Speaker 1: Hi everyone, Welcome to Packers Unscripted from Packers dot Com.
Speaker 1: I am Mike Spofford, sitting alongside as always my trusted
Speaker 1: colleague West Hodkowitz. Were coming to you here from our
Speaker 1: studios at lambeau Field and West It is almost here,
Speaker 1: the two thousand eighteen season finale for the Packers, Green
Speaker 1: Bay versus Detroit Sunday noon Central time kickoff at lambeau Field,
Speaker 1: our final show of the week, which means keys to victory.
Speaker 1: I think there are a lot of different directions, a
Speaker 1: lot of ways the Packers can win this game on Sunday.
Speaker 1: Where do you want to start? Well? I think the
Speaker 1: biggest one for me when I look at this matchup
Speaker 1: with the lines is these are two really banged up
Speaker 1: football teams when you look at not only what the
Speaker 1: the injury report looks like this week, but the size
Speaker 1: of both the injury reserves for both of these teams.
Speaker 1: So for me, I think the thing that I that
Speaker 1: it's really going to be about which team overcomes their
Speaker 1: deficiency is better. I think you look at the Lions
Speaker 1: right now, in this aftermath of losing carry on Johnson
Speaker 1: for the season. You know, Marvin Jones Jr. Two was
Speaker 1: a big hit too, But Johnson was sort of their
Speaker 1: bright spot. They were dedicating more to the running game,
Speaker 1: and he was averaging over five yards of carry, got
Speaker 1: them a hundred yard performance this season. It really does
Speaker 1: look like a menace for the NFC North and years
Speaker 1: to come. But without him, like Garrett Blunt only averaging
Speaker 1: two point eight yards per carry, they just, you know,
Speaker 1: theoretic is more of a running or more of a
Speaker 1: pass catching running back, so it puts more on the
Speaker 1: shoulders and Matthew Stafford, and last week they just couldn't
Speaker 1: get their passing game going despite that fast start against
Speaker 1: the Vikings. So from my perspective, I think the Packers,
Speaker 1: if they're able to contain Stafford, if you're able to
Speaker 1: eliminate those big plays to the Kenny galadays, I think
Speaker 1: the Packers are going to be able to come out
Speaker 1: of this thing victorious. Yeah. When you look at what
Speaker 1: the Packers have done against the run the last couple
Speaker 1: of weeks, really a run defense being led by the
Speaker 1: two Northwestern alums on that defensive line in Dean Lowry
Speaker 1: excuse me, and the undrafted rookie Tyler Lancaster. You know,
Speaker 1: I like the Packers run defense to continue doing what
Speaker 1: it's doing, which is going to put this game for
Speaker 1: the Lions offensively in the hands of Stafford, and Golladay
Speaker 1: is his big play guy. And you mentioned carry On
Speaker 1: Johnson and obviously the future we could be seeing with
Speaker 1: him in the NFC North. I think goladays, you know,
Speaker 1: falls into that same category. He made the big play
Speaker 1: down the sideline in the first half in Detroit in
Speaker 1: the first meeting between these two teams, I believe was
Speaker 1: a sixty yard pass was part of the Lions jumping
Speaker 1: out to that big lead that the Packers could not overcome.
Speaker 1: But I'm with you. I think, if if the Packers
Speaker 1: can contain Golladay and not give up any of those
Speaker 1: big type of explosive plays to him. Um, the way
Speaker 1: this Packers defense is playing, I I like, I like
Speaker 1: Green Bays chances of keeping this offense under wraps. Yeah.
Speaker 1: It is interesting though, because right now he has seventy
Speaker 1: catches for a thousand and sixty three yards behind him
Speaker 1: is theoretic with sixty one, but he only has three
Speaker 1: four and then really there isn't a lot of bodies
Speaker 1: at that spot. Marvin Jones Jr. And Bruce Ellington are
Speaker 1: both on injury reserve. Golden Tate was traded, like we
Speaker 1: talked about earlier in the week. Yeah, so they've been
Speaker 1: sort of this uh, you know, I don't want to
Speaker 1: call it a hodgepodge, but there just hasn't been a
Speaker 1: consistent three four weapon kind of diversity with that offense.
