Frozen Tundra Frequencies - Talking Green Bay Packers 24/7/1265

In a special edition of The Repack, Tex Western breaks down the Green Bay Packers' recently-revealed schedule for the 2026 season. And it's actually...good?! With 9 home games and no international trips, this was already setting up to be a decent year on the schedule front, but Tex breaks down why it's even better than expected. There's a lot of weirdness with short and long weeks, however, and the Packers don't get a true full bye week as a result of playing on Wednesday night before Thanksgiving. Still, they will play 5 different games on at least 9 days' rest, which is pretty crazy.Tune in for the initial reactions to the schedule, discussions on why certain games ended up in prime time, and much more! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Green Bay Packers made just six picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, but they were fun ones and Draft Talk is back for one final episode this spring to break it down. Tyler Brooke and Justis Mosqueda look at the picks that Brian Gutekunst made and how they will help the Packers in 2026 and beyond. And of course, there is discussion about the Packers' undrafted free agent class as well as a look at which other NFL teams had the best collection of picks over the weekend.Until next year, thanks for listening to Draft Talk over the last few months! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The 2026 NFL Draft has concluded, and the Green Bay Packers made six selections this weekend. Tex Western and Justis Mosqueda break them all down to talk about a class that simply pops off the page with every name you read. Day 3 got underway with our favorite EDGE prospect falling to Green Bay at 120 and the fun just continued from there, culminating in a trade up for a kicker who's going to Smack a certain incumbent right off the roster. There was value and quality at every pick, and the team added a handful of very fun and interesting undrafted free agents this evening to boot. The guys go through every new name coming to Green Bay as we look at the entire draft and UDFA class in detail.Thanks to everyone for listening all weekend long, and Go Pack Go! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Green Bay Packers finally got to make some picks on Day 2 of the 2026 NFL Draft! In tonight's Repack, Tex Western and Tyler Brooke break down the selections of Brandon Cisse and Chris McClellan in rounds 2 and 3. Cisse is the obviously exciting pick as a young, athletic cornerback, but McClellan brings some interesting versatility to the table as a defensive lineman who can play all over (including on the nose). The guys also take a look ahead to day 3 and what to expect (which may include the Packers trading up early on Saturday). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The first day of the 2026 NFL Draft has come and gone, and Green Bay Packers fans should feel just fine about it. Only one or two remotely feasible Packers picks have come off the board, with the team not selecting until #52 on Friday, and there were a few head-scratching selections in the first round that may well help a couple of exciting players drop a little bit farther on day two. Evan "Tex" Western and Paul Noonan break down night one, looking at a first round that was largely chalk picks but in an unexpected order, especially at the top, while keeping an eye ahead on the best players remaining when the Draft resumes on Friday night. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

NFL Draft week is here! That means it's time for one last episode of Draft Talk to wrap everything up ahead of the start of the 2026 NFL Draft on Thursday night. Tyler Brooke and Justis Mosqueda welcome a special guest, Rcon, into the show for one last look at the class as a whole with a particular eye on the Green Bay Packers' fits. Rcon discusses a Big Board of players who fit the Packers' historical draft trends and the trio work through a full 7-round mock draft of Packers' picks to see how the board might fall for Brian Gutekunst and company. Check out the video version of this podcast on Youtube on the Best Available channel, and keep an eye in the FTF feed for NFL Draft coverage all weekend from The Repack! Hosted on Acast.

