trilogy run — questioning the value of consensus big boards, attempting to unpack the UBI/robotics economy loop (and nearly succeeding), and wondering aloud why Chase Claypool chose the Packers over literally anyone else The Gannon media blackout gets discussed — why he's reportedly been kept quiet, and the tension between wanting insider access and what's actually best for the team Batman drops a hot take that Pack Daddy agrees with on tomorrow's podcast: GuteKunst has quietly had a masterclass offseason and the fanbase just refuses to give him credit because it wasn't flashy Nico from Idaho checks in with Idaho potato air fryer content, the Mr. Unlimited saga, and a passionate defense of words the internet has tried to retire Garrett pitches a Mother's Day song, Cheesecake Factory becomes the unanimous answer to all gift-giving, and the Patreon salary cap spreadsheet finally goes live Subscribe, rate, and review — and if you want the spreadsheet, you know where to find it. #PackernetAfterDark #GreenBayPackers #NFLDraft #PackDaddy #PackerNation #AI #Robotics #UBI #GuteKunst #AfterDark #NFL #Packers2025 This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

And yet, here we are. 🎵 Tonight's Vault Selections: 🩲 "Poopy Pants Packers Fans" — An anthem for every soul who eulogized the season before a single training camp snap 🎤 "Talking About T. Higgins" — The what-if that haunted an entire fanbase, now immortalized in funk 💃 "I Love Matt LaFleur" — No metaphor. No subtext. Just the thing. ☕ "Where Did I Put My Coffee?" — A documentary. Four on the floor. Absolute urgency. 🧀 "Big Green Packer" — He named his cat Reggie. He floats the Fox River on a raft of old programs and hope. He is the reason this show exists.

🟡🟢 LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING — Packernet Podcast Network 🟢🟡 Big Sal from Peshtigo sat in his recliner like a gargoyle and watched the Jonathan Gannon press conference. Twice. And Pack Nation — he has thoughts. The man said he doesn't have a scheme. Before you shut it off, listen. Because once Sal sat with it, everything started to make sense. 🔥 What's firing Sal up this episode: Gannon's "no scheme" philosophy — build around what your players can DO, not what your playbook demands "Complex presentation, simple execution" — and why those four words mean this defense is about to confuse offensive coordinators while our guys play fast and free Fast. Violent. Physical. Takes the ball away. — That's it. That's the whole plan. And Sal is HERE for it Why Gannon giving Anthony Hargrave the credit — not himself — tells you everything about the culture being built in Green Bay Jordan Love is a TOP TIER quarterback.

Ryan Schlipp is fired up — and he's got the math to back it up. 🧮🔥 In this episode of the Packernet Podcast, Ryan goes deep on one of the most frustrating arguments in Packers fandom: judging a pass rusher solely by his sack total. Using Will Anderson Jr.'s record-breaking $50M/year extension as the framework, Ryan walks Pack Nation through an EPA-based breakdown that exposes just how little sack numbers actually tell you — and why dismissing pressures, hits, and hurries is flat-out intellectually dishonest. This episode covers: 📊 Why sacks may account for as little as 25–30% of a pass rusher's total value — and what that means for evaluating Lucas Van Ness 💥 How Will Anderson's 85 non-sack pressures are cumulatively worth more than his 17 sacks using PFF's own EPA valuations 🏈 The backup QB decision broken down — why DeShone Kizer... wait, no — why the veteran mobility approach makes the most sense for this Packers roster 🩺 Brian Gutekunst's Sirius XM update on Tucker Kraft and Micah Parsons' recovery timelines and what "early in the season" actually means Ryan isn't asking you to love advanced metrics — he's asking you to sit with the question: if sacks aren't the full picture, what is your answer?