Speaker 1: And as we've talked about on so many of these episodes, Mike,
Speaker 1: in the aftermath of Kelvin Johnson his retirement, that was
Speaker 1: one of the things I thought really helped Matthew Stafford
Speaker 1: get comfortable, as the fact that he did have a
Speaker 1: bevy of different weapons to turn to in the passing
Speaker 1: game that's not there for them right now. So and
Speaker 1: it's interesting because now all the headlines you're seeing out
Speaker 1: of Detroit are what's the status with Jim Bob Cooter
Speaker 1: as their offensive coordinator when a couple of years ago
Speaker 1: he was the toast of the town that Calvin Johnson
Speaker 1: had left and Detroit's offense actually got better and Couder
Speaker 1: and Stafford sort of had you know, this, uh, this
Speaker 1: rapport going and and that offense was very, very dangerous,
Speaker 1: and suddenly it's it's not like that anymore, and there's
Speaker 1: all kinds of questions as to the future with the
Speaker 1: offensive leadership there. It's funny how, especially in the coaching ranks,
Speaker 1: how perceptions can change fast. And look at uh I
Speaker 1: think it was was a Terrell Austin all those years. Yeah,
Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the Lyons was considered a
Speaker 1: really big supreme coaching candidate when he had Adamican, Sue
Speaker 1: and Nick Fairley and had some head coaching interviews. If
Speaker 1: if I recall Andre Levy, I mean, they had so
Speaker 1: many different guys in that defense that were really big playmakers.
Speaker 1: And then he ends up having his departure and then
Speaker 1: wasn't able to recapture that success in Cincinnati. It's just
Speaker 1: sometimes the way that this business goes. But but from
Speaker 1: the Packers perspective, they've seen Matthew Stafford when he's at
Speaker 1: his best and when he's able to control the temple
Speaker 1: of a game and get the ball quickly out of
Speaker 1: his hands. You've also seen what you can do with
Speaker 1: him when you do take away the foot all when
Speaker 1: you do be able to get him throwing off of
Speaker 1: his back foot and forsaking some of the fundamentals. So
Speaker 1: when you look at just as pure keys to victory.
Speaker 1: The Packers trying to get their first winning streak of
Speaker 1: the season to end the season, trying to avoid losing
Speaker 1: four consecutive games to the Lions, and you know, thirty
Speaker 1: five years. This is what I think is the biggest
Speaker 1: path to victory. It's Mike Petton's defense being able to
Speaker 1: contain Galady. Keeping a safety over the top of him,
Speaker 1: I think is going to be optimal just by how
Speaker 1: he stresses you and some of those Cover two and
Speaker 1: Cover zero looks. So uh, That's gonna be the big
Speaker 1: thing for me is just seeing exactly what the plan
Speaker 1: of attack is for the Packers, specifically if you don't
Speaker 1: have jyr Alexander available do that groin injury. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: another one that we're waiting on. And on the offensive
Speaker 1: side of the ball for the Packers, we're also waiting
Speaker 1: to find out, excuse me, if Davante Adams, who did
Speaker 1: not practice Wednesday or Thursday due to the knee injury.
Speaker 1: Um kind of a sore knee, I guess, is the
Speaker 1: way he termed it from the New York Jets game.
Speaker 1: Whether or not he'll be out there on Sunday. You know,
Speaker 1: he wants to be out there with these records, franchise
Speaker 1: records that we've talked about that he is chasing. But
Speaker 1: on that side of the ball for the Packers, I
Speaker 1: think when I look at this in from the keys
Speaker 1: to victory standpoint, I tell you what West, If Jamal
Speaker 1: Williams plays another game like he did against the Jets,
Speaker 1: with the rushing yards, the receiving yards, the blitz pickups
Speaker 1: and all of the things that he did that were
Speaker 1: so such a focal point of the offense from start
Speaker 1: to finish. I mean, what was it, eighty six out
Speaker 1: of ninety one snaps that he played. He barely took
Speaker 1: a break in that game. If Williams stacks another game
Speaker 1: like that one from last week, a hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: plus yards from scrimmage and and uh everything else that
Speaker 1: he helped out with pass protection wise, I like, uh,
Speaker 1: certainly like the Packers chances to uh to do some
Speaker 1: damage against the trade. Yeah, the Packers needed to make
Speaker 1: hey against the Jets just based on you know, it's
Speaker 1: been a tough year for New York with their run defense.
Speaker 1: I think right now they're twenty six. But the thing
Speaker 1: that impressed me the most with Williams is as you said,
Speaker 1: the things he did in the other facets of the game,
Speaker 1: him as a pass catcher, him stepping up into pass
Speaker 1: protection when Mike McCarthy was featuring him and Jamal or
Speaker 1: him and Aaron Jones trying to get both of them going.