On this draft special Reporting as Eligible, Paul and JR touch base with Tyler Brooke to explore who's going to be good, who isn't, and most importantly, who will be a Packer. And as always, listener questions! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's the penultimate Draft Talk episode of 2026! The 2026 NFL Draft is just nine days away, so it's time for Tyler Brooke and Justis Mosqueda to break down some of their favorite prospects in this year's class. This has nothing to do with team fits, positional needs, rankings, or anything else -- it's just the most fun players headed to the NFL this year. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As the draft gets ever closer, Justis and Tyler take some time to address your questions about top prospects, hidden gems, and the Packers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The edge rusher group in the 2026 NFL Draft class is an interesting batch of players, and it's finally time to break down this position on Draft Talk. Tyler Brooke and Justis Mosqueda finally hit this position in week 7 of this year's series with a look at who the Green Bay Packers might be interested in and much more analysis on this intriguing group. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Draft Talk, it's time to break down the running backs in the 2026 NFL Draft class! Tyler Brooke and Justis Mosqueda are back again to break down this class, which has one elite prospect in Jeremiyah Love. After him, well, it gets interesting, with a pretty big drop off to later tiers, but there are still some fun players who could interest the Packers later on if they are looking for depth at the position.Don't forget to also check out the video version of the show at https://www.youtube.com/@BestAvailableYT Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Green Bay Packers could still use some help at defensive tackle this offseason, even after signing Javon Hargrave, and there are some fun prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft class at that position. Tyler Brooke and Justis Mosqueda break down several of the top options, giving their rankings and trying to figure out who is a good fit for Green Bay. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Draft Talk returns! On this episode, Tyler Brooke and Justis Mosqueda discuss the linebackers in the 2026 NFL Draft class. It's not a great group this year, with a pretty significant dropoff after the top few players, so if you need a linebacker, you had sure better hope that you have an early pick or you already got one during this week's free agency chaos, which remains in full swing. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Free Agency may not officially begin until Wednesday afternoon, but teams are making moves and agreeing to deals with players all across the NFL. Trades are happening (or not), and Jerry Jones had better not go back on his agreement to acquire Rashan Gary from the Packers -- or so say Tex, Tyler, and Justis. The trio are back together to break down all of the craziness of the last few days, including the Packers' cuts, acquisitions, and all of the compensatory draft picks heading to Green Bay. Get up to speed on where everything stands as of Tuesday night here before the 2026 NFL league year officially begins on Wednesday! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 3 of Draft Talk 2026 is here! It's time to look at the offensive linemen, or as Tyler Brooke is calling them this year, the "Hoggies" (thanks, Fernando Mendoza!). Tyler and Justis Mosqueda break down the linemen in the 2026 NFL Draft. Will the Packers invest on the interior of their line this year? Who should fans look out for in the middle rounds? And why are participation rates declining so strongly at the Scouting Combine?Find the answers to those questions and more in this week's episode! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 2 of Draft Talk 2026 is here, with Tyler and Justis breaking down the cornerback position in the 2026 NFL Draft. Which prospects could be good fits for the Packers, particularly on day two of the draft? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Incredibly, the 5th year of the Draft Talk series is here! Tyler Brooke and Justis Mosqueda will get you ready for the 2026 NFL Draft over the next several weeks with a focus on the Green Bay Packers. This year's first installment kicks off with an overall look at the 2026 class, some quarterback talk, and a look back at some fun times over the last several years of coverage. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On a Super Preview of the Big Game and some new coaches, Paul and JR discuss the future of the Packer coaching staff, Jim Leonhard, Seattle's defense, Browns Pro Bowlers, and the Patriot's truly lucky schedule. And as always, listener questions. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this episode of The Repack from Frozen Tundra Frequencies, Tex is joined by Jeff Warren of The Philadelphia Sports Table podcast to talk about all things Jonathan Gannon. Who is the Packers' new defensive coordinator, what does he bring in terms of scheme, and how did Eagles fans feel about his performance calling plays for their team's defense in 2021 and 2022? Jeff breaks it all down, plus gives a little bit of insight into Philly's OC search, which now includes a second interview for Packers QBs coach Sean Mannion.Check out Jeff's work at the Philadelphia Sports Table podcasts in your preferred podcast feed or at www.philadelphiasportstable.com. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

There are still plenty of moves to be made around the NFL, but the Green Bay Packers have decided on a few big things in recent weeks, starting with retaining Matt LaFleur as head coach and hiring Jonathan Gannon to replace the departing Jeff Hafley at defensive coordinator. Tex Western and guest Justis Mosqueda break down why LaFleur staying made sense, what kind of scheme Gannon will likely bring to Green Bay, and how the team needs to supplement their personnel to fit their new defense. More changes are coming on the coaching staff as well and they look at how the team might replace some other departing (or potentially departing) assistant coaches.We at FTF condemn the violent and unlawful actions of ICE and CBP, and we believe that the deaths of Renee Good, Alex Pretti, and others are reprehensible. We stand with the communities in the Twin Cities and around the USA that have been impacted by these agencies.

