Deck: intro for us
Deck: Remember this one? Here we go.
Deck: Well, here we are. Welcome back Monday. Monday reactions. We got a happy, angry Mike. We got a semi -okay Nolan today, right, Nolan? Are you all right?
N D: Hey. Backer week is over with. We're moving on, right? that We got to talk about the game, though.
Deck: We're moving on. and Yeah.
N D: mike Mike had... Probably the best seats. I've talked to somebody that had the best seats. He got Lambo leaped. He got. Man, you had quite the Sunday, that's for sure.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: Yeah, it was fun, man. it It was not what I expected it to be. Listening to the show last week, I was pretty pessimistic. but I don't think Green Bay gave me anything to be.
angrymike: excited about i didn't think that they had this in them but i think this is Kind of not not helping the Bear fans get through this, but... It just kind of shows you early season doesn't really matter all that much, and you have no idea what your team's going to be by the end of the year.
N D: Right.
angrymike: And. Bears played great the first couple weeks. and Had a stinker yesterday, but Green Bay had a stinker against the Falcons. so um But yeah, overall, it was it was a...
angrymike: Matt LaFleur master class. yesterday. So it was it was fun to watch.
N D: So... Yeah, so the question now... becomes because I got on X last night. I don't know why, but I jumped on X. And it was all like.
N D: everybody's bowing down to LeFleur. LeFleur this, he, bay all this stuff. And like, well, 24 hours ago, you didn't want the guy in the in the building.
angrymike: Yep.
N D: So... I mean, and that's, and that's the same thing.
angrymike: best So...
N D: Now everybody's turned on Ben Johnson to the point of that's a bit, doesn't know how to coach. He's the worst coach ever.
Deck: wow
N D: It's like. My God, we're in week five. And the thing I said on the way home, cause my wife looked over and by the way,
angrymike: Yes.
N D: Bad dad didn't come out yesterday. I was i was pretty calm, cool, and collective.
angrymike: Well that's good.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: Yeah.
Deck: Good to see you.
N D: But my wife looked at me, and she's just like, so how you doing?
Deck: Good to hear.
N D: I'm like, you know, I said, a loss in October. It. obviously it's a rivalry i i wrote down some things it's one loss it's at lambo We had our QB2 going. Nomen on guy.
N D: we We lost players on offense and defense.
angrymike: Yep.
N D: um
angrymike: Yep.
N D: Yeah, I mean, the Bears started off 0 -2 last year. we were one in five against the NFC North last year and who won the division. So it's like. Yeah, the season's not over with. Yeah, we're getting banged up now. I think we lost three guys. We lost Stevenson, Dale, and Edwards yesterday from hamstrings. and Whatever else, we need Williams back.
N D: We need Monongai back.
angrymike: yep
N D: Those are your two big keys. And, you know, we we put on the. X all the time. Don't use injuries as an excuse. But like I told Chad before we came on. I'm not using that as an excuse.
N D: We got beat. Our defense was horrible. That wasn't on Caleb Williams.
angrymike: Yeah.
N D: That wasn't on Bajent. We couldn't cover.
angrymike: No.
N D: I mean, there'd have been some. Guys other than Watson and Golden could have had, Sky Moore could have had probably 10 receptions if he would have thrown no more.
angrymike: Yeah, I think.
N D: But we... we Yeah, we can't use that as an excuse, but...
angrymike: Yeah
N D: On the other hand, if Caleb's playing and Mnangai's there.
angrymike: yeah
N D: It's... Both teams are in double digits, whether it's 31 to 27 or whatever it is.
Deck: Well, let's let's ask Mike that, Mike.
angrymike: Yeah, I think if you lose it
Deck: From what you saw, does that does Caleb and them make that game different?
angrymike: Yeah, so.
angrymike: No, i don't I don't think so yesterday. I think if it was... ah I think if it was a... 21 -17 loss, I would say yes. But a 31 -7 is just a... trucking um but You know, if you look at the whole game as a whole.
angrymike: I think green Bay set the tone immediately. Like I remember. Tucker Kraft caught a really short pass, and he turned it into like an eight -yard reception, and he just... laid the guy out that was trying to tackle him. And I'm like, okay, it looks like green base playing aggressive today.
angrymike: you know but Bay didn't put them in really bad spots and gave Green Bay a lot of really short fields to score. but man green bay established the run pretty early even though they didn't have a very good running day at least they had the threat of a run early and Lloyd had a couple good runs, and then Green Bay just started attacking over the top, and I think they really exposed.
angrymike: what what the Bears have been hiding the last couple weeks is they never really had a quarterback they could throw over the top of of your corners and expose your safeties a little bit.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: And Kristen Watson is just a legit weapon, dude. if if If anybody wants to keep... talking to me about how he's the six game wonder. Well, man, he's having a pretty damn good first five games, and he's on pace to.
angrymike: you know, to to have a great season, but of course he can always get injured, but I don't think people realize that I posted on X this morning.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: Matthew Golden. and Christian Watson. are the top duo in the NFL right now in yards and touchdowns. And people don't think about that. They think of pick -ins. They think of... you know, CD lamb, both those guys have been healthy.
angrymike: And didn't have the offensive line that...