Speaker 1: It wasn't just for the sake of doing it. There
Speaker 1: was a mindset there, There was a mentality And the
Speaker 1: fact of the matter is is when you look at
Speaker 1: the total package, all around package, you know Jamal Williams
Speaker 1: is their best guy in that way where Aaron Jones
Speaker 1: gives you the home run threat and gives you that
Speaker 1: big play potential every single time he touches the ball.
Speaker 1: It's why they compliment each other so well. Yea, So
Speaker 1: in this game, I mean, you're looking at a Detroit
Speaker 1: run defense that's better. But I mean, you know, Jared
Speaker 1: Davis has had his ups and downs this season. I
Speaker 1: mean you look at the front that they have. There's
Speaker 1: been some changes along that as well. Um so, but
Speaker 1: I really do believe, especially in these kind of weather conditions,
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams is built for this. So I mean, if
Speaker 1: you're able to get him twenty touches again, get him
Speaker 1: over a hundred total yards. Again, I don't here if
Speaker 1: it's as a running back pass, you know, passing, I
Speaker 1: don't care if he throws the ball. I mean, if
Speaker 1: you're able to get him involved the way they did
Speaker 1: last week, it's gonna make things infinitely easier on Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1: It's been that way going back to two thousand fourteen
Speaker 1: with Eddie Lacy, it was that way going back to
Speaker 1: two thousand nine and two thousand and ten with Brandon
Speaker 1: Jackson and Ryan Grant. I mean, it's just the way
Speaker 1: it goes in this offense and the way things are structured.
Speaker 1: If you get that type of contribution every single down
Speaker 1: where you have, the defense has to respect Jamal Williams
Speaker 1: and what they're gonna do with them. Aaron Rodgers is
Speaker 1: going to be really productive. Yeah, and also on the
Speaker 1: offensive side of the ball for the Packers. Randall Cobb
Speaker 1: was back at practice, cleared from the concussion protocol from
Speaker 1: what had happened in the Chicago game a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago. As I said, UM still not certain exactly
Speaker 1: what Davante Adams status will be. We talked on our
Speaker 1: last show about seeing the two rookie receivers eq st
Speaker 1: Brown and Marquez Felda Scantling both having high impact games
Speaker 1: in the same contest last week. Obviously you'd like to
Speaker 1: see that continue, do you do you see maybe one
Speaker 1: of these guys or the other, just based on matchups,
Speaker 1: potentially being the guy that has a big game on Sunday.
Speaker 1: St Brown needs to clear the concussion protocol, you know,
Speaker 1: to be in that conversation, but he does. He is
Speaker 1: the guy that that would project is probably the more
Speaker 1: of the slot threat that Randall cop sort of fills.
Speaker 1: Velda Scandling has shown he can play that role as well,
Speaker 1: but they've had to be a little bit more specific
Speaker 1: and how they move the pieces. You've seen Davante Adams
Speaker 1: play that spot. Sometimes when you have mvs on the outside,
Speaker 1: you can see some of those tight ends being able
Speaker 1: to move over there. Honestly, that the guy I actually
Speaker 1: think that's going to have maybe the biggest opportunity of
Speaker 1: this game is Jake kumro Um and not just to
Speaker 1: get all the fans REVVD up in everything, but there
Speaker 1: was a comment that Davante Adams made when I was
Speaker 1: talking to him in the locker room afterwards, and he
Speaker 1: reiterated it this week when he was asked about kumarrow
Speaker 1: in that he is exactly what a quarterback once in
Speaker 1: terms of where he is in his responsibility, his ability
Speaker 1: to fulfill that assignment. Um, if you want him going
Speaker 1: on a crosser, he's going to be exactly where he
Speaker 1: needs to be in the progression at that moment where
Speaker 1: the quarterback wants to find him. He does the same
Speaker 1: thing on you look at Um. You know it was
Speaker 1: a broken play, but him running that that kind of
Speaker 1: corner route last week and being able to get the
Speaker 1: forty nine yard touchdown Rogers puts it right where it
Speaker 1: needs to be and Kumar ruins up making a nice
Speaker 1: play where he brings the ball back inside and looks
Speaker 1: ut field. His mindset as a receiver is I think
Speaker 1: something that's going to make him successful in this league.