Zach, Alex, and Nick gather to take one last look at the 2025 Green Bay Packers season, talk the Matt LaFleur extension, and where the team goes from here. We also settle up with our bookie and tally our season-long prop bets. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Paul discusses which unites are the best and worst in the North, drama on the beat, the Bears moving, the Bears playing, and the last few questions. Also, the song is called "Matt of Flower." Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Paul is back to finish off the questions, and reminds everyone to cash out. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On a brand new Reporting as Eligible, Paul, JR, and Matt wrap up a terrible playoff loss to the worst possible team to lose to, what went wrong, and what can be better in the future. Maybe get a kicker that isn't terrible, or some guys who can tackle on special teams, or maybe don't play hurt Jacobs. Plus, how to fix the second half pacing issues, praise for Matthew Golden from MOST of us, and of course, listener questions!Thanks again for all the listener questions! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Green Bay Packers' season is over, and it happened in the most predictable and yet still most painful way possible. Tex, Tyler, and (eventually) Justis discuss the 31-27 loss to the Bears, what's ahead for Matt LaFleur and the coaching staff, and take a journey from calm acceptance into anger and frustration. Where does this game rank in the annals of painful playoff losses? Will LaFleur indeed be back in 2026? Why is Brandon McManus allowed to board the plane back to Green Bay instead of being forced to walk home? All of these questions and more will be answered (except for the last one). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Alex, Zach, and Nick gather to get pumped up for the Packers' upcoming playoff game against the Chicago Bears and pick apart some of the discourse we've heard over the course of the week, including:-Some say Caleb Williams has already surpassed Jordan Love-Some say Jordan Love lacks the clutch gene. Do we say those things? No, but some do! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On a new Reporting as Eligible, Matt, JR, and Paul discuss Stephen King mostly off mic before turning to the game, and what if anything we can learn. They then move on to the Bears, and what we can expect in the third and final meeting between the two. Plus, do the Packers cheap out on coaches? Do they realize Gary is cooked? And is Diggs going to save the secondary? And of course, listener questions! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Did you know that the Green Bay Packers didn't actually play in Week 18? Weird, huh? Good thing there's a playoff game coming up sometime next weekend! Tex Western and guest Tyler Brooke break down the impending playoff matchup with the Chicago Bears and definitely don't talk about a game between the "Green Bay Packers" and the Minnesota Vikings. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Nick, Alex, and Zach try to make sense of what is sure to be rag tag roster as the Packers play a meaningless season finale against the Minnesota Vikings. Are the Packers right to rest Jordan Love? Will he be rusty in the playoffs? What will these team even look like once the playoffs arive? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Paul and Rcon tackle the defensive performance, which involved very little tackling. The Packers will make the playoffs and they will likely be facing the Bears. Are they doomed? Will everyone copy the Ravens' plan? Or is Derrick Henry really a unicorn that can't be replicated, and we should still have hope? Will getting healthier help, or can anything else be done? And as always, listener questions! