Evan Cohen of Unsportsmanlike on ESPN Radio joins Jason Wilde and Mark Tauscher on Wilde and Tausch to share his national perception of Jordan Love, Matt LaFleur, and the Green Bay Packers following the 39-22 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 1 of the NFL season.

On Potawatomi Sportsbook Football Monday, Greg Matzek and Gary Ellerson take a night to digest the Packers’ 39-22 loss to Minnesota and ask the uncomfortable question: why does this keep happening? Green Bay has now lost six straight games, with another commanding lead disappearing in the fourth quarter. Gary believes the repeated collapses are becoming a mental problem, while Greg wonders whether Week 1 simply continued the exact issues Matt LaFleur spent the entire offseason promising to fix. The guys also dive into the Packers’ biggest concern coming out of Minnesota: an offensive line Gary believes somehow looks worse than last season. They grade Jordan Love’s performance under relentless pressure, discuss Christian Watson’s emergence as a legitimate No. 1 receiver and explain why Josh Jacobs’ absence mattered more than expected. Jason Wilde joins the show to break down LaFleur’s controversial decision to take points off the board and why Green Bay’s inability to handle success and adversity continues to haunt them. Plus, Greg and Gary hand out their Week 1 report cards, give Matt LaFleur a failing grade, debate whether the defense was actually much better than the 39 points allowed suggest and look ahead to a suddenly important road matchup with the Jets.

Former Packers offensive linemen TJ Lang and Bryan Bulaga reunite to diagnose what’s missing from Green Bay’s offensive line after Jordan Love spent Week 1 under siege. The former teammates explain why their Packers lines played with an edge, where protecting the quarterback meant more than simply executing an assignment. Lang says opposing defenses knew there would be consequences for taking extra shots at Aaron Rodgers, and questions whether that attitude and emotional leadership exists on the current Packers line. Lang also wonders whether Green Bay’s current approach to avoiding retaliation is being coached, arguing that sometimes an offensive lineman needs to risk a penalty to show teammates and opponents that taking liberties with the quarterback won’t be tolerated. Bulaga recalls how their line responded when Ndamukong Suh took shots at Rodgers and explains why that mentality became part of the identity of those Packers teams. Finally, Lang delivers his message directly to the current group: the G on the helmet means something. Protect Jordan Love, take pride in your responsibility and rediscover the toughness that comes with playing offensive line for the Green Bay Packers. Bulaga agrees, calling that attitude a tradition passed down through generations of Packers linemen.

Jason Wilde joins Alex Strouf with the Packers just over a week away from their 2026 season opener in Minnesota.

Plus, Jason and Strouf evaluate Brian Gutekunst’s offseason, discuss the Packers’ uncertainty at running back following the Josh Jacobs situation, and look ahead to a season that could hinge on Jordan Love taking another step toward the NFL’s elite tier.

He also discusses the NFL’s approach to cases involving video evidence and why the league may proceed cautiously. Plus, Schefter weighs in on the Packers’ tight end moves, Tucker Kraft’s contract situation and what Aaron Donald’s return means for the Rams.