N D: Yep.
angrymike: Problems that Green Bay's had. Those guys are leading the league, and I think they showed a little bit of that yesterday. But. They're legit. But I think overall, the defense for Green Bay played extremely well. They also didn't have Parsons and Cooper, their top two defensive players, so I'll add that. They lost Hargrave in the middle of the game.
angrymike: I think in...
Deck: He's also here now, too.
N D: Yeah, they said he's out now with an Achilles, right?
Deck: Yep.
angrymike: Yeah, he's out for the year. So, I mean, Green Bay.
N D: Ugh.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: didn't have jacobs didn't have reed didn't have you know banks sucks but they didn't have banks they didn't have Zach Tom, Zach Bocabuele, it's not like g Green Bay had a full roster coming into this game.
angrymike: right they they were just as injured but
N D: Right.
angrymike: You lose your quarterback, obviously that's going to have a huge impact. but Bajan and... Keenum looked great. just the last two weeks.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: you know And that just kind of shows you. You can have a shock factor with a backup. But backups are backups for a reason.
N D: Exactly.
angrymike: and you can surprise people one week but they ain't surprising nobody the next week
Deck: Yep. Yep.
angrymike: and And that's why you guys need Caleb Williams back. But I think the Bears are going to be fine. I think they're going to be a playoff team. And Green Bay, if they can get past the Cowboys this week, I'll feel a lot better about them. You know, it's it's still early and they're both three and two for a reason.
Deck: Well, that's what I got here, Mike, to ask you a question. Did they right the ship yesterday? Did the Packers right the ship or is it just they came out and they... I couldn't watch the game.
Deck: because you know they had this the freaking skills
angrymike: Yeah, I thought
Deck: Steelers Colts on the other channel for me. And I was like, great, thanks.
angrymike: ah you couldve You could have surprised me. that Green Bay had offensive line trouble. this year. Because I think, granted, the Bears don't have a great... front seven I mean, Booker had a little bit of a run where he had a couple sacks right before the end of the half, and I thought that's when...
N D: he
angrymike: The Bears were going to turn it on a little bit. But after that, they got no pressure on Love pretty much. the whole game i mean he he was could sit back there and throw and they didn't even have zeitler in there yet they get him back next week he's gonna start so i think that offensive line could get even better but I think they righted it.
angrymike: but It's the NFL. the Next week he could suck and and lose to the Cowboys.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: So i'm I'm taking it week by week at this point, but it's very encouraging how they played.
Deck: Right.
angrymike: They put it all together, no doubt.
Deck: Yeah. Right.
N D: And and i've used the we've used it all the time, any given Sunday. um you You could go over somebody's schedule. And like you said, the way YouTube. The way you guys played. against the Bucs.
N D: Uh, the Viking game, the way the bears played against the Vikings. Um, the way they played against the eagles and all of a sudden you i mean that wasn't the same team that beat the Eagles, you know, so.
angrymike: No. No.
N D: Yeah, next week they've got Atlanta. they could They could go score 50 points against Atlanta. And win. But then you've got to. Three points against Chicago, seven a again or against Minnesota, seven against Green Bay.
N D: Um, I don't know. i it's Yeah, it's any given Sunday. That's why. Vegas makes money because. If all the favorites won. they'd be handing out tons of money.
angrymike: Yeah, I'll tell you what Vegas really missed on this one, by the way. but um I think they were expecting, kind of like what I did, that Bajent would...
N D: Yeah.
Deck: yeah
angrymike: would be more of a game manager instead of throwing. multiple picks and losing fumbles, right? So.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: green bay which i thought was I was actually blown. blown back by this this morning i saw that the line opened for the cowboys and the Packers with the Cowboys favored one and a half.
angrymike: And I'm like, is that right? And it's it's now it's switched to one and a half favored by Green Bay. But. I... You know, that's a little bit of a disrespect for the Packers, but that just kind of shows you that.
angrymike: any given week right and then it's how teams match up against each other too
Deck: Is it in Lambeau next week? i don't I haven't even looked at it. I know my my team's off.
angrymike: Yeah, it's an it's it's...
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: It's in Lambeau.
Deck: My team's out.
angrymike: Yeah.
Deck: They're 5 -0.
angrymike: It's in Lambeau.
