ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter joins Jen, Gabe and Chewy to assess the NFC, where he sees the 49ers, Seahawks and Rams among the teams capable of emerging from the conference. Schefter discusses the NFL’s flood of penalties and recent suspensions of officials before weighing in on a Bears-Packers matchup that has lost some of its preseason luster. He reacts to Green Bay’s unusual attempt to rebuild its offensive line on the fly with Kevin Zeitler, Laken Tomlinson and Mekhi Becton. Schefter also explains why Keisean Nixon could make sense as a trade candidate if the Packers continue losing and become sellers before the deadline. Plus, Schefter and Chewy swap stories about the Amalfi Coast.

Schefter: Could the Packers Become Sellers?

ESPN Radio's Evan Cohen joined Wilde & Tausch and believes the Green Bay Packers are not in as bad of a spot as people think! The team performance might be questionable, but with a 2-2 record amidst all the circumstances... maybe not a bad spot after all? And if they can beat the Chicago Bears at home against a backup quarterback?

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.
