Where \"Draft and Develop\" isn't just a philosophy...it's a way of life.
I think we should all take a moment to congratulate Caleb Williams for setting the all-time Bears passing yardage record in 2026 with 3942 yards. Did he manage to get to 4000 yards? Well, no, what did I just say. Did he require an extra game to take down previous record holder Erik Kramer, who […]

With the season-ending injury to Micah Parsons, the Green Bay Packers are facing a serious dilemma at EDGE ahead of their wild card matchup against the Chicago Bears with how to properly utilize and rotate their players at the position.

Football games are a series of choices. Run or pass. Go for it or punt. This personnel group or that one. You know the drill. But those choices extend far beyond what actually happens within the game. Football games are indeed a series of choices, but those choices are affected by the teams themselves — […]

After several interviews for general manager jobs in the 2025 offseason, Jon-Eric Sullivan finally got one after his first interview in 2026. Sullivan, who had spent the last several years as the Green Bay Packers’ Vice President of Player Personnel, will be the new general manager of the Miami Dolphins, as first reported by ESPN’s […]

At this point, the Green Bay Packers know how to beat the Chicago Bears. They did it in the teams’ first meeting, getting explosive plays with regularity in the passing game and holding on for a late victory. They dominated the game for 55 minutes in the second contest before falling apart late and improbably […]

Over the Cap has just dropped their cap casualty rankings for the upcoming offseason, which includes four Green Bay Packers in their top 100 players. Only three teams have more plays on the list than the Packers: the Arizona Cardinals (nine), the Minnesota Vikings (seven) and the Washington Commanders (seven). Personally, I only think that […]

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 […]

After a four-game losing streak to end the regular season, the Green Bay Packers now have their sights on the playoffs, starting with a Wild Card matchup against their bitter rivals, the Chicago Bears. This rivalry is back to an elite level after, frankly, several decades of dominance by one side or the other, and […]

The Chicago Bears have released their final injury report of the week, leading up to their wild card matchup against the Green Bay Packers. In it, they listed defensive back C.J. Gadner-Johnson out with a concussion, an injury that he suffered last week in the regular season finale. Gardner-Johnson has been starting in the slot […]

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. Whelan’s rankings in the context of the NFL are tremendous and he absolutely deserves […]

The Miami Dolphins’ general manager search seems to be moving quickly. On Wednesday night, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that the Dolphins have advanced to the second round of interviews, all in-person, for the position and are down to four candidates for the job. For what it’s worth, Miami “mutually parted ways” with their previous general […]

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. The Green Bay Packers running back has been dealing with a knee contusion and swelling problems following the contusion since Week 11, when he was injured on MetLife Stadium’s […]

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 […]

The Green Bay Packers announced on Wednesday that linebacker Nick Niemann, a special teams ace who had been on the injured reserve, was activated to the 53-man roster for the playoffs. The team didn’t need to make a release on the active roster because cornerback-receiver Bo Melton went on the injured reserve today with the […]

Earlier this week, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that the issue with the Green Bay Packers’ non-extension situation with head coach Matt LaFleur is not about their thoughts on him as a head coach; It’s about money. Schefter said at the time that he expects both LaFleur and general manager Brian Gutekunst to be back in […]

According to LaFleur, Melton didn’t have a serious injury like an ACL tear, but he will be going on the injured reserve, ending his season. […]

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 […]

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 […]

Both the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears held walkthroughs on Tuesday, so the first day of this week’s official injury report is just an estimation. On the Packers’ end, head coach Matt LaFleur stated earlier today that the team listened to the advice of their medical staff and decided to have a walkthrough, as […]
