Acme Packing Company: for Green Bay Packers fans

ESPN podcast producer Daniel Dopp (Fantasy Focus, the Bill Barnwell Show and more) joins to talk a bit about his road to ESPN, the Lions fan experience this season and—of course—to preview Packers @ Lions.

NFL writer Peter Bukowski joins to talk Ty Montgomery's metamorphosis and more.

Is offensive balance overated?

How many NFL teams are appreciably better than the Packers?

Can Randall and Adams bounce back?

We're joined by PackersNews.com's Aaron Nagler to talk about a host of topics. From his roots in the Packers blogosphere to NFL coverage in the digital age. Of course, we also hit on some harder football topics, including the Packers improving playoff prospects, and the state of the NFC in general.

It's Seahawks week in Packerland, as Russell Wilson leads his team into Lambeau Field, a venue that hasn't seen a December loss since 2008. We're joined by ESPN Senior Writer (and Seahawks fan) Mina Kimes to talk about her team, the game ahead, and other general weirdness. 

How will the loss of Earl Thomas impact Sunday's game?

Why are Seahawks players seemingly freer to speak their mind relative to other NFL teams?

What kind of gum does Pete Carroll chew?

Answers to these and other burning questions are all ahead on the latest episode of the APC Podcast.

NFL film expert and APC Pod veteran Ben Fennell joins to break down the Packers victory over the Eagles.

Happy TakesGiving from the APC Pod crew!  To celebrate the holiday, we’re serving up takes of the hottest, freshest and most home-cooked variety.  On the menu:

Clay Matthews possible move back to ILB

Blake Martinez and Kyler Fackrell: Are they any good?

Jason Spriggs choke slams Su’a Cravens

Jeff Janis: Can we cut him now, please?

Jermichael Finley: Shut up. Just please shut up.

We're back in the New York Groove as Ben Foldy, returning from a prolonged BBQ-related absence, has re-opened his Chinatown kitchen to the APC Pod Crew. Reunited and it feels so good. 

Another tough loss has Packer fans feelings. The crew attempts to untangle the "beautiful mess" that is this year's NFL, as well as offering some audio therapy to wayward Packer fans. 

Rebutting last week's discussion about drafting a high-equity wide receiver, Ben Foldy makes the case for Davante Adams as a suitable WR 1a.

As the 4-4 Packers cross the halfway point of the season—licking their wounds after a sobering home loss to the wayward Indianapolis Colts—the APC Pod crew assembles to discuss the season so far. Piggybacking off APC’s midseason award series, we ask ESPN Radio host Gabe Neitzel to reflect on the season so far, and to ponder possible recipients.

 

Who is the team’s offensive MVP so far?

 

What about defense?

 

Which position group has performed best as a whole?

 

We also dip into the listener mailbag to play Front Office Survivor, and to discuss the merits of drafting a first round wide receiver.

Enjoy, and Go Pack Go!

Much like the Packers on both sides of the ball, it's "next man up" for the APC Pod crew. Alex is back, Ben is stuck at work and APC contributor Gary Zilavy steps in admirally for the week 9 edition of the APC Podcast. 

 

 

A shootout loss to the Atlanta Falcons has left Packers' fans with more questions than answers.

Should we feel bad about the loss, or good about the offensive production given the circumstances? 

Is Aaron Rodgers to blame for a "failed comeback attempt" with 31 seconds left?

How dramitally has the NFC North outlook changed just in the last two weeks?

All this and more, ahead on a week 9 edition of the APC Podcast.

A slew of injuries, a steadying if not strange victory over the Bears, and a series of subsequent roster moves have left the APC faithful with many questions. With that in mind, we here at the APC Podcast are opening up the ol’ mailbag. We’ve culled your questions and comments from twitter and email and use them to guide our conversation. Together, along with special guest, APC writer Paul Noonan, we’ll attempt to answer some burning questions:

Can the Packers rely on Ty Montgomery to sustain his success out of the backfield?

Can Damarious Randall be a number one cornerback?

Is Geronimo Allison the coolest name of any current NFL player?

All this and more: Answered!
