Cheeseheads in Chicagoland

Mike and Matt check in on the status of the Packers, then sit down in a packed studio for an engaging six person round-table discussion featuring Charlie Bevins, Garrett Neal, Ally Pruitt, and Gavriel Wilkins.

Topics: The Washington Redskins fringe kickoff returner whose name I already forgot, the Chicago Bears status, the Packers lack of defensive cohesion, legalized gambling, and player labor issues.

Mike, as usual, mentions his advanced age.

The Packers eke out a win over the 49ers on Monday night football. Mike and Matt discuss the progression (and regression) of the defense, rookie wide outs, running back snap counts, and modern dentistry. Matt hurries off to class. Mike is on painkillers because of modern dentistry.

Mike is off in the great northwoods, and yells this episode into his computer microphone. Matt meanwhile is comfy and clear in the Chicago studio and sounds incredible. The game was bad, a 31-23 loss to the Lions in which a bunch of things went wrong. Silver linings are looked for, and found. Gasoline is not a beverage.

Mike and Matt talk about anything except the Buffalo Bills, who didn't bother showing up to Lambeau on Sunday. Mike continues explaining the structural issues which prevent good officiating, Matt explains why holdouts are good, and we completely forget to name a Head Cheesehead, so we'll say its... Byron Bell. Sure.

The first loss of the season was a sloppy affair, and Mike and Matt do their best to clean up the pieces and diagnose what happened. Also, Mike continues to elaborate on why NFL refereeing is the way it is, and Matt predicts the future by introducing the newest Packer Bashaud Breeland. A squeaking chair guest stars.

Football continues to fascinate and confound Matt and Mike, as they recap a Packers/Vikings 29-29 tie. Mike talks about refereeing and why its bad, Matt continues to harsh on the 2-0 Case Keenum, and Mike forgets his own podcast.

Aaron Rodgers is a special person. Mike and Matt spend a lot of time talking about him in their recap of the Packers week 1 victory over the Bears. Also: Mike is mad at Matt Nagy, Tom Brady is a scientist, Ryan Fitzpatrick is baffling, and Tyrod Taylor is better than Case Keenum?