Pack Nation calls in HOT on this edition of Packernet After Dark, and Ryan doesn't hold back either. What starts as a pile-on against ESPN's take on Lucas Van Ness snowballs into one of the most honest conversations about football media literacy, fan psychology, and why so many people refuse to evolve their thinking — even when the evidence is stacked against them. 🎙️🔥 Key Topics: 📡 ESPN Gets Torched — Garrett, Nico, Uncle Rico, and the whole crew agree: if you can't explain why pressure rate matters more than raw sack totals, you have no business evaluating pass rushers on air 🏈 Lucas Van Ness Fifth Year Option — Ryan breaks down why being surprised by this decision is actually the bigger indictment than just disagreeing with it, and why critics have already decided the outcome no matter what the stats say 🧠 The Inflexibility Problem — A sprawling, genuinely compelling rant on why fans (and media) who never change their minds never actually learn anything — and how hating Gutekunst has poisoned the well on every Packers evaluation since the Jordan Love pick 🔧 UDFA O-Line Film — Drew from Green Bay breaks down the three undrafted interior linemen, and Ryan explains why versatility is non-negotiable for any backup who wants to stick on this roster Subscribe, leave a five-star review, and call in live at 608-501-0718 — new callers go straight to the front of the line! #PackernetAfterDark #GreenBayPackers #LucasVanNess #NFLPodcast #PackNation #ESPNTakes #PressureRate #BrianGutekunst #PackernetPodcast #NFLAnalysis #PassRush #PackDaddy This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

🎙️ Brick Lombardi is back in the chair, and tonight Tundra FM goes After Dark. Five original tracks. Zero apologies. One frequency that nobody else is broadcasting on — for fans nobody else is talking to. The setlist tonight is a journey: from the storm rolling into Dallas as the Sack Attack comes calling, to the razor's edge of December 7th when 22 seconds and a Nicole Nixon catch reminded Bears fans exactly who runs the NFC North. Brick walks you through every track with the kind of commentary only a 30-year radio veteran can deliver — part eulogy, part war cry, part love letter to Pack Nation. 🎵 Tonight's Tracks: "Cowboys Into Dust" — Parsons, pressure, and a Dallas offensive line that won't survive the winter "22 Seconds" — The December 7th comeback, immortalized in song; same old story, same old Bears "Nerds" — Seven and three, baby. Can't spell DVOA, won't start now "Bad Feeling" — The Violent Femmes template, the Packers anxiety, the jangly garage guitar of a season on the edge "Driver" — Seventh round. 213th pick.

The Giants just fumbled the bag on DJ Reader, and Brian Gutekunst's phone should already be lighting up. In this fired-up rant, Sal lays out exactly why Green Bay's defensive line is missing its foundation: 🔨 Three 3-techs and zero true base down nose tackles on the roster — Wyatt, Hargrave, McClellan all the same body type 🚜 The pickup truck with no tailgate analogy that explains everything wrong with this D-line 🧊 Why the dirty work nobody sees on the stat sheet wins championships in Gannon's scheme Forget the PFF grade. Forget the zero sacks. Sal makes the case for the 335-pound, 17-games-played, double-team-eating cinder block this defense is screaming for. With $21 million in cap space and a one-year team-friendly deal sitting right there, Sal has one message for Gutey: sign the man before the Giants come to their senses.

Ryan resists the urge to "do stupid every day" and instead grinds through a loaded slate of NFL news, Packers updates, and a brutally honest deep dive into the free agent market. With 318 names floating in free agency, Ryan walks through why most of them can't help Green Bay — and where there's still one real itch the Packers haven't scratched. NFL News & Notes: The Disney/ESPN vs. Comcast standoff over NFL Network and RedZone, the Colts declining Anthony Richardson's fifth-year option, Calais Campbell signing with Baltimore at 40 years old, the Browns' Watson/Shedeur circus, and Russell Wilson retirement/TV chatter. Packers Updates: Minnesota favored to host the 2028 NFL Draft, Malik Muhammad's now-viral non-reaction to being drafted by the Bears, the Trey Smack trade-up details, five of six rookies signed (Brandon Sayer the holdout watch), and a hard reality check on the Chase Claypool tryout hype. Free Agency Deep Dive: Why Ryan keeps circling back to edge rusher as the one true need — Joey Bosa, Haason Reddick, Derek Barnett, Brandon Graham — and what kind of contract structure could actually make sense behind Van Ness and a returning Micah Parsons.

🌙 Pack Daddy is back with another wild ride through Packernet After Dark, and this one's loaded. Andy from Kansas leads off with a marathon set of calls dissecting Brian Gutekunst's six-pick draft haul, the absolute farce that is the "consensus big board," and the brewing chaos around the 2026 vs. 2027 draft class value gap.