Speaker 1: Adams joked that even though he has been kind of
Speaker 1: helping him with a few things, that Kumar actually is
Speaker 1: older than him, but there's still so much untapped potential
Speaker 1: with his game, and I think the Packers one of
Speaker 1: the things this offseason, however, the coaching staff sorts out
Speaker 1: really are gonna want to take a look at this
Speaker 1: guy and potentially the ways you can use him because
Speaker 1: he has a very intriguing skill set that goes beyond
Speaker 1: just the measurables that you see with MVS and e
Speaker 1: Q st Brown. He's a football player first and foremost,
Speaker 1: and I think you know this game specifically, if he
Speaker 1: ends up getting more reps, if if St. Brown can't go,
Speaker 1: or depending on what their plan is for for for
Speaker 1: Cobb being then this matchup, I just think he's the
Speaker 1: kind of guy that could really blow the top off it. Well,
Speaker 1: with the Whitewater background, the home state guy, and everything
Speaker 1: that's gone into Jake Kumero's story, if he finds the
Speaker 1: end zone on Sunday he did against the Jets, we
Speaker 1: might hear the loudest roar we've heard at lambeau Field
Speaker 1: in quite a while. Because the fans are behind this guy.
Speaker 1: They know he was a big star at Whitewater, winning
Speaker 1: national championships in Division three there and everything u um.
Speaker 1: The fans really want to see him rise up in
Speaker 1: front of them and uh and make something happen like
Speaker 1: he did in the preseason. As difficult as this past
Speaker 1: offseason was, and it certainly was, you know, not having
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson in this offense anymore. You and I mentioned
Speaker 1: I believe it was even on yesterday's show, what they've
Speaker 1: been able to do, the talent they've able to cultivate
Speaker 1: at that position and have gotten those opportunities. As good
Speaker 1: as Nelson is, as much as I they'll think you
Speaker 1: can play in this league. Those guys don't get those
Speaker 1: opportunities if it isn't you know, for the way that
Speaker 1: this roster shook out this season, it's unfortunate. Injuries happen.
Speaker 1: But the fact that you can get reps to Kumero,
Speaker 1: to mvs Uh to these young receivers, I think is
Speaker 1: something really is going to behoove them now going into
Speaker 1: next season. Yeah, well, hurry up, Packers fans because the
Speaker 1: season is almost over. So make sure you stop in
Speaker 1: at your local quick trip and pick up your Packers
Speaker 1: cup today. Get eighty nine cent refills on your Cafe
Speaker 1: Cruba coffee all season. Law. Alright, Wes Week seventeen here
Speaker 1: in the NFL is upon us. There are a handful
Speaker 1: of games, some really good ones. I'm sure when you
Speaker 1: and I are back at our desks after Sunday's game
Speaker 1: working on our stories, we're gonna have, you know, half
Speaker 1: an eye on the televisions around the building to see
Speaker 1: what's going on in some of these games. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: put you on the spot, NFC number six seed. Do
Speaker 1: you think the Vikings get it? Or do the Eagles
Speaker 1: get it? The football fan of me is rooting for
Speaker 1: the Eagles in this um just because I think it'd
Speaker 1: be such a great storyline the Vikings. I mean, if
Speaker 1: they get it, they get it, you know, you know,
Speaker 1: top notch. I mean that they deserve it. But just
Speaker 1: the idea of Nick Foles leading the Eagles into the
Speaker 1: playoffs again, this time, they wouldn't be thirteen and three,
Speaker 1: they'd be the sixth seed. But there's just some magic
Speaker 1: in the football when it seems like he's in the huddle,
Speaker 1: didn't quite come together earlier this season, but then when
Speaker 1: he ends up being thrown back in there with Carson
Speaker 1: Wentz's injury, here he is and he's rolling again. And ultimately,
Speaker 1: I think if Nick Foles he's he's playing for a
Speaker 1: starting job right now. He wants to show that when
Speaker 1: he goes into free agency this year, he can be
Speaker 1: that weekend and week out starter for a team. So
Speaker 1: I I think from a storyline standpoint, if you're rooting
Speaker 1: just for a reason to watch the games, it's a
Speaker 1: lot the narratives a lot more intriguing. If the Eagles
Speaker 1: could find a way to sneak into this thing, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that the Vikings are going to find a
Speaker 1: way to beat the Bears at home. I'm not sure
Speaker 1: the Vikings a week later would be able to go
Speaker 1: to Chicago and handle that Bears defense in the elements
Speaker 1: in January and everything, because you talk about a back
Speaker 1: to back type of thing, like with the Packers and
Speaker 1: the Vikings in two thousand twelve, when you went from
Speaker 1: the Metro Dome in week seventeen to lambeau Field for
Speaker 1: a wild card playoff game, it just becomes a completely
Speaker 1: different matchup. But that being said, I will also say
Speaker 1: this about the Vikings because I made this comment in
Speaker 1: my Insider inbox. The change was made at quarterback. But
Speaker 1: aside from that, this is essentially still the team that
Speaker 1: played for the NFC Championship last year. Teams like that
Speaker 1: they're in this situation. They're going They're going into their
Speaker 1: locker room on Sunday, getting suited up, getting ready, saying
Speaker 1: all we want is a shot. Just give us another shot.