Deck: They played a pretty good game yesterday, so I don't really have much to say. But I'll let you two just keep talking.
angrymike: Yeah, we can.
N D: Did... We could talk about the Vikings game. did I mean...
Deck: No, you guys.
N D: When it was tied 13 -13.
Deck: Yeah.
N D: Did you think, oh my gosh, the real Vikings are showing up?
Deck: Yep.
Deck: I was nervous at 1313, but then when... i Don't know there's something about Kyler. I Nolan, I know you don't like him, and Mike, I kind of think... You might. but not but the guy just all of a sudden started ru
angrymike: He's alright. He's alright. Yeah.
Deck: He just started running yesterday and he got us.
angrymike: I don't stay up at night thinking about it.
Deck: you know
angrymike: Yeah, i don't I don't stay up awake at night.
Deck: Go ahead.
angrymike: thinking about Kyler Murray.
N D: No.
angrymike: So I don't know.
N D: i don't think none of us do
angrymike: I don't know. but I know he's accurate.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: I think he's twenty four or thirty yesterday he Got them moving.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: I mean, the Saints aren't an easy team to beat in New Orleans. And they came down there and the defense, I think, gave up like 140 total yards or something like that. Brian Flores was.
Deck: Thank you. they were They were on fire yesterday.
angrymike: in his in his
Deck: They were on fire.
angrymike: Yeah, he was in his bag. They look good.
Deck: Yeah, but we had a Just a couple of stupid fumbles that a couple of times, you know, I can't believe the fumbles this year. From what I've seen, guys are really able to punch that ball out. I don't know what the deal is. but If we can control those turnovers, I think the Vikings are going to be okay.
angrymike: Yeah, so what do you...
Deck: And i I sent Nolan a picture of the rest of the schedule, and I i have him winning 11 games. No one's got them losing seven in a row here. I don't think that's happening. I don't think that's happening.
N D: Ah.
Deck: Bye.
angrymike: Nolan, yeah, Nolan's...
N D: I know. I'm jabbing. I'm jabbing.
Deck: I know you, won but you really you really you're not.
angrymike: Yeah.
N D: and I got to jab you, Chad, you know?
Deck: because You're like, no, they're going to lose seven in a row. And I'm like, no, they're not. They're going to beat the Colts. It's going to be a good game against the Lions. I think we can beat the Lions. I think our defense can.
Deck: can... put a little pressure on golf and we we stopped the run pretty well yesterday you know not that they had ntn in there but you know i don't what what happened to elvin kamara they gave the guy like five carries and that's it i mean just boom and he was done
angrymike: Yeah, I don't know
Deck: Yeah. But, Mike, I was going to go back to the Packer Bowl.
N D: Well, that same.
angrymike: Yeah. they
N D: Same thing with the Bears. Swift only had a few.
Deck: What's that? Yeah.
N D: I was just saying Swift only.
Deck: Mike, I was going to.
N D: yeah I mean. Roshan Johnson was in there for. I mean, he only had five carries, but it seemed like Roshon Johnson was in on. Every other play, if not that, Swift sat out. So I don't know if he's still in the doghouse, but I know he was on the injury report.
N D: With knee and hip. So maybe he's. More bangdom. banged up than what They're telling the fans.
Deck: what they're telling you yeah so But Mike, how far can the pack go without a run game?
N D: Yeah.
Deck: I mean, they I saw the one hit they put on. Who was it that scored the touchdown? Put the hit on the bear guy and just put him right on the ground.
angrymike: Marshawn Lloyd.
N D: Good Johnson.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: Yeah, Marshawn Lloyd.
N D: Yeah.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: He ended the day not great. I mean, he had... just over 10 carries. And I think he averaged like three yards of carry, but. You know, they they had Pierre Strong in there, and I think they were... they were looking more for blocking and more for.
angrymike: You know just Just guys that. Or more assignment, sure. But towards the end of the game, they brought in... Caleb Johnson again. and caleb johnson had like seven carries for 30 yards so he didn't he was not great either but He busted off a 23 -yarder. that you can just tell he has a different.
angrymike: Like he can hit a hole and go and and I think he's probably the best runner that Green Bay has, but we're still waiting for that Josh Jacobs situation to kind of clear its its head a little bit. And I think if they get Jacobs back week nine.
angrymike: that could that could flip it on its head too and all of a sudden turn that run game around.
Deck: Is that what you're hearing in week nine?
angrymike: But. they I think there's...
Deck: or what it
angrymike: Well... ah What I've been hearing is like...
Deck: Are you hearing week nine or are you hearing different?
angrymike: It could be...
angrymike: Well, yeah, I mean, from the beginning, it's been like week eight.