Brick Lombardi cracks open the vault for a four-track journey that starts in the trenches against Cleveland and somehow ends up in a Lambeau trap house. Thirty years in radio and he's still finding new neighborhoods inside this frozen cathedral. Pull up a stool, the signal's strong tonight. Inside this episode of Tundra FM: Dog Pound Showdown — A cold-war anthem revisiting that defensive slugfest with the Browns, where the only thing that traveled to Lambeau was the green-and-gold armor. Nerds in Lambeau — The spreadsheet samurai finally get their theme song. EPA per drop back, CPOE, success rate — basement mic statisticians, this one's for you. The Lambo Beast / When the Stars Align — Cinematic mythology stitching together the Reggie-and-Favre era, the Rodgers-Woodson-Matthews awakening, and the question every cold Sunday in Wisconsin keeps asking: does Jordan Love wake the beast next? Pond D, Frozen Tundra — Packers trap music. It shouldn't work on paper. It works. If something hit you right tonight, share it, drop a review, and tell that one cousin who still won't admit football's a religion up here. You were never alone out there.

Sit down, Pack Nation. Pull off the road. Tell the wife to hold dinner. Big Sal's got a Sal Story Time so dark it kept him up at night and had him staring at the bird feeder for two hours before he could even eat his sandwich. Every team in the NFL has skeletons — but the Green Bay Packers hold a record nobody wants and nobody talks about: we are the ONLY franchise in league history to draft a confirmed serial killer. In this episode, Sal breaks down: Pick 428 of the 1974 NFL Draft — a Portland State wide receiver named Randall Woodfield, whose juvenile arrests were buried by his high school coaches and whose warning lights were flashing like the dashboard of a thirty-year-old pickup How Dan Devine cut him in camp because the indecent exposure didn't stop in a Packers uniform — but Woodfield stuck around Wisconsin, played semi-pro for the Manitowoc Chiefs, and worked at Oshkosh Truck before going home to Oregon The I-5 Killer spree that followed his 1979 parole — one confirmed murder, at least eighteen linked by DNA and ballistics, up to forty-four suspected — and the victims whose names don't get said enough Hit subscribe, leave a review, and tell two of your jabroni friends to listen. And next time some bozo on talk radio tells you Tony Mandarich was the worst pick in Packers history — you politely correct that knucklehead. #Packers #PackerNation #LetMeTellYouSomething #BigSalFromPeshtigo #SalStoryTime #PackernetPodcast #GoPackGo #NFLDraftHistory #TrueCrime #IFiveKiller #LambeauField #PackersHistory This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

🚨 BIG SAL IS LOSING HIS MIND 🚨 Sal pulled up the free agent board with his morning coffee and nearly spit a bagel across the kitchen — Joey Bosa is STILL unsigned in May, and Brian Gutekunst hasn't picked up the phone. With Micah Parsons rehabbing an ACL and Jonathan Gannon's rotational pass rush built on fresh bodies, how is the most available veteran edge rusher in football not in green and gold yet? 🔥 What Sal Hammers In This Rant: The numbers Buffalo got for $12.6M last year — 5 forced fumbles (NFL leader), PFF's 7th-best pass-rush grade (88.7), 15 of 17 games played The generator-in-the-shed metaphor for trusting ONE elite pass rusher in a Super Bowl window The ice-fishing breakdown of why veterans matter in Gannon's scheme over Van Ness, Sorrell, and rookie Dani Dennis-Sutton The wild family connection that proves this signing is FATE (hint: a former Packer is in the Bosa bloodline) 🏈 Bottom Line: $8-9M on a one-year prove-it deal is the cheapest insurance policy in the NFC North arms race.