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Zach, Alex, and Nick get on an international Christmas Eve conference call to get a post Bears loss vibe check and to talk about the state of the NFC playoff picture. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On a holiday episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul and JR discuss the debacle that was the Bears' game, and whether we should really worry much given how lucky the Packers were with the results on Sunday. Plus Malik Willis is awesome, Rashan Gary is not, and apparently you're sick of asking about Keisean but we're talking about him anyway. Plus, how to deal with uppity Bears fans, our playoffs prospects, and listener questions! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's been a while since we've seen that kind of a collapse from the Green Bay Packers. We've seen it before, but the way that the Packers fell apart late in their 22-16 loss to the Chicago Bears on Saturday night feels awfully familiar. Tex breaks down tonight's game solo in a fairly brief episode of The Repack from the road, focusing heavily on the Packers' ongoing red zone issues, Romeo Doubs' muffed onside kick recovery attempt, and Keisean Nixon giving up both of the Bears' late touchdowns. Matt LaFleur didn't really do anything wrong in this one and Green Bay still had this one despite all of their injuries -- including losing Jordan Love to a concussion early -- or at least they had it until they didn't. Also, apologies for the weird background audio - please ignore the ambient music in the hotel gym. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On an all new Reporting as Eligible, JR, Paul, and Special Guest/RAE question-asker extraordinaire Mark Podskarbi tackle the fallout from the Broncos game and immediately tear their ACLs in doing so. Have the guys calmed down? Is 2026 over too? Or does a lackluster field of competitive teams mean that hope is still alive, even this year? They also talk vacation destinations, middle names, meats, reasonable expectations, and of course, listener questions. (Also, you can check out Mark's pod here) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Well, the Green Bay Packers sure don't look like a Super Bowl contender any more after Micah Parsons is down to one intact ACL. The Packers lost Sunday's game in Denver 34-26, but they lost so much more when Parsons went down and added his name to the list of wounded on Green Bay's roster. Between Parsons, another bizarre Christian Watson injury, Zach Tom and Evan Williams getting banged up, and more, it was a brutal day for a Packers team that actually looked pretty good in the first half against the AFC's number one team.Tex and Justis break down why it's time to remove any more emotion from this team for the rest of this season, discuss how the college coaching carousel might affect Matt LaFleur, and talk through the issues facing this team in the offseason, because it's pretty rough to spend too much time talking about the game. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Nick and Alex discuss the Packers reclaiming the NFC North lead and anxiously await a game against the Broncos where Green Bay enters as road favorites. Potential Pain Scale + rising... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On a new Reporting as Eligible, Paul, JR, and Tyler revel in Bear misery...but not enough Bear misery for Paul's taste, as much of Chicago is stoked by this loss. The boys point out why you shouldn't be happy about getting torched by Christian Watson and famous cornerback Bo Melton, why Josh Jacobs may have saved the season, the trouble with the late run defense, Keisean Nixon roasts, and Tom Brady not being able to tell the truth because of a big ol conflict of interest. And also he's bad at his job. Both of his jobs.

