What injuries are shaping the Packers' early season performance?
A little bit disappointing the Milli Vanilli drop wasn't there, but I guess you guys are seeing the board pretty well. You're coming off a win. There's Luke Wilson. Parts.
That's a huge, huge call, Parts. You stuck your neck out there. Okay, you absolutely dominated.
I know, but you know what? You notice how these non-athletic nerds, they refuse to give me any credit. Every time we get a win, they're like, oh, that guy got hurt. Like, it's just a layup.
Well, I mean, can we clarify that you guys have had three quarterbacks go out in the
games? Just ignore the noise. Just ignore the noise. I know. You know what?
Hashtag... Stay humble.
Right,
Noodles? It's just so key. Hashtag stay humble. That's what
I instilled in the group last year. I hope that you guys continue it on. But I will say, before we get going, it is bizarro world in the NFL as far as injuries this year. It is crazy. But a
good call is a good call. And let me ask you this, Hazy B. You think Jackson Dart and the dude that does backflips, scataboo, like do you – You think they were going
to cover the number? Yeah. Oh, yeah. They cover the number. I don't think so, dude. I don't think. I don't think.
No, dude. See, you know what? At least Al's brother, which I put him on a different level as you as far as seeing football. I give him credit when he makes a good call. I'll be like, really good call.
You guys got to win. It was a very good call. Very good call. I'm just saying that you've had three asterisks already and we're not even into week three yet.
You're annoyed. Parts, parts. I know. I got ahead of my skis a little bit. We both did. We were up by ten. We blew it. It was a fluke. As Hayes sent to me in that infamous text message, he knows it was a fluke. Everyone knows it was a fluke. This year is English Premier League vibes. We just got to go one week at a time. Control our picks. That's
it.
Okay.
Hashtag
stay humble. Hashtag
stay focused. There it is.
I like that. I like that. Hashtag stay
healthy. Stay healthy, quarterbacks. And we'll get to Al's brother here in a moment because we're on the clock for this game. And I do not. I don't love the way the Packers are set up. I don't love the way they've played. I just got to say this
reeks of an upset. Like,
I
see the Packers going
down.
A prototypical, I don't even know if you can call it a trap game, but it's just one of those ones where it's like you could drop it and be like, we're in one now. I
can see it. 100%. Now, the only thing stopping me from that is the Falcons are worse. They
literally
haven't taken a snap in the red zone yet through two weeks.
Are you worried about Michael Panik's
face? No, I'm worried about the offensive line for the Packers might be the worst in football. It's close. Jaden Reed's out. Drops are still a problem for wide receivers. They don't have a run game. It's troubling. Parsons is still not back. The only thing is it's a short week. It's their first game at home, and Atlanta stinks. Atlanta's yet to have a play
in the red zone. Right. Well, Parts, I wanted to ask you about that. When you don't have a play in the red zone, how are you taking any offensive-type meeting seriously? Like when some guy is trying to give you schemes and this is what we're going to do, doesn't a guy put his hand up and say, bro, we haven't had a snap in the red zone? Or how would something like that?
Some of the veteran guys, yes. Like in the meeting, you start to question like, okay. I get we have a quarterback thing with Cooper Rush who was playing, but in the same breath, Cooper Rush is not a rookie. He should be able to manage a baseline offense that has Drake Lundin, Kyle Pitts, and B. John Robinson into one red zone play. I'm not asking him to light the scoreboard up here. I'm asking for one drive, one... So I do think that... I always found that for us, and this was in all the teams I played for, the sauna, for whatever reason, was when you went to air out the grievances of our coaching staff. Just because we knew there'd be no cameras in there, we always would joke, like, if you bug the sauna, we'd all be cut.