The Green Bay Packers exercised the fifth year option on Lucas Van Ness — and somehow ESPN thinks that's the dumbest move of the offseason. Ryan breaks down the tape, the cap math, and the logic (or lack thereof) behind the wave of criticism coming from multiple ESPN Milwaukee and Madison personalities who seem convinced the Packers just made a catastrophic mistake. The $14 million myth: Ryan methodically dismantles the idea that Van Ness' fifth year option is some massive, reckless investment — when the top pass rusher in the NFL is making $50 million a year, this is literally bottom-third money for a legitimate contributor The sack obsession: ESPN's analysts lean entirely on Van Ness' three sack total while ignoring his 15% pressure rate, 76 PFF overall grade, and the fact he played only 300 snaps — Ryan does the math they refused to do The Rashawn Gary false equivalence: One ESPN host tries to draw a parallel between Gary's contract situation and Van Ness' option — Ryan explains why that comparison falls apart completely when you look at actual dollar figures adjusted for the salary cap The "stuck with him" problem: Multiple analysts framed the decision as the Packers being "stuck" with Van Ness — Ryan makes the case that losing him would be far more damaging than any cap concerns at this price point What's actually coming next: Why this fifth year option is just the setup for a contract extension that will make more sense structurally, and why Gutekunst was always going to do this Subscribe, leave a review, and join the conversation — and catch Packernet After Dark tonight for the call-in reaction! #Packers #LucasVanNess #GoPackGo #NFLAnalysis #GreenBayPackers #PackNation #NFLSalaryCap This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Pack Nation, we tried to stay on the rails. We really did. But when Uncle Rico calls three times in one night and Bear Mace Plus has a flashbang mode, all bets are off. Packernet After Dark went full chaos tonight, and honestly? Wouldn't have it any other way. Sports Illustrated & the Van Ness Fifth Year Option — Ryan fires back at the haters dunking on the Lukas Van Ness fifth-year option, breaking down why it's smart business at a premium position and why the so-called "experts" don't know what they're talking about UDFA Wave Two & Roster Depth — Drew from Green Bay and Ryan dig into whether signing anyone in the second UDFA wave actually makes sense right now, or if waiting for mid-season need is the smarter play Gutekunst Radio Interview Breakdown — Batman calls in from his coffee truck outside a BTS concert (only on this show) with key takeaways from Gutey's Sirius XM interview: Smack is in, McManus is out, and Sean Ryan is your starting center Uncle Rico's Skydiving Saga, AI Paranoia, and Salary Cap Truthers — Nico goes deep on internet salary cap hysteria, Uncle Rico nearly loses his cookies at 5,000 feet, and the gang debates whether anyone actually trusts anything online anymore Tundra FM Update — Ryan shares that the AI music videos are crushing it on YouTube (one approaching 17K views!) and teases future genre-themed episodes including more Rammstein Call in and join the madness — new callers go directly to the front of the line! 📞 608-501-0718 #PackernetAfterDark #GreenBayPackers #GoPackGo #LukasVanNess #JagerBurton #NFLOffseason #PackNation #TundraFM #PackDaddy This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Brick Lombardi cracks open the vault. Four tracks. Four moods. One very bad night for a Bears fan in Naperville, Illinois. The episode opens on the dance floor with GO PACK GO — an electro-pop, crunk-influenced banger built for the club and dedicated to the women who bleed green and gold. Standards are green and gold. If you don't know that, Brick does. From there, the energy shifts hard into PRESSURE — a cinematic, Queen-interpolated meditation on pass protection collapse and the particular dread of watching Jordan Love disappear into a rush. Heavy. Restrained. Honest. SUPERSTITIOUS brings the groove — a Stevie Wonder-influenced funk anthem for every Packer fan who's never spoken their ritual out loud. Same chair. Same hoodie. Same socks. The commentator jinx as a theological crisis. You know the system. You never talk about the system. Brick talks about the system. The episode closes with LET 'EM CRY — a Southern rock ballad. Organ, acoustic guitar, and a Bears fan alone at a bar in Naperville. Fourth and one. Caleb threw it low. Keisean Nixon took it from there. The song sounds like sympathy. It is not sympathy.

Big Sal from Peshtigo is in the recliner, meatball sandwich in hand, and he is FIRED UP. ESPN Milwaukee and ESPN Madison — the hometown guys, the cheese curd crowd — are calling the Lukas Van Ness fifth-year option a bust move. Thirteen point eight million dollars guaranteed, and they're calling it stupid. Sal is here to tell them exactly how wrong they are, receipts in hand, like a man returning a busted toaster oven. Van Ness posted 23 pressures in a half season on a busted foot — a career high — and ten pressures in his final three games. That's not a bust. That's Hercules warming up. The market context is damning for the critics: Kingsley Enagbare just got TEN million for ONE year from the Jets. Van Ness at thirteen point eight for two years is a bargain by comparison. With Rashan Gary traded to Dallas, Kingsley gone, and Micah Parsons rehabbing a torn ACL, the Packers needed Van Ness. The runway is finally clear — and Gutey made sure it wasn't empty.

