On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul, Matub, and a returning Tyler Brooke of Fanbuzz discuss the winover the Bengals, who looked good, who was good despite looking bad, and who was bad despite looking good. Was Jordan Love one of those options? Is Sean Clifford a thing? Who played better among Romeo Doubs, Samori Toure, Dontayvion Wicks, and Jayden Reed? Is Carrington Valentine the second coming of Sam Shields? And who exactly is going to play safety for this team.

Plus the nuances of kicking and Anders Carlson, AJ Dillon’s secret screw up, a big day for Emanuel, and of course, listener questions, as RAE preseason marches on! 

On the season premiere of Reporting as Eligible, Paul, Matub, and JR take a fast and furious look at Family Night, camp risers like Devonte Wyatt, camp crashers like Josh Myers, and how everyone fits into the post-Rodgers scheme. 

The also briefly discuss the KUBIAK projections for the North, why Justin Fields is likely to fail, why the Packers almost can’t help being somewhat successful, how long we need to give Love to know what’s going on, how long we need to give Joe Barry, and whether Anders Carlos represents a new type of nepotism issue. All of that, plus listener questions, as season five of RAE kicks off.

On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul, Matt, and JR discuss the Jordan Love extension, and every single draftee, from Van Ness to Dubose. The guys go over whether the Packer process was sound, whether positional value was considered, and most importantly, whether any of these guys are any good. Explore Paul’s gripes with Jayden Reed, Matt’s gripes with Anders Carleson, and why Dontayvion Wicks may be better than just about any other receiver in this draft. The tight ends both comp to Travis Kelce, but who will make an impact first, and why exactly was Athony Johnson Jr. available late?

All of this, plus listener questions, as the offseason rebuild (or reload, or rese, or whatever) marches on.

On this very special episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul, JR, and Tyler discuss the Rodgers trade, reminisce about the good times, and praise the unique Packer structure as a catalyst for winning the leverage battle. And for handily winning the trade.

They also preview the draft, and the likely packer targets, discuss dream scenarios, nightmare scenarios, the quarterbacks, the receivers, JSN, and just how much it matters to jump from the 15th pick to the 13th pick. 

Finally, they do their own little mini-draft, and as always, listener questions!

On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul and Tex discuss the NFC conference championship weekend, and just how different the two game are. The AFC is dominated by surefire can’t miss quarterbacks with middling defenses, while the NFC will feature a few longshot QBs in perfectly designed systems, and some stellar defenses.

Will the Eagles’ run defense be their undoing? Can the 49ers shut down the outstanding Philly receiving corps? Can Patrick Mahomes overcome his high ankle sprain to best Joe Burrow and the Bengals? And just how much like the Shanny 49ers are the Packers, and what will they be in the post-Rodgers era?

The guys also take plenty of questions from listeners who want to know how soon that era will arrive, whether a tank is imminent, and if there may be a quarterback or two in the draft worth looking at. Finally, they take on the many sliding door scenarios that have cost Green Bay over the years, and explain the Cowboys ridiculous nearly-hook-and-ladder play!

Intro: Coming Home - Brother Derek

Intersitial: Fishin' in the Dark - Yellow Ostrich

Outro : Come Back from San Francisco - Magnetic Fields

On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul, Matt, and JR wrap up the Lions game, and the season by going over what went right, and the far longer list of what went wrong. Unsportsmanlike penalties, RPOs, Lazard jet sweeps, missed blitz pickups, and Aidan Hutchinson eating small offensive linemen all played a role in the untimely demise of the Green Bay Packers. JR also talks of the Lambeau experience itself, and just what the atmosphere was like. 

The guys also discuss nebulous concepts like who wanted it more, home field “advantage,” leadership, how everyone loves Jamaal Williams, and how much of the Joe Barry problem may actually be a Matt LaFleur problem, which may be more than is commonly understood. All of that, plus a fantastic bunch of listener questions!

On this week’s Reporting as Eligible, Paul, Matt, and JR discuss the Aaron Rodgers’ twitter hack, Keisean Nixon’s unbelievable brilliance, Jaire backing up his trash talk, and the risks of getting a big head, JJ Enagbare’s amazing rookie season, Justin Jefferson’s frustration, and Aaron struggling in a game where defensive backs were allowed to be physical.

They also preview the Lions, the emergence of James Houston, the return of DJ Chark, and the surprisingly strong play of Jared Goff. Hey, did you know the Packers took Amari Rodgers before Amon-Ra St. Brown?

Finally, they go over the Lions’ recent success, where there may be weaknesses, how the weather may actually help for once, and of course, listener questions, some of which are about wetting the middle of the field for strategic advantage.

On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Matt buys a website, Paul sings a song, and JR laments being the only one never to be on SportsCenter, which is, to be honest, pretty ridiculous.

They also break down the win over the Dolphins! The luck! The good plays! The bad plays! The potentially crushing injuries to Christian Watson, Yosh Nijman, and Keisean Nixon! The far less crushing injury to Dean Lowry. And why Bo Melton is terrible, and playing for Rutgers isn’t an excuse, but is another data point in favor of a player being terrible.

They also go over the Elgton Jenkins extension, the amazing Allen Lazard block, some analytical shenanigans by the Dolphins, the Marcedes Lewis game,  the nature of old age, and, of course, listener questions!

Happy New Year everyone!

Intro: Paul

Outro: Pearl Jam - Alive

On this holiday episode of Reporting as Eligible, Tyler and Paul recap the victory over the Rams, Romeo’s big night, Christian Watson, quiet, but effective night, whether it was Aaron or Allen, the best 36-yard rushing performance ever, Keisean Nixon’s absolute greatness, and JJ Enagbare’s potential place in the record books.

They also preview the absolutely terrifying Dolphin offense,which has two receivers in the top 4 of DYAR, plus Raheem Mostert at running back. They do stop to mention the fairly atrocious miami defense, which has a strong defensive line, but not single good defensive back. There’s a path to victory here! And of course, they answer all of your well-thought-out questions.

Happy Holidays to all, safe travels, stay warm, and enjoy a nice cup of RAE on the trip.

On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul, Matt, and JR take a look at some big moments in Packer history, many of which relate to the Rams for no good reason. The big comebacks, the crushing choke jobs, Matt Flynn as the Packers' Frank Reich, the amazing receiving corps of the early 80s, the unheralded running backs, and the legend of Don Beebe in a high school gym. There's Vonnie Holliday, Atari Bigby, and many more, including JR positing that Samkon Gado is the most "remember some guys" Packer, which is obviously correct.

They also discuss some of the most disappointing Packers, the upcoming game against the Rams, the definitions of many of the advanced stats we discuss week-in and week-out, Paul's new Choose Your Own Adventure game, and of course, listener questions.
