Two Centers Down, a Short Week, and Carolina

It's Tuesday on Tundra FM, and Brick Lombardi is keeping his theories to himself. Tonight's stack is about the kind of love that never announces itself. It shows up as boots by the door and a phone that rings twice. We go back to July for Thirty-Three Cold, a slow-burn rock song about a safety who treats every ball in the air like a gift. Super Fan is bluesy country-rock from the late-night caller who is never wrong, because he says both. Last Pair of Boots is a country-folk song for the man who kept the jerseys ready for forty-nine winters and never wanted his name read out. Stay to the end for the debut of Three Dots, a bright pop song about the family group chat on game day, and the grandfather who never texts. If a song stuck with you, subscribe to Tundra FM, leave a rating and a review, and help more Packers fans find the show. Go Pack Go.

What happens to an offense when its center goes down and his backup goes down on the same drive? The Packers are about to find out on a short week against Carolina. Cal breaks down Jacob Monk heading to injured reserve, the feared high-ankle sprain for Sean Rhyan, and the practice squad signing of veteran Mekhi Becton Sr. He also looks at John Williams, a seventh-round pick preparing for his first start. Then it's on to Zaire Franklin's leg injury, Xavier McKinney's criticism of the officiating after the twenty to seventeen loss, and why LaFleur is standing behind kicker Trey Smack. Cal also runs through the Monday injury reports for both teams and explains what a center actually does. Stick around for a feel-good story about three Packers teaching kids at a football camp in De Pere.

The Monday after Detroit stings. Twenty to seventeen, a twenty-two-yard kick as time expired, and the Packers sit at four and three with ten games left.

The Lions beat the Packers 20-17 on a Jake Bates field goal as time expired, and Cal Hutson is still staring at a cold cup of coffee. He walks through how it slipped away: a late offside penalty on third down, eight Packers penalties, two missed field goals, and just seven points on four red zone trips. Then the good news. Josh Jacobs made his season debut with a 25-yard touchdown. Isaiah McDuffie forced one fumble and recovered another filling in for Zaire Franklin. Keisean Nixon made a huge fourth-down stop, and rookie Brandon Cisse kept making plays. Cal also covers the injuries to both centers, Sean Rhyan and Jacob Monk, the odd NFC North standings, and why a Thursday night game against Carolina is exactly what this team needs.

It's game day in Detroit, and Big Sal is fuming. Captain Zaire Franklin is out after a practice collision, which ends a 48-game streak, and Edgerrin Cooper is already on IR. That leaves Isaiah McDuffie and Ty'Ron Hopper to deal with Jahmyr Gibbs. Sal has the answer, and he found it in his own hallway: his daughter Gigi's inflatable peacock Halloween costume, which could not fit through the bedroom door no matter what anybody tried. Then the good news: Jordan Love, Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, Lukas Van Ness and Brandon Cisse are off the injury report, and Josh Jacobs is expected to debut. Sal also walks through his game-day rituals with the upside-down trophy jacket and the chair nobody moves, and gives his keys to the game, his respect for a good Lions team, and his final call. Hit subscribe, leave a five-star review, and share this one with whoever will be pacing the hallway with you at 3:24. Go Pack Go.

It's game day. The Packers play the Lions at Ford Field at 3:25 Central on FOX, and Cal Hutson has the final injury report. Captain Zaire Franklin is out with a shin injury, ending a 48-game streak, with Edgerrin Cooper already on IR. That means Isaiah McDuffie and Ty'Ron Hopper get the call against Jahmyr Gibbs. The good news: Jordan Love is off the injury report, along with Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, Lukas Van Ness and rookie Brandon Cisse. Aaron Banks, Bo Melton, Benjamin St-Juste and Jordon Riley are questionable, and Josh Jacobs is expected to make his season debut. Detroit is rested, healthy and bringing everybody. Cal breaks down four keys to the game, Love's numbers at Ford Field and Watson's history against Detroit, and the character test that is a 3:25 kickoff. He also tips his cap to Jeff Kahlow, the Frozen Tundra Man from Fond du Lac. Kahlow is in his 24th season of hot-gluing icicles to his face for Packers games, and he has carved more than 29,000 foam hats at Big Guy Hats, including a goat hat for Simone Biles. Then Cal makes his pick. Subscribe to the Packernet Podcast and leave a review so more fans can find the show.
