As someone who has hand-charted the Green Bay Packers’ rotations on offense and defense this year, I want to go position-by-position through the Packers’ roster, detail how the depth chart stands (at least as of Week 18) and try to tell the story of the team that will be facing off against the Chicago Bears […]

A month ago, Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley said that he bets that defensive end Micah Parsons, who tore his ACL during the 2025 regular season, will break the NFL’s sack record in 2026. Hafley might not be around to see that plan through, though, as he’s been a hot name on the […]

All year, I’ve had fun tracking what I call the “Hafley Cam” during games. You know it. It’s the shot of Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley up in the crow’s nest during a big defensive moment. On my podcast, I placed a few silly prop bets related to the Hafley Cam. Do we see him […]

With Saturday’s Wild Card game being the third meeting between the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears over the span of 6 weeks, I have a pretty good feel for who these teams are and what we’re going to see them do this weekend. Sure, there will be wrinkles and variations and changeups and […]

While the campaign to get Daniel Whelan named as the First-Team All-Pro punter for the 2025 season is in full swing, let’s take a moment to appreciate how impressive a campaign the Green Bay Packers’ third-year punter put up this year.

It sounds like we’re going to have the best version of Josh Jacobs that we’ve seen in weeks when he plays the Chicago Bears on Saturday.

If Trevon Diggs does end up replacing one of the Green Bay Packers’ cornerbacks this week against the Chicago Bears, don’t expect it to be Keisean Nixon. Defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley had some strong praise for Nixon in his weekly presser on Wednesday. I think he’ll play a great game. You know, I know he’s […]

It’s unfair for any one game to be a referendum on a player, coach, or team, but that’s almost always what playoff games end up becoming. I think just about everyone understands how limited the Packers are as a team at this point of the season. There’s no Micah Parsons, Tucker Kraft, Elgton Jenkins, or […]

NFL draft prospects have until January 14th to declare for the 2026 draft, but some of these players are already making their decisions clear.

What do you make of these playoff-bound Green Bay Packers? There is no shortage of possible opinions. Maybe they’re a shambolic mess, maybe they’re a sleeping juggernaut, maybe they’re a badly bruised and broken team that should have been much better, maybe they’re some combination of all these things and more. But they are, above […]