Speaker 1: And when a team has that type of approach, if
Speaker 1: they can get in and with the experience that the
Speaker 1: bulk of that roster gained last year, with the run
Speaker 1: that they made almost to the super Bowl, they could
Speaker 1: be a dangerous team in the NFC if they can
Speaker 1: get it. The only thing is, though, that I wonder,
Speaker 1: is can can Cousins be consistent enough? Absolutely, you absolutely
Speaker 1: about Keenum last year, even though you know he is
Speaker 1: is Denver showed this year he has his limitations, but
Speaker 1: he was just so darn consistent leading up to the
Speaker 1: NFC champions right. It was like you knew exactly what
Speaker 1: you were going to get from Keenum every week, and
Speaker 1: so then the Vikings could build everything around what they
Speaker 1: were going to do on defense in order to in
Speaker 1: order to win a game, because Keenum just gave them
Speaker 1: something to count on. And I totally agree with you, Cousins,
Speaker 1: consistency has been an issue and it's why Minnesota season
Speaker 1: has been so up and down. Yeah, I mean you
Speaker 1: look at it, though you know more recently, maybe with
Speaker 1: the exception that Seattle game Miami, he did exactly what
Speaker 1: he needed to do. He played a picture of perfect
Speaker 1: performance against Detroit. If you can stitch those together you
Speaker 1: get on a run. But the issue there is that,
Speaker 1: you know, you look at him this year, he has
Speaker 1: seventeen turnovers on the season, seven fumbles lost, ten interceptions.
Speaker 1: That's been one of the bugaboos for him this entire career,
Speaker 1: is that as talent as he is and as much
Speaker 1: as he's thrown the football and been proven that he
Speaker 1: is a bona fide starting quarterback in this league, it's
Speaker 1: those type of things that can really cost you this
Speaker 1: time of year. So again we'll see this is gonna
Speaker 1: be a supreme test. It goes back to what I
Speaker 1: said two weeks ago with the Packers playing the Bears. Okay,
Speaker 1: if you want to be a playoff team, you've got
Speaker 1: to beat this team. The Vikings are in the same
Speaker 1: boat right now. You want to be a playoff team,
Speaker 1: you win at your own house, you beat one of
Speaker 1: the top teams in this conference. Yeah, a couple I
Speaker 1: want to ask you about. In the a f C.
Speaker 1: I'll start with the a f C North. You have
Speaker 1: the Ravens controlling their destiny for the division championship facing
Speaker 1: the Browns. If the Ravens were to lose and the
Speaker 1: Steelers beat the Bengals. Then Pittsburgh wins the a f
Speaker 1: C North and gets into the playoffs. How do you
Speaker 1: see that one shake up? It's basically the same exact
Speaker 1: thing of what the NFC is going through right now
Speaker 1: with Philadelphia Minnesota vie for that spot. Pittsburgh has kind
Speaker 1: of been sputtering a little bit down the stretch there,
Speaker 1: the team that really hasn't had been able to sustain
Speaker 1: momentum during December. Whereas you have Baltimore, which feels like
Speaker 1: a new team right now with Lamar Jackson and the
Speaker 1: defense a in the way that they're playing. The difficult
Speaker 1: thing is, though, is that the Steelers are taking on
Speaker 1: a Bengals team that really has had to win knocked
Speaker 1: out of their sales, is not going to have Vonte's
Speaker 1: perfect available, you know. Can they just get the job done,
Speaker 1: you know, and and win the game and see where
Speaker 1: the chips fall. It's all on the Ravens right now.