What started as a quick take on Lucas Van Ness's fifth year option turned into a full-on intervention for Packer fans who've convinced themselves that nobody on this roster is worth paying. Buckle up. The Rasini Rabbit Hole: Ryan goes deep on the conspiracy theory nobody is saying out loud — could The Athletic's investigation into inappropriate reporter-source relationships be connected to a sudden wave of high-profile NFL executives "stepping away to pursue other passions"? He wants credit if it turns out to be true. Lucas Van Ness Is a No-Brainer: The fifth year option is a bargain. Van Ness is slotting in as roughly the 40th-highest-paid pass rusher in the league. Letting him walk means handing the edge rotation to Baron Sorrell and a prayer. Ryan breaks down exactly why this isn't a debate. Salary Cap School Is In Session: Ryan pulls out his salary cap calculator at packergames.com and walks through why fans are consistently overestimating what these contracts actually cost. Aaron Rodgers' $33M deal in 2018 would be worth $61M today — and we panicked then too. Stop Playing the "He's Not Worth It" Game: From Jaden Reed to Christian Watson to Wyatt to Tucker Craft — Ryan argues that Packer fans systematically undervalue their own players and then have no plan for what to do with the savings. Gutey himself said "absolutely" when asked if they can still afford Watson. Call in and tell Ryan something crazy to do — 608-501-0718. New callers go to the front of the line.

Pack Daddy is stir crazy, the callers are locked in, and somehow the whole thing turns into one of the most unexpectedly insightful nights in After Dark history. Ryan opens with a restless energy he can't shake — bungee jumping, road trips to Maine, a pint of ice cream — but the calls keep coming and so does the football. Daniel from California breaks down exactly how the Packers' 2025 draft class is schemed to attack the NFC's biggest hurdles — Brandon C'Sae as the answer to the Rams' edge-run game and McClellan as the interior pressure weapon Caleb Williams genuinely cannot handle TJ from Alabama veers into a late-night riff on "my truth," personal responsibility, and the libertarian Gen X worldview that apparently nobody under 30 remembers anymore Uncle Rico delivers his definitive NFL loyalty doctrine across multiple legendary call-ins: every player is garbage unless they're a Packer, and the moment they leave, that's it — they're garbage again Garrett from Southern Illinois calls in with high praise for the Sal experiment, and Ryan goes full manifesto mode on AI — where it's headed, why the eBay analogy is terrifying, and why Jensen Huang is basically right about everything Ryan teases a conspiracy theory for tomorrow's episode tied to the media integrity questions raised by recent off-field drama, and promises to explain why he ever brought it up in the first place Call in live at 608-501-0718 — new callers go straight to the front of the line.

Pack Nation, pour something warm and dim the lights — Brick Lombardi is opening the vault. Thirty years in radio, half of them cold, all of them worth it, and tonight Tundra FM is digging into four tracks that lived inside the seasons and knew something before the rest of us did. This is what happens when Packers football gets set to music. 🧱 Iron Wall — A defensive anthem for a unit that doesn't negotiate, doesn't bend, and doesn't care what you ran in practice. Steel and flesh on the frozen tundra. 🩸 Victory Bleeds — A direct shot at the Doom posters who watched Jordan Love go 19-of-26 for 259 yards, watched Josh Jacobs run through people, watched the Packers move to 3-0 since Love came back, and still spent 16 hours typing about the spread. Bank the win. Fix the rest. 🖤 Sunday Night in Pittsburgh — The Aaron Rodgers song. The conversation that never got finished. Loving the legacy and still needing to beat him — both living in the same chest. 💙 Green Bay Blues — The 13-10 loss in Cleveland. No dramatic ending. Just the quiet drive home in the cold, that particular hurt that doesn't have a name, and believing anyway. Four songs. Four different ways this team gets inside you and stays there.

Pack Nation, Big Sal from Peshtigo is FIRED UP — and for once, it's not because Brian Gutekunst did something dumb. It's because the man might've actually done something SMART. Sal cracks open the Jayden Reed extension, sees the sneaky cap-flat structure, and connects the dots to what's REALLY coming next: Christian Watson and Tucker Kraft. 🔥 Why the Reed contract is a "tackle box" — looks big, but the real money is up front 💰 The cap runway Gutey is quietly building for Watson AND Kraft extensions ⚠️ Why you PAY Tucker Kraft right now, torn ACL or not, before the price explodes Is Sal really about to apologize to the GM?