The Green Bay Packers defeated the Chicago Bears 28-21 in Week 14, taking back possession of the lead in the NFC North with four weeks left in the season. Tex and Justis Mosqueda break down the game, with nods to Christian Watson and Josh Jacobs for big performances in a crucial divisional matchup. Also: Micah Parsons is still great, Caleb Williams still can't operate a normal drop-back passing game, and Kingsley Enagbare had a big day with a big stop. And what was Ben Johnson thinking calling that play on 4th down that led to Keisean Nixon's game-sealing pick? The world may never know. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Nick, Alex, and Zach reheat some Thanksgiving leftovers and talk about the ascending vibes surrounding the Packers after their turkey day defeat of the Detroit Lions. The guys then turn their attention to the (hopefully) out-over-their-skis Chicago Bears ahead of another division showdown. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On a new Reporting as Eligible, the guys discuss the Lions game, whether beating a compromised injury plagued team is really that good, and then they turn to the Bears where they cover whether beating the Eagles is really all that. There's McDuffie praise, talk of one-score games, DVOA, Ben Johnson and the roof-punching guy, Love as an MVP candidate, Jordan Morgan not playing, Devonte Wyatt, and of course, listener questions. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Green Bay Packers won on Thanksgiving for the third straight season, so Tex is breaking down their 31-24 victory over the Detroit Lions from Thursday. From Jordan Love getting another turkey leg to Dontayvion Wicks' career game to Micah Parsons doing Micah Parsons things, it was a fun game to watch, especially with Matt LaFleur calling an aggressive game. It's also time to really start looking at the playoff picture, especially with a big game against the Chicago Bears -- currently the NFC's number one seed, if you can believe it -- coming up next Sunday. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

So, with Jordan's shoulder all hurt and Emanuel Wilson going crazy on Minnesota, did Matt learn bad lessons? Or was this a just the smart plan against one of the worst quarterbacks of all time. And will the show be longer than the game was? Tune in and find out with Paul and Matt! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In tonight's episode of The Repack, Tex is joined by Tyler Brooke to discuss the Packers' oddly comfortable 23-6 win over the Minnesota Vikings. J.J. McCarthy was hilariously bad, Micah Parsons reached double-digit sacks, Emanuel Wilson hit the century mark, and Daniel Whelan continued his All-Pro campaign. Meanwhile, the Packers made a big change on the offensive line that looks like it might be a good move in the long term. All in all, it was the easiest, most relaxing Packers game in a while, so let's all enjoy discussing that before what's sure to be a crazy Thanksgiving Day game against the Lions. Go Pack Go! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Nick gives a boots-on-the-ground report after seeing the Packer beat the Giants at a gusty MetLife Stadium before we turn our attention toward the Vikings and JJ McCarthy. And prop bets. Also that. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On a new Reporting as Eligible, the guys report on how this game grew on them, how Jordan Love was secretly very good to the extent that it was debatably the best game of his career, how Malik Willis is a very good backup, and how everyone need to learn to catch, and also return punts. They guys also take on Rashan Gary, Stone Temple Pilots, sideline urination, hard playing surfaces, wind, and several other hot topics of the day, including listener questions! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's time for another episode of The Repack after the Green Bay Packers' 27-20 win over the New York Giants. Justis joins Tex to discuss the game, where they talk about the horrible case of the drops that hit this team, costing them a much more convincing victory. Between 6 or 7 drops on offense and four dropped interceptions on defense, this team needs to figure out the fundamentals, and that might just come down to going cheap on the coaching staff. Also, Christian Watson was awesome (aside from his one drop), Daniel Whelan should be an All-Pro, and Savion Williams may have saved the Packers' season. But Emanuel Wilson? Let's not heap praise on someone who is just another guy. Still, it's a win, and there are some positive things to build on in the passing game, even if the run game didn't live up to expectations against a terrible run defense. Go Pack Go! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Paul had some bourbon and his voice was giving out. But he made it! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Zach, Alex, and Nick gather for a cathartic complain-a-thon including haikus, screeds, and soap boxes. Can LaFleur get his Packers cleaned up and ready to beat the New York Giants? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On a post-loss, record-setting Reporting as Eligible, the guys discuss the future of Matt LaFleur, what the Packers should have done, kicking, injuries, how Jordan messed up fourth down, procedure penalties, Jeff Hafley's defense, and just a ton of listener questions. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Has the NFL already passed Matt LaFleur by? On this week's episode of the Repack, Tex is joined by Paul Noonan and, later, Justis Mosqueda to discuss an abysmal offensive performance by the Green Bay Packers in their 10-7 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Why won't LaFleur adjust his offensive philosophy? Does he even understand when his unit is actually efficient? And why in the hell does this team insist on keeping two kickers on the roster but playing the one who's hurt? It's a bad sign when your season evokes memories of the 2015 and 2018 Mike McCarthy teams, but here we are. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Zach and Nick are joined by special guest Justis Mosqueda to try to find something—anything—positive to say after a disastrous week for the Green Bay Packers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
