  • Mark Tauscher: Packers O-Line Moves “Reek of Desperation” After Atlanta Disaster
    Sep 29 2026
    Mark Tauscher joins Kyle & Brust and explains what the Packers’ additions of Laken Tomlinson and Mekhi Becton really say about the state of the offensive line. Tausch describes the veterans as the type of players teams keep on their emergency lists and says Green Bay doesn’t make moves like this unless things have become “really, really dire.” He likes that Brian Gutekunst is attempting to address the problem, but says needing help at multiple positions makes this much different from plugging one temporary hole. Tausch also puts the Falcons performance into perspective. Jordan Love is taking far too many hits, the Packers have struggled to function consistently up front and Green Bay could easily be 0-3 based on how poorly the line has played. Tomlinson and Becton don’t guarantee a fix, but their experience gives the Packers alternatives while they figure out whether their younger linemen can develop into reliable options. Plus, Tausch turns to the Badgers after their comeback win at Penn State. He calls Saturday against Michigan State a “validation” game for Luke Fickell’s program: Wisconsin finally generated some real momentum, but now it has to prove the upset was a turning point by taking care of business as a double-digit favorite at home.

  • Matt Lepay: Are the Badgers REALLY Back After Stunning Penn State?
    Sep 30 2026
    Matt Lepay joins Kyle & Brust after Wisconsin’s dramatic road win over Penn State, and even the longtime Voice of the Badgers admits he was shocked by Jacob Harris’ 70-yard touchdown. After watching the drive get derailed by penalties, Lepay expected another flag to wipe out the play before Harris broke free while running with only one shoe. The guys debate how much fans should enjoy the breakthrough victory while still demanding proof that Luke Fickell’s program has actually turned a corner. Lepay pumps the brakes on declaring “the Badgers are back.” Wisconsin overcame a 17-point deficit despite three interceptions, nine penalties and a minus-two turnover margin, but those same mistakes could easily cost them against Michigan State. Lepay says Wisconsin’s best football is legitimately good, but its worst football can get it beaten by almost anybody. The next step is putting together longer stretches of clean football instead of constantly needing dramatic comebacks. Plus, Lepay breaks down an offensive identity that is still developing around Colton Joseph, Darion Dupree and an evolving offensive line. He also explains why Fickell and his staff should now understand exactly how much rivalry games against Iowa and Minnesota matter to Wisconsin fans after several painful losses in recent seasons.

  • Michelle Smallmon: “I Feel BAD for Jordan Love” & Can the Packers Save Their Season?
    Sep 30 2026
    Michelle Smallmon joins Kyle & Brust after what she calls an “absolute mental and emotional beatdown” following the Packers’ ugly loss to Atlanta. After choosing Green Bay in part because they were always competitive, Michelle admits she can’t even guarantee that anymore. The offensive line can’t protect Jordan Love, the running game has disappeared and questions continue to surround Matt LaFleur, but Michelle insists she’s not wavering on the Packers just yet. What can Green Bay actually fix? Michelle says the quickest change has nothing to do with scheme: effort, fight and intensity. The Packers looked lifeless against Atlanta, and she wants to see a team angry and embarrassed by what happened. Even if everything isn’t immediately fixed, Green Bay needs to become the type of opponent nobody enjoys playing instead of continuing to fold when adversity hits. Pasted text Plus, Michelle reacts to the Packers bringing in veteran offensive-line reinforcements and hopes players like Mekhi Becton can at least stabilize a devastated unit and give Love a fighting chance. But when Ben asks whether she’d actually put money on Green Bay making the playoffs, the optimism suddenly meets reality: Michelle says she doesn’t feel great about their chances, especially with Minnesota, Detroit and Chicago all giving Green Bay plenty of competition in the NFC North.
