Podcast appearances and mentions of matt lafleur

Matt Jones and Drew Franklin were amazed at the games from Wild Card Weekend. As a Bears fan, Matt walks through the biggest moments. What changes are we going to see from the Packers? Matt feels like this is the start of a long run for Chicago. The Panthers held their own and Matthew Stafford played like an MVP QB. Josh Allen led the Bills over the Jaguars. What do you see in the Jags future? The Eagles season came to an end as the 49ers continue to find ways to win. Matt wonders about AJ Brown's future and other issues with the Eagles. What are the best NFL coaching jobs available? Matt was shocked the Ravens moved on from John Harbaugh. Matt was disappointed by the Chargers performance against the Patriots. Matt lays out the upcoming schedule for the Divisional Round next weekend. Matt wraps up with the show heading to the Super Bowl! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Apologies to all of our Nico Echavarria fans, but this is the biggest Victory Monday episode to date. Andy is on cloud nine following an improbable comeback win for the Bears over the Packers in the Wild Card Round, leading to an extended Football Minute to kick off the show. He attempts to subdue his emotions to be respectful of the many angry Packers fans in his mentions, but Brendan quickly eggs him on into an outward celebration. PJ is called in to defend Jordan Love's actions (323 yards, 4 touchdowns, 0 interceptions) after the loss and Andy once again suggests that Malik Willis (injured hamstring) would have been a better option for Green Bay. All three commiserate over their historically-hapless franchises firing a coach as good as Matt LaFleur, but it seems like that's on the table for the Packers following this defeat. After displaying a chart showing the likelihood of PJ losing his job with a Packers win, Andy then transitions to golf and the biggest news of this NFL-centric weekend: Michael Block's new clothing deal. Brendan can't help but laugh at Blockie linking up with Malbon, giving the brand a roster of Champions Tour stars. Blockie was sure to star in a ridiculous announcement video posted on Saturday afternoon, leading to plenty of social media fun ahead of the Bears game. Andy and Brendan then recap the Jones Cup and LIV's Promotions Event after a light week of competitive golf. Richard T. Lee will be LIV's first Canadian golfer and Malbon athlete Anthony Kim held on to earn a spot back on the tour for 2026. To finish off this final week without the PGA Tour, Andy, Brendan, and PJ make their 2026 major picks and highlight some breakout and bounce-back players for the upcoming season. After a long, long wait, the Opening Drive finally begins on Thursday! Join us in Chicagoland for an SGS Live Show on Thursday, February 12! We'll be hanging out at SPACE in Evanston, Illinois for a night of Q&A, Champs Tour Minute, and plenty of Bears chatter.

On today’s episode, Jason recaps all the NFL Wild Card Weekend action, including: how a playoff flameout against the San Francisco 49ers could cost Nick Sirianni his job in Philadelphia, why you can't blame Justin Herbert for the Los Angeles Chargers' no-show in New England, whether firing head coach Matt LaFleur is really the right plan of action for the Green Bay Packers, and why you shouldn't be surprised that Josh Allen and Matthew Stafford came up big in the clutch. Later, J-Mac previews tonight's game between the Houston Texans and the Pittsburgh Steelers, and hits us with a quick lookahead to the NFL Divisional Round slate. #OddCouple Follow Jason on Twitter and Instagram.

A staunch Matt Lafleur defender hits the breaking point. After years of pushing back against emotional fan reactions and demands to fire the coach, the evidence from Saturday's playoff collapse against Chicago has become impossible to ignore. This episode examines what happens when analytical thinking meets undeniable reality. The discussion explores the psychological concept of "need for cognitive closure"—why fans rush to definitive answers—while acknowledging that sometimes the stopped clock is finally right. From Bill Huber's scathing Sports Illustrated piece to James Jones admitting "his seat just got real hot," the media consensus has shifted dramatically. Former players are calling out the team's lack of heart, effort, and basic football fundamentals in the biggest moments. The contrast with Ben Johnson's Bears—a team with inferior talent but superior belief—raises uncomfortable questions about culture, motivation, and what exactly is missing in Green Bay. With Ed Policy watching the meltdown from the Soldier Field press box, the "easy decision" has flipped: keeping Lafleur now requires more courage than letting him go.

Packers Total Access :

The Packers season ended in the most gut-wrenching way imaginable. After dominating the Bears in the first half and building what looked like an insurmountable lead, Green Bay collapsed in historic fashion, surrendering 25 points in the fourth quarter to lose their playoff game to their most hated rival. In this raw, emotional reaction, we break down everything that went wrong: the offensive line's complete meltdown with Rasheed Walker's disastrous performance, Brandon McManus missing seven points worth of kicks, and a defense that appeared to simply stop trying in the fourth quarter. We ask the hard questions about Matt LaFleur's future extension, Jeff Hafley's potential departure, and whether this team has a fundamental problem that goes beyond talent. This marks five consecutive losses to end the season, and not a single win since losing Micah Parsons and Zach Tom to injury. Looking ahead, we discuss what the offseason holds, including draft coverage, roster evaluations, and the painful work of figuring out what went so catastrophically wrong.

