    Mar 4 2026
    Jason Wilde joins Jim, Matt & Molly to talk about the latest questions (and lack of answers) circling the Green Bay Packers this offseason! How does Bears center Drew Dahlman's retirement impact the Packers in free agency, and is it safer to ask which NFC North is winning the most this offseason or which team is just losing the least? They also discuss what Rich Bisaccia's departure for Clemson says about his decision to apparently leave the Packers, what the NFLPA report card grades really mean for Matt LaFleur as a head coach, and could Justin Fields or Mitch Trubisky succeed Malik Willis as the Packers' next QB2?

  • Jason Wilde on The Homer Hour
    Mar 3 2026
    Packers reporter Jason Wilde joined The Homer Hour to break down the latest offseason developments from Titletown, including what Brian Gutekunst’s recent comments really mean. The guys discussed the Seahawks’ decision not to tag their Super Bowl MVP running back and what that says about roster-building philosophy — and whether the Packers would ever take a similar approach. Wilde added context to Gutekunst’s “absolutely” comments about key players returning, noting that “under contract” doesn’t always mean guaranteed. The conversation also touched on Rashan Gary’s future, how the Packers balance loyalty with cap flexibility, and whether Green Bay’s offseason plan is aggressive enough to keep pace in the NFC. The segment closed with a broader debate: over the next five years, which franchise is better positioned — the Packers or the Seahawks?

  • Jason Wilde: Were the Packers Blindsided by Rich Bisaccia?
    Mar 3 2026
    Rich Bisaccia is headed to Clemson. The Packers say they were blindsided. So what actually happened? In this Jason Wilde segment on Jen, Gabe & Chewy, the longtime Packers insider breaks down Bisaccia’s departure, what it says about Green Bay’s special teams philosophy, and whether the veteran coordinator ultimately became the scapegoat. 030326 Jason on JGC 🏈 Were the Packers Caught Off Guard? Jason says he believes the Packers when they claim they didn’t expect Bisaccia to leave. But he also acknowledges something important: Inside the building, there are people who feel it was “too little, too late” for the organization to publicly emphasize how valuable he was to the team’s culture. That messaging shift matters. 🎯 The Return Game Problem Jason doesn’t sugarcoat it: The Packers’ inability to find a legitimate punt or kick return threat was malpractice. After the excitement of the Keyshawn Nixon era, Green Bay never found a replacement who could flip field position or create anticipation. And whether that’s: Brian Gutekunst Matt LaFleur Bisaccia Or all three The failure was collective. 🧠 Was He the Scapegoat? The question gets asked directly: Did Bisaccia get tired of absorbing blame for issues beyond his control? Jason admits that’s possible. While coverage units improved and the punting situation stabilized, the narrative around special teams remained overwhelmingly negative. He describes Bisaccia as a “genuine article” — a coach who authentically cares about players — and notes that coaches like that aren’t always protected publicly when results don’t follow. ⚖️ The Bigger Takeaway This wasn’t just about special teams rankings. It was about perception, messaging, and philosophy. If the Packers valued him as much as they now say they did — why wasn’t that clearer earlier? And if the return game was such a priority — why was the personnel approach so hesitant? 🏁 The Bottom Line Rich Bisaccia leaving isn’t a crisis. But it is revealing. It shows: Messaging matters. Philosophy matters. And when performance and perception diverge, someone usually pays the price. 🎧 A thoughtful, insider breakdown of Bisaccia’s departure and what it says about the Packers’ internal dynamics — with Jason Wilde on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.

