The Interviews

Dave Kaplan of ESPN Chicago joins Jim, Matt & Molly to talk about this week's pivotal Packers vs Bears game on Saturday and how things have changed with Micah Parsons now out for the season -- Kap assures, the Bears will still come to play! They also discuss the matchup versus the Bears defense, which team now has a better roster with Parsons out for the Packers, and who is Kap taking right now -- Jordan Love or Caleb Williams? They discuss the playoff implications for whatever team loses on Saturday, and Kap gives his official score prediction for Packers and the Bears, pt.2!

ESPN’s Rob Demovsky joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy from Denver after one of the most gut-punch losses in recent Packers memory — not because of the score, but because Green Bay presumably lost Micah Parsons for the season with a torn ACL. Rob describes the stunned mood inside the locker room, including the powerful moment when Rashan Gary paused for 12 full seconds before answering how the defense moves forward. It wasn’t quite a funeral atmosphere, but it was nowhere near normal — a team absorbing immediate, season-altering bad news. Demovsky also provides key injury updates: Christian Watson was taken to the hospital as a precaution but was cleared to fly — a positive sign. Zach Tom & Evan Williams avoided season-ending injuries but are “week-to-week,” and Green Bay is running out of weeks. With Parsons out, the Packers must reinvent their defense on the fly. Rob explains: Jeff Hafley will need to lean heavily on blitz packages that worked last year. Corners will have to survive longer isolation snaps with no elite pressure to help them. The pressure gap — 64 pressures for Parsons vs. 28 for Gary — is the largest difference between any team’s No. 1 and No. 2 pass rushers in the NFL. Rashan Gary must not just lead — he must dramatically raise his level of play. The segment also covers: Whether Matthew Golden becomes a bigger factor in Watson’s absence How Christian Watson’s injury happened at the moment Green Bay could have put the game away Why Matt LaFleur’s contract extension now becomes complicated Why Ed Policy may shift more power back toward Brian Gutekunst in head-coach decisions 🎧 A clear, emotional, and detailed breakdown of the Packers’ harsh new reality — only with Rob Demovsky on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.

FOX6 Sports Director Tim Van Vooren stepped into The Homer Hour to break down the Packers’ latest win over the Bears, offering sharp insight into what stood out most in Green Bay’s rivalry victory. From the physicality to the execution, Van Vooren detailed exactly what impressed him about the Packers’ performance. Defensively, the conversation turned to a key concern: How can the Packers finally slow down inside run attacks? Van Vooren outlined the adjustments Green Bay needs to make if it wants to shore up the middle of the field. He also weighed in on whether the Packers’ four-game winning streak has shifted his perception of Matt LaFleur—both as a head coach and as a suddenly more aggressive play-caller. On offense, Van Vooren discussed whether Christian Watson has truly grown into the Packers’ No. 1 wide receiver, and why the offensive line may actually be trending up despite the injury to Elgton Jenkins. A full, detailed look at where the Packers stand—and where they’re headed—as the season heats up.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy as Jordan Love officially enters the national MVP conversation. Schefter explains why Love is starting to win over skeptics, why some analysts remain hesitant, and how every elite-level performance pushes him closer to the league’s top tier. The crew also debates the Packers’ wide-receiver model, with Schefter noting that strength-in-numbers is working — but only because every WR is still on a rookie contract. Eventually, if the group becomes elite, Green Bay will face real decisions. Other major topics include: • Why the Devante Adams situation was unique — and why Goody moved on • How the NFL’s copycat tendencies may shape future WR rooms • Why teams struggle to find QB help this time of year, leading to the Philip Rivers comeback saga As the Packers prepare for Denver, Schefter shares a personal story about getting altitude sickness after returning to Colorado — and explains why the Broncos’ home-field edge is absolutely real, regardless of their schedule strength. He also reacts to Vegas installing the Packers as 2.5-point favorites, calling it both a nod to Green Bay’s rise and a surprisingly bold projection. 🎧 National NFL insight, Packers context, and big-picture debate — every week with Adam Schefter on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.

Fresh off calling Packers–Bears on national radio, Chris Carlin joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy with a clear takeaway: the Packers made explosive plays — but the Bears proved they’re legitimately good. Carlin explains why Chicago’s resilience stood out, especially after falling behind 14–3 in freezing weather. Many teams would have folded, but the Bears fought back, adjusted offensively, and showed why their coaching staff is one of the best in the NFC North. He also highlights: • Why Green Bay’s explosive touchdowns changed the game • How well-coached the Bears are under Ben Johnson • Why the Bears’ fight and execution surprised him • How the NFC race remains wide open after Week 12 Carlin and the crew react to what this matchup means for both teams moving forward — and why the Packers’ big-play ability and the Bears’ coaching foundation could define the rest of the season. 🎧 National perspective, sharp analysis, and real football insight — only on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.