Speaker 1: Then the Browns, and the Browns at seven, seven and
Speaker 1: one are trying to finish above five d. This is
Speaker 1: this is a playoff game type of thing for the
Speaker 1: Browns because with where that franchise has been, if they
Speaker 1: finished this season above five hundred. The the optimism and
Speaker 1: the anticipation for nineteen with that franchise will be through
Speaker 1: the roof. Thank you. I mean everyone was asking me about,
Speaker 1: you know, what are you and play for playoff spots
Speaker 1: or or play for draft position and things like this.
Speaker 1: Tell the Cleveland Browns at the last six weeks haven't mattered. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a team that is really trying to
Speaker 1: build something going into next year and be like, all right,
Speaker 1: we're not only in a position to compete for a
Speaker 1: playoff spot. They want to run. They want to be
Speaker 1: the next team to make a Super Bowl with a
Speaker 1: young quarterback. You know. So yeah, but the problem for
Speaker 1: it's gonna be an excellent matchup just if you you
Speaker 1: have no doubt. I think so too. I think I
Speaker 1: usually don't get two wrapped up in a f C
Speaker 1: games because I'm always watching the NFC that much more closely.
Speaker 1: But if I had a chance to sit and watch
Speaker 1: an a f C game on Sunday, I'd watch Ravens
Speaker 1: Brown because you have I mean, it's the two young
Speaker 1: quarterbacks that have sort of shined out of this draft.
Speaker 1: Absolutely seeing which team maybe wants a little bit more.
Speaker 1: The Browns trying to get their first winning season since
Speaker 1: two thousand seven with Derek Anderson. I think something like that,
Speaker 1: or the Ravens, who have always sort of been the
Speaker 1: heart attack guys at the end of the season. So yeah,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be an excellent matchup to and whoever gets
Speaker 1: that spot, whether it be the Ravens or the Steelers,
Speaker 1: they'll have earned it. Yeah. One other one Sunday night
Speaker 1: football to run past you. Colts and Titans, a de
Speaker 1: facto playoff game to end the regular season for the NFL.
Speaker 1: The winner is into the a f C playoffs, the
Speaker 1: loser is done. Who do you like? It has to
Speaker 1: be the Colts, It has to be Andrew Luck. It
Speaker 1: sounds like Marcus Mariota is going to be back for
Speaker 1: the Titans, that they will have their starting quarterback. But
Speaker 1: that said, I agree with you even on the road.
Speaker 1: I like Indie in this game. But with all due
Speaker 1: respect to Marcus Mariotta, my wife doesn't know who that is.
Speaker 1: So I mean, like you look at it from a
Speaker 1: name aspect. You want names in the playoffs. This is
Speaker 1: Andrew lux game in coming back off the shoulder injury
Speaker 1: from last year, a guy that led them to so
Speaker 1: much success his first couple of seasons. If he can
Speaker 1: re ignite that fire, my goodness. I mean, it doesn't
Speaker 1: really matter how their season plays out. If they make
Speaker 1: the playoffs, they're in the same boat as the Cults.
Speaker 1: They're feeling great about where things are in contrast to
Speaker 1: where they were sitting last year at four and twelve
Speaker 1: without him. So um, yeah, it'd be great. And you know,
Speaker 1: for the you get to tip your cap to the
Speaker 1: Titans as well, new coach, new vision, trying to you know,
Speaker 1: build some of their own success, get to the playoffs again. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean a team, a team that got to the
Speaker 1: playoffs and one on the road at Kansas City last
Speaker 1: year and got to the second round. They're looking to
Speaker 1: get another shot as well. Yeah. So I mean, if
Speaker 1: they're able to do it, awesome to them. I just think,
Speaker 1: you know, you always talk about baseball, right, nobody ever
Speaker 1: wants the Brewers in the playoffs. They'd rather have, you know,
Speaker 1: the Cardinals or the Braves, these big markets. You know,
Speaker 1: Andrew luck is a compelling storyline. But you know, if
Speaker 1: the Titans can do it, best of luck to them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well it should be It should be a great Sunday
Speaker 1: of football in the NFL for sure, and with that
Speaker 1: we'll call it a rap on this edition of Packers Unscripted.
Speaker 1: Be sure to follow all of our coverage of the
Speaker 1: team on Packers dot com and of Sunday season finale
Speaker 1: against the Lions on Twitter. He's at West Hot, I'm
Speaker 1: at Mike Spofford at Packers for the team account. Thanks
Speaker 1: for tuning in, everybody, See you next time.