  • Jason Wilde: Packers Drop to 21st — What Changed Inside the Locker Room?
    Feb 27 2026
    The NFLPA report cards leaked — and the Green Bay Packers didn’t come out looking great. In this Jason Wilde segment on Jen, Gabe & Chewy, the ESPN Wisconsin reporter breaks down what the Packers’ drop from 7th to 21st overall really means — and whether fans should actually be concerned. 022726 JGC Hour 1 🏈 Matt LaFleur’s Grade Falls Matt LaFleur dropped from an A- to a B-, with one of the lowest “respect for players” scores in the league. Jason’s first reaction? Context matters. The survey took place during a losing stretch. Emotion plays into responses. A small number of unhappy players can drag down a grade. Jason also pushes back on the idea that this automatically signals dysfunction — noting that nationally, many observers are stunned that Packers fans even debate LaFleur’s standing. 🎯 Stenovich’s “C” — What Does It Mean? Offensive coordinator Adam Stenovich receiving a C raised eyebrows. Jason points out the methodology problem: What exactly are players grading? Play-calling? Position development? Communication? Playing time? He cautions against leaning too hard into a letter without understanding the weight behind it. 🧠 NIL Era & Coaching Accountability Chewy raises the “soft players” concern. Jason acknowledges there may be truth in the idea that NIL-era athletes are more sensitive to criticism — but he also reminds listeners that grades reflect feelings in the moment, not necessarily long-term effectiveness. Being liked and being effective are not always the same thing. 💰 Rashan Gary & Subtle Messaging The conversation pivots to roster decisions, where Jason highlights a key phrase from Brian Gutekunst: “For the first time in recorded history, he said ‘if he’s still on the team.’” That subtle language shift matters. With: A $28M cap hit No forced roster bonus deadline Flexibility to restructure Jason admits he doesn’t have a strong read on the plan — and that uncertainty is notable. ⚖️ The Bottom Line The Packers aren’t unraveling. But something changed. Whether it’s: Survey timing Culture shifts Losing fatigue Or cap maneuvering behind the scenes Jason’s takeaway is measured: Read it. Note it. But don’t panic. The real story will be told by roster moves — not survey letters. 🎧 A thoughtful breakdown of NFLPA grades, coaching perception, and Packers offseason signals — with Jason Wilde on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.

  • Jason Wilde: Are the Packers Undervaluing Jayden Reed?
    Feb 26 2026
    Should the Packers pay Jayden Reed now — or let him hit the market? In this edition of Jen, Gabe & Chewy, ESPN Wisconsin reporter Jason Wilde dives deep into the Packers’ looming wide receiver contract decisions and what they reveal about Brian Gutekunst’s roster philosophy. 022662 Jason on JGC 🏈 The Jayden Reed Question Reed has played just over 50% of offensive snaps in his first two seasons — yet he’s been one of Green Bay’s most productive weapons. Jason explains the tension: When Reed is healthy, he’s dynamic. When he hits the ground, fans hold their breath. And the Packers historically extend about 1.5 players per draft class. If Tucker Kraft is the clear priority from the 2022 class, where does that leave Reed? 💰 What Does the Market Say? Jason outlines comparable contracts for mid-tier wide receivers: Khalil Shakir: 4 years, $53M Darnell Mooney: 3 years, $39M Rashod Bateman: 3 years, $36.75M Darius Slayton: 3 years, $36M The likely Reed range? $12–18M annually. But the Packers’ cap situation complicates everything. 🔄 Christian Watson & Romeo Doubs Ripple Effects Reed’s decision doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Christian Watson may choose to bet on himself. Romeo Doubs is heading to free agency. Devonte Wyatt’s future isn’t guaranteed. If multiple wideouts leave, Green Bay could go from “too many receivers” to thin quickly. 🧱 The Defensive Alignment Curveball The conversation also touches on Jonathan Gannon’s defensive system shift: 4-3 vs 3-4 Stand-up edges vs hand-in-the-dirt Collin Oliver deployment Whether the Packers’ personnel fits the new structure Jason admits the answers aren’t entirely clear — even from the front office. ⚖️ The Bigger Picture Jason’s main point is philosophical: The Packers preach “draft and develop.” But if developed players walk before second contracts, what exactly is the payoff? Jaden Reed represents that tension perfectly: Dynamic. Valuable. But expensive — and not without risk. The next year will show whether Green Bay prioritizes stability or flexibility. 🎧 A thoughtful, insider breakdown of Packers roster math, receiver contracts, and what the future holds for Jaden Reed — with Jason Wilde on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.
