What insights does Mason Crosby share about the Bears-Packers rivalry?
Listen to Rahimi Harrison-Grody on the Odyssey and iHeartRadio apps.
On the knee! On the fake, Williams. Looking downfield. Watching downfield. Going for it all! It is caught! Bears win it! D.J. Morris!
How do Bears and Packers fans feel ahead of the playoff game?
They go for the jugular. DJ Moore on the full field post. Off play action. Nixon, an absolutely 10 out of 10 A-plus throw for Caleb Williams. He knew it when he let it go. Yeah, we know what that is. That's courtesy of Fox Sports. This is Rahimi Harrison-Groney on 670 The Score. And now we go to our Circa Resort and Casino Hotline. Circalasvegas.com.
What are the injury concerns for both teams ahead of the matchup?
And that is where we go behind enemy lines, as they like to say. He's been on our show before. A lot of fun when he is. Mason Crosby, the Packers kicker from 2007 to 2022. He's the all-time leading scorer for the team. Super Bowl champion, and he's at CrosbyKicks2 on Twitter. Hosts the Mason Crosby Show weekdays, noon to 2 on 105.7 The Fan in Milwaukee. Mason, thanks again for coming on. Yeah, thanks for having me. Big week, third time there in this rivalry.
How is Jordan Love preparing for the playoff game?
How are Bears fans feeling? That's my big question. I mean, there's got to be a lot of excitement, but a little tension, you know, worrying about such a big moment there in Soldier Field. I think it's very funny that a lot of the concerns that Bears fans have are the same concerns that Packers fans have. The injury concerns probably go more on the Green Bay side, but worries about the defensive pass rush, for example, worries about offensive consistency. So it's been similar, the discussions that have been had, I think, on either side. I know, I know. This rivalry is so special to be able to play a playoff game that has not happened a lot in this rivalry. I remember the last time we went a little bit better for the Packers than the Bears on our way to the Super Bowl there in 2010.
But there couldn't be more drama, more storylines, like a better moment for
What role will Trevon Diggs play in the upcoming game?
in Wild Card Weekend and this rivalry happening on Saturday night. I can't wait to sit down and watch, lock into this thing and just see the drama unfold. Mason, do you have the Packers winning? And if so, I'm really curious as to why. You know, I did pick the Packers yesterday. My other two co-hosts picked the Bears, which was painful. I think this really is going to be one of those games like the first two were where it can be anyone's game. Whoever has the ball last, however this thing unfolds, it's going to be tight. It's going to be chippy. There's going to be moments where you think one team has control and then the momentum is going to shift just like it did in those first two.
Is Matt LaFleur's job on the line if the Packers lose?
I think it's going to be tight. I picked the Packers to win 23-20 in a tight game where either – Bears have a chance to tie it late or the Packers kick a field goal to win it. One or the other, unfortunately, y'all remember the situation that happened there in the last playoff game that the Bears hosted and I know y'all are hoping that doesn't happen again here in this one. All right, Mason, you've brought up 2011 now. I'm throwing fire. I'm bringing it today. I got to tell you right now, Caleb Haney is not going to be out there circa 2011. Cody Parkey, I don't know where Cody Parkey is right now.
What strategies might the Packers use to secure a win?
So thank you for going through with a lot of skill going through those Horrible, horrible losses for the Bears against the Packers. You brought the pain. You did, man, but you didn't do it like in a nasty. It was very skillful the way you did it. But trust me, as somebody who has felt that trauma and was at both of those games, one as a fan and one on the sidelines, I feel that kind of stuff. It's never going to get past me. But I will say this. You kind of alluded to it, and I said this, I think it was going into the Saturday night game, the last time these two teams played. It's about as evenly matched up between these two teams as I've seen in years.
What predictions does Mason Crosby make for the game outcome?
And it is because of some of the big injuries, especially if Micah Parsons is playing, we're probably talking about this game a little bit differently. In fact, I know we would be talking about it differently.