Brick Lombardi is back behind the mic and tonight Tundra FM went four deep — four songs, four genres, zero apologies. We opened with "Green Voltage," a German industrial metal anthem about that Pittsburgh comeback nobody saw coming. Down 16-7 on national TV and the Packers ripped the script apart. Then we honored the legend himself — Clay Matthews gets the tribute he deserves with "The Predator," because number 52 earned every note. "Pack Attack" welcomes Micah Parsons to Green Bay with bars aimed straight at Jerry Jones and that Sunday night Dallas showdown — no tribute video needed "Always Meant to Be" is a tech-house meditation on Gute's quiet six-pick draft: McClellan, Sutton, Burton, Jackson, and Trey Smack booting 50-yarders like it's nothing From Rammstein energy to dance floor vibes, Brick proves there's no genre Packers music can't conquer First episode available on both the podcast feed and YouTube — the door's open wider now Whether you've been riding with Tundra FM since day one or this is your first time hearing Brick spit, buckle up.

Big Sal did not sleep last night. He was up until two in the morning reading draft grades, pacing the living room in his socks, and now he has something to say about it. Sports Illustrated gave the Green Bay Packers a D for their 2026 draft class, and Sal is here to burn that grade to the ground — pick by pick, stat by stat, slippers and all. Sal makes the case for Brandon Cisse as a Day 2 steal: a twenty-year-old corner who ran a 4.41 and allowed just eighteen catches in coverage at South Carolina — and why calling him "raw" misses the entire point of developmental drafting The picks SI barely mentioned: Chris McClellan's eleven-inch hands and scheme-perfect fit, Dani Dennis-Sutton's 9.96 RAS and fourth-round robbery, Jager Burton's zero sacks allowed and 4.94 forty at 312 pounds Why drafting Trey Smack is not a punchline — it is a direct response to Brandon McManus leaving seven points on the field in a four-point playoff loss Big Sal said what he said. Now it's your turn — subscribe, leave a five-star review, and tell the guy at the gas station who thinks the Bears had a better draft. #Packers #GreenBay #NFLDraft #PackNation #PackersDraft #LetMeTellYouSomething #BigSal #NFL #DraftGrades #PackDaddy This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Ryan dives headfirst into two stories dominating the NFL news cycle — one that keeps getting more shocking by the day, and one that's completely manufactured nonsense. First up, the Diana Rossini-Mike Vrabel situation has escalated far beyond hotel photos. Ryan walks through the full timeline of new evidence, including a Spotify playlist discovery that connects some very uncomfortable dots, dating back years before the public ever caught wind of anything. The full Rossini-Vrabel timeline: from 2015 GM affair allegations to the latest Spotify playlist bombshell, deleted accounts, and social media sleuthing that points to something far deeper than anyone initially assumed Conception window analysis that has the internet calling for paternity tests on both of Rossini's children The Micah Parsons "controversy" that isn't one — Ryan plays the full unedited clip and exposes how every major account clipped the same dishonest snippet to manufacture outrage A passionate rant on the softening of NFL culture, fake outrage, and what happens when fans care more about feelings than football Don't be a stranger — subscribe, leave a review, and join the conversation. #Packers #GreenBayPackers #NFL #PackersNews #MicahParsons #DianaRossini #MikeVrabel #NFLDraft #PackNation #GoPackGo This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

The draft dust has settled and Pack Nation is calling in HOT. Tonight's After Dark crew breaks down every Packers pick from the quality-over-quantity approach to the late-round gambles, and the consensus is clear — this might be Gute's best draft yet. Plus, the callers are already handing out nicknames and cooking up Lambeau traditions for the new guys. Beer Cheese Benny kicks things off with love for the Jager Burton pick and his zero-sack streak at Kentucky, while Batman delivers a scorching take on the Bears' disastrous draft and Caleb Williams' regression risk behind a potentially crumbling offensive line Daniel from California breaks down the upside of Brandon C'Sae's Stephon Gilmore mentorship, McClellan's unmovable run defense, and why Deny Dennis Sutton's athleticism and production make his draft fall inexplicable Uncle Rico solves the pronunciation problem once and for all — DDS is now officially "The Dentist" — while Aaron pitches the "What Does the C'Sae?" wave as Lambeau's next great defensive tradition TJ from Alabama co-signs the consensus board rant, delivers a public service announcement about the dangers of mispronouncing "jag off," and the crew debates whether street free agents still make sense with a full 91-man roster Call in and join the conversation: 608-501-0718. New callers go straight to the front of the line. #Packers #PackersNation #NFLDraft #GreenBay #PackernetAfterDark #GoPackGo #GoSmackGo #TheDentist #PackNation #NFL This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!