On a new FOX Football Saturday, Aaron Torres and Jason Martin open the show reacting LIVE to the end of the Bears vs. Packers Wildcard game, breaking down all of the action as it unfolds in real time, including the Bears' full comeback to victory. Could this collapse cost Matt LaFleur his job? They also discuss the Rams' surprisingly narrow victory over the Panthers, discussing what it means for their outlook going forward in the postseason... Are they really as good as we thought? The guys then set the stage for the rest of Wildcard Weekend, previewing the games and diving into the biggest storylines surrounding each one. Plus, thoughts on the Ravens firing longtime head coach John Harbaugh... Where will he end up? Later, Aaron and J-Mart get into Indiana's MASSIVE win over Oregon in the College Football Playoff Semifinal... Is it time to start having some conversations about Dan Lanning? Is it fair to call this season from Curt Cignetti the greatest single-season coaching job in the history of college football?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy 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.

The Packers are heading to the playoffs, and this time the Bears are bringing everybody. Ryan dives deep into the complete injury landscape for Saturday's Wild Card showdown, revealing that for the first time all season, Chicago will have both Roma Odunze AND Keenan Allen—wait, Luther Burden—on the field against Green Bay simultaneously. But before breaking down the matchups, there's a bizarre curveball to address: reports claiming the Packers reached out to John Harbaugh's camp. What does that mean for Matt LaFleur? Ryan examines the strange speculation and tries to make sense of it all. The episode features an exhaustive position-by-position comparison of both rosters across all three 2024 matchups. Key revelations include Jordan Love's stunning 89.3 passing grade this season, the concerning offensive line situation with Zach Tom listed as a game-time decision, and whether guys like Baron Sorrell and Devonte Wyatt's absence will impact the defensive line rotation. Ryan also highlights the overlooked storyline: in the game the Packers lost, Jordan Love only played half before Malik Willis took over. This time, with a (hopefully) healthy Love and the full receiving corps finally clicking, the offense-defense gap could be the difference maker. This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Hour 1 opens with a wild thought experiment: what if the Giants coaching market gets even crazier, with longshot names like Sean McVay or Matt LaFleur potentially entering the mix? With Shaun Morash filling in for Tiki, the show debates the core question every Giants fan is wrestling with: do you strike fast for John Harbaugh, or stay patient and let the full “historic” coaching class reveal itself? Evan argues the Giants cannot afford a waiting game where they lose Kevin Stefanski while hoping Harbaugh doesn't pick a more playoff-ready “mystery team.” The conversation turns into a full breakdown of urgency versus patience, Rooney Rule logistics, and whether the Giants should have been interviewing candidates weeks ago to get a true head start. Then it gets even messier: Jets fans start dreaming about firing Aaron Glenn for a tiny shot at landing Harbaugh, leading to a heated debate about realism, desperation, and whether a “secret backchannel” is the only way to even find out if a coach would consider the job. The hour wraps with a spirited caller segment, resume comparisons (Harbaugh vs McCarthy), and a preview of a deep dive into why some Ravens fans turned on Harbaugh in recent years.

Chris from Alabama absolutely unloads on the Packers fan base in one of the most passionate calls we've had all season. After a meaningless Week 18 loss to the Vikings with Clayton Tune under center, the discourse has gotten out of control—and Chris isn't having it anymore. Three Hall of Fame quarterbacks in 30 years, consistent playoff appearances, and fans are acting like we're the Cleveland Browns? The conversation dives deep into the Matt LaFleur debate, examining why the criticism doesn't hold up under scrutiny. We break down the injury context that nobody wants to acknowledge—losing Tucker Craft, Micah Parsons, and Jaire Alexander for the season isn't something you just overcome. Plus, an honest discussion about Matthew Golden that might ruffle some feathers: is he struggling to grasp the offense, and was that first-round pick really the right call? We also tackle the offensive line question heading into the playoffs—Morgan or Rasheed at left tackle?—and preview what it's going to take to beat Chicago in the Wild Card round. It's time to stop moping and start believing. We're in the playoffs. Let's act like it. This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Adam Schefter drops major news about Matt Lafleur and Brian Gutekunst's future in Green Bay, suggesting contract extensions are the priority—not performance evaluations. But the real fireworks come when Ryan dives into a data scientist's Shannon entropy analysis that completely demolishes the "predictable play caller" narrative Packer fans have been pushing for years.
