ESPN’s Adam Schefter joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy ahead of a massive Packers–Bears showdown to break down the NFC North race, why the division could be decided in the next three weeks, and why Chicago’s surprising rise has changed everything.
Schefter explains why Jordan Love’s national reputation remains split — with analysts like Dan Orlovsky and Mike Tannenbaum praising him, while others like Chris Canty and Rex Ryan remain skeptical. He reveals a key stat: only three NFL quarterbacks rank top-five in both QBR and passer rating — Jordan Love, Drake Maye, and Matthew Stafford — and what that really says about Love’s season.
The conversation moves to:
• Chicago’s surge behind Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams
• Why Detroit’s coordinator turnover and injuries derailed its progress
• How the NFC playoff field is shaping up, and why no team — Philly, Dallas, Detroit — is safe
• What makes Packers–Bears so appealing for the NFL and why it landed the #1 FOX broadcast crew
Plus: Schefter shares his thoughts on snow-day survival, why he’s officially done shoveling at age 59, and how his family handles winter the “it takes a village” way.
