Why the Packers Must Sit Their Starters

The Vikings are coming to Lambeau, and we're going deep on every aspect of this Minnesota roster heading into Week 18. First, congratulations to Jordan Love and Ronica on their baby girl announcement—now there's some extra motivation for the postseason push. We break down the JJ McCarthy puzzle: a quarterback who exploded against Washington and Dallas only to post his worst game of the season against the Giants. Is the mental shift Kevin O'Connell talked about real, or were those performances just bad defenses making a young quarterback look good? The concerning answer might be both. Justin Jefferson's numbers tell a troubling story—his 78 receiving grade marks a significant drop from his career 90-grade baseline, and the chemistry issues with McCarthy have created drop problems across the entire receiving corps. We examine why Jordan Addison's 14.6% drop rate and the overall offensive dysfunction could work in Green Bay's favor. On defense, Minnesota's aging unit features 30-plus-year-old players at nearly every position, but coordinator Brian Flores has them playing their best football at the worst possible time—for them. We grade every position group from Jonathan Allen's declining production to Harrison Smith's painful 37-year-old decline, plus the emerging threats like Dallas Turner and Isaiah Rogers that could cause problems.

Packers Total Access : 😡 Micah Parsons BLASTS Jerry Jones & Cowboys Over Disrespect to Him and Trevon Diggs! + Malik Willis Market Value

Why the Packers Must Sit Their Starters

Packers Total Access : 🚨 Matt LaFleur's Update on Trevon Diggs Packers vs Vikings Matchup!

Packers Total Access : Everything You Need To Know About Trevon Diggs + Jordan Love & Malik Willis Injury Updates!

The Packers claimed Trayvon Diggs off waivers, and while there's no rational reason to expect him to save the season, maybe it's time to embrace the irrational. We break down the salary cap implications, the circumstances of his Cowboys departure, and why the "we need bodies" argument might be the only one worth making. Beyond Diggs, we dive into all 14 roster moves, including intriguing practice squad addition Damien Martinez—a physical downhill runner with elite college production—plus the return of Desmond Ritter as QB4 depth. We also examine the first injury report of the week, where Jordan Love appears as a full participant and an illness continues spreading through the locker room. The real surprise comes from DVOA trajectory analysis comparing this Packers team to historical squads with similar seasonal paths. The results? Three of the four most comparable teams won the Super Bowl, including the 2008 Steelers, 2022 Chiefs, and 2010 Packers. Sometimes mediocre teams get lucky—why not us?

The phones are ringing off the hook as Packer Nation processes another gut-wrenching loss and a three-game losing streak heading into the playoffs. Tonight's callers aren't holding back their frustrations, and the Rashaan Gary discourse has reached a boiling point. The big news drops mid-show as Trevon Diggs reportedly signs with Green Bay, sparking debate about whether the former Cowboys corner can resurrect his career in the same system that transformed Rasul Douglas. Callers also bid farewell to Malik Willis, with one suggesting Pittsburgh as his ideal landing spot to continue what Green Bay started. But the main event tonight is the avalanche of Rashaan Gary criticism. Multiple callers draw comparisons to Nick Perry, question his leadership abilities, and debate whether his contract is salvageable. The frustration extends to offensive linemen Banks and Rasheed Walker for drive-killing penalties, and some are even calling for Matt LaFleur's job. One caller sums up the mood perfectly: this team is broken. Despite the doom and gloom, we're still in the playoffs, and as the host reminds everyone, you don't have to be the better team, you just have to win. Rest up, get healthy, and anything can happen in January football. This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Packers Total Access : 🔴 Fixing the Green Bay Packers in 2026! What Has to Change? + Packers Sign Another QB + More Bad News

Has any team ever lost four straight games and still made a Super Bowl run? With the Packers currently spiraling, we're diving deep into the historical data to find out exactly what we're dealing with. In this episode, we break down every team since 1999 that limped into the playoffs on a losing streak—from the 1999 Lions to the 2024 Steelers—and track their EPA and DVOA trends against where Green Bay sits right now. The results? Surprisingly hopeful. While most comparable teams went one-and-done, the Packers' final DVOA of 13.1 is actually HIGHER than all of them, and their regression pattern eerily mirrors the 2010 Super Bowl champions. We also shut down the Trevon Diggs fantasy with cold, hard PFF data—the Cowboys released him mid-week for a reason, and no, he's not better than what we have. Plus quick hits on Micah Parsons' successful ACL surgery and Zeke Elliott quietly filing retirement papers. The defense has tanked at minus-110 EPA per week while the offense holds steady. It's not impossible. It's just unlikely. And here's exactly how unlikely. This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Tonight's call-in show takes an unexpected emotional turn when Kyle from Madison shares the devastating news of his stepfather Doug's sudden passing—the man who made him the Packer fan he is today. Despite his loss, Kyle honored Doug by attending the game with family, delivering a powerful reminder of what football really means to this community. Callers unload on a defense that got absolutely bulldozed by the Ravens, with one fan describing the embarrassing performance from his all-22 vantage point. The Rashaan Gary discussion heats up as multiple callers question his future, noting that Micah Parsons never once gave him props all season—what did Parsons see that we didn't? Plus, Ryan shuts down the Travon Diggs hype train before it leaves the station, reminding everyone that waived players get cut for a reason. The conversation turns philosophical as we examine the "shiny object" fan mentality that always wants to fire someone, trade for someone, and believes everything we have is terrible while everything else is better.
