  • Jason Wilde on Jeff Hafley's Failing Defense & Stakes for Packers vs Bears in the Wild Card! - Jim, Matt & Molly
    Jan 10 2026
    Jason Wilde joins Jim & Molly as he pushes HARD against Molly's take that Jeff Hafley might've coached himself out a head-coaching position! Why does Jason disagree with her take that Hafley hasn't done enough to keep this defense from falling off without Micah, why was Mike McCarthy similarly unproven when he was a head-coaching candidate, and is it wrong to prefer offensive head coaches over defensive coordinators like Hafley? Jim also asks how important this game will be for both Hafley and Matt LaFleur -- especially if it's the last we see of them this season!

  • Jason Wilde: Packers–Bears Comes Down to Turnovers — and Jordan Love’s Margin for Error
    Jan 9 2026
    ESPN’s Jason Wilde joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy with a calm, clear-eyed breakdown of what will actually decide the Packers–Bears rivalry matchup — and it’s not emotion or trash talk. Wilde explains that Chicago lives on turnovers: The Bears win when they force them They struggle badly when they don’t That reality puts the spotlight squarely on Jordan Love’s margin for error. Wilde praises Love’s growth and resilience, but stresses that even one giveaway could flip the entire game against a defense that capitalizes on mistakes. Key points from the segment: 🏈 Why run defense numbers are misleading Wilde pushes back on the idea that the Packers “can’t stop the run,” explaining that teams run on Green Bay to: Shorten the game Control tempo Create constant third-and-short situations The real issue, he says, is getting off the field on third down. ⏱️ Fatigue matters more than yardage Long, methodical Bears drives wear down the defense and change late-game outcomes — even without explosive runs. 🎯 Why this game is there for the taking Despite injuries and pressure: The Packers already beat Chicago once The Bears are missing key offensive pieces The matchup hasn’t fundamentally changed Wilde says Green Bay should expect to win — and disappointment would be justified if they don’t. 🧠 The bottom line This game won’t be decided by quotes, hype, or rivalry emotion. It will be decided by: Ball security Third-down execution Discipline in high-leverage moments 🎧 A sharp, level-headed Packers–Bears breakdown with real football substance — only on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.

  • Jason Wilde on Packers–Bears: Protecting Jordan Love, Hafley’s Bold Confidence & Team Edge
    Jan 8 2026
    ESPN’s Jason Wilde joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy with insight into the emotional edge surrounding Saturday night’s Packers–Bears matchup — and it starts with how the team reacted to the hit that knocked Jordan Love out of the previous meeting. Wilde explains why Josh Jacobs’ comments stood out, saying the hit was taken personally inside the locker room — not as a call for dirty play, but as a signal of brotherhood, accountability, and respect for the quarterback. Wilde notes that when players believe in their QB, they respond this way — and Green Bay’s response says a lot about the culture. The conversation digs into: 🏈 Why defending Jordan Love matters Wilde breaks down how veteran teams historically react when their QB is hit late — and why a young, rotating offensive line may hesitate in the moment. He confirms the criticism of the optics, while explaining the fine line between defending your QB and taking a costly penalty. 🔥 Jeff Hafley’s confidence moment Wilde reacts to Hafley pounding the podium and saying “we’re not done” before walking off. Some see bulletin-board material. Wilde sees something else: A coach giving his players permission to believe — publicly. 🧠 The mindset heading into Bears week Wilde describes the Packers’ vibe as muted but intense. Players believe they “kicked one away” earlier against Chicago and expect to play like the better team this time. He contrasts Hafley’s understated confidence with Ben Johnson’s arrogance and Matt LaFleur’s transparency. 🛡️ Offensive line accountability The segment revisits the AP photo showing linemen standing over Love after the hit — optics Wilde admits were poor. He explains why veterans like Elton Jenkins or Zach Tom likely would have reacted differently, and why job security, youth, and rotation factor into hesitation. Wilde closes with a clear expectation: If that hit happens again, there will be a response. 🎧 A revealing look at locker room belief, quarterback protection, and why this Packers–Bears game is about edge, confidence, and identity — only on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.

    Jan 7 2026
    Jason Wilde joins Jim Rutledge & Molly Brown for the first time in Packers-Bears Week, Pt. 3! They get into whether Ben Johnson was calling out Matt LaFleur & the Packers when talking about not resting his starters Week 18 -- including why he DOESN'T deserve the benefit of the doubt. Also, will resting starters ultimately bite LaFleur & the Packers in this wild-card matchup, how will Jordan Love look after being sidelined for 2.5 games, and how much will Trevon Diggs play after his Week 18 debut? Before all that, Jason needs to know how Jim got Braxton Berrios confused with Bernard Berrian...

  • Jason Wilde: Why Matthew Golden’s Role Shrunk, Who Steps Up on Defense & Packers–Bears Reality Check
    Jan 6 2026
    Jen, Gabe & Chewy welcome Jason Wilde for a deep dive into one of the most confusing storylines of the Packers’ season: Matthew Golden’s minimal role after a dominant training camp. Wilde explains why Golden’s usage dropped off, pointing to a combination of: Rookie route precision still developing Bad injury timing (shoulder, wrist) A suddenly crowded WR room once Watson and Reed returned The Packers prioritizing reliability over upside during a playoff push He pushes back on the idea that Golden is a bust, saying the rookie is “way too talented” for this to define his career — and predicts significant growth once opportunities open up. The segment also covers: 🏈 Who earned defensive snaps Wilde highlights Barron Sorrell, Brenton Cox, and Trayvon Diggs as players who flashed enough to deserve bigger roles against Chicago — especially with injuries forcing the Packers to reshuffle the secondary and pass rush. 📉 Rashan Gary vs. young edge rushers Wilde acknowledges that younger players have been more productive snap-for-snap and explains why rotation decisions may change without fully benching veterans. 🧠 Managing expectations after a long layoff With starters sitting late in the season, Wilde agrees with Chewy that rust is inevitable — and that the Packers may need a quarter or two to “find their legs” when the games matter again. 🧩 Looking ahead Wilde cautions fans not to overreact to limited snaps in meaningless games, reminding listeners that playoff football often looks very different — especially for young players who are still learning situational trust. 🎧 Clear-eyed roster insight, rookie development context, and calm Packers analysis — only on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.