Deck: Oop. I think I'm out again
angrymike: They thought they thought he could get suspended for like six to eight games. So I think the eight games could be the long part of that. But until I see that video or it gets released, I don't think. We're going to know for sure.
angrymike: um But.
N D: He could be all... All year.
angrymike: It could be. Yeah.
N D: I mean, if they're dragging their feet, but why would you, I mean, wouldn't green baby pushing going, Hey.
angrymike: And if that's.
N D: Let's get this done, or is it all the NFL going? We're doing our investigation. Leave us alone. or
angrymike: Well, I think the NFL saw, the NFL's probably seen the film already. and They're all about themselves, really. But also on the flip side of that.
N D: yeah
angrymike: If Green Bay knew it was bad. Don't you think they would have brought in somebody a little more senior? um that could have brought in like uh
Deck: I think you knocked me out
angrymike: um Jamal Williams or somebody like that that knows the LeFleur offense that could have just came in and probably been a better blocker and a little bit better runner, but they haven't done that yet.
Deck: You got your your phone on?
N D: Yeah.
Deck: Yeah. Time around right now. My camera's on stop.
angrymike: So that's why I'm like once we find something out and I think Green Bay can make a move to get a veteran running back in But if you remember 2010. Green Bay won the Super Bowl that year. Their run game sucked the entire year until James Starks came back, and James Starks kind of gave them a little bit of boost ah the last couple games a year and through the playoffs.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: So it may end up being something like that, but I just hope Green Bay has enough time to...
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: To be able to. stay afloat until you know, Parsons and possibly Jacobs comes back. but
N D: Well, when we looked over the schedule, we had
angrymike: But yeah.
N D: All four teams winning at least nine games or more, so. we're on We're on pace right now. I mean, we've got... Three of us at three and two. We've got the Vikings at 5 -0.
angrymike: Yep.
N D: But. yeah it's it's going to be a slobber knocker in this division and
angrymike: Yeah.
N D: You know, will we get. Two teams, three teams into the playoffs. I mean, obviously with the NFC West over there, man, 49ers. I mean. Ha.
angrymike: Yeah.
N D: 49ers sitting at 5 -0. They're a good team. football team right now.
angrymike: They are. I mean, they're they're really good. i
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: They're very well coached. It seems like whenever they have an injury, they always have. somebody step up and play better.
N D: Next man up, yeah.
angrymike: Yeah, and that's a sign of a really good coach too. so Um, Yeah, they're going to be tough to deal with. but I mean, the Seahawks, you know we've seen a lot of teams win a Super Bowl and and not be great the next year.
angrymike: So.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: i mean it's possible that they're slipping up a little bit but i think they got ah a ton of talent too. But our division throughout, man, I think it's exactly what we thought it would be. It's competitive.
angrymike: We knew each one of the teams would have some sort of flaw. And I do think the Vikings' lack of offense is going to catch up to them at some point. But they keep stacking wins, kind of like what I said last week, right? it They already got five wins, man.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: They only need six more to make the playoffs.
Deck: They got the bye week at the perfect time.
angrymike: Um.
N D: Yep.
Deck: I'm back, by the way. I don't know what's going on in my house.
angrymike: Yeah.
Deck: My internet. our internet is like strong all the time until the day i want to do a podcast and then it
N D: Yeah, welcome back. ah
Deck: goes to crap, but...
angrymike: Well, dude, you can't go cheap on the dial up. you know you got to get rid of those america online discs and and get some fiber
Deck: Yeah. Yeah.
N D: ah
Deck: yeah There you go. we'll get We'll get the Elon Musk thing or whatever it is. but
angrymike: Yeah, so we were talking about we were talking about the the division, how you know the the bottom three teams are 3 -2, the Vikings are 5 -0, but the Vikings just keep stacking wins.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: So, I mean, you can call them bad i mean all you want, right?
Deck: right
angrymike: Right, Nolan? You can call him bad.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: but
N D: Darn right. ah
angrymike: The thing is, they keep winning. And so Peace.
N D: Yeah.
Deck: They keep winning. They keep winning.
angrymike: Yeah. Yeah, and it's just all they do.
Deck: And yesterday's win.
N D: But this is the perfect part of the schedule to do it.
Deck: Yesterday's win was good.
N D: I mean, obviously you.
angrymike: It is.
N D: yeah I mean, obviously the wins over Chicago and Green Bay. Those were bonus wins because I don't think anybody expected Minnesota to win those two. So.
Deck: I thought I did.
angrymike: And.
Deck: I don't know. I told you we were going.
angrymike: man
Deck: Six in all, buddy. We got the buy at the right time.
angrymike: ah
Deck: We got... People are going to get healthy.
N D: You said 6 -0 after the Bears game, but that's okay.
Deck: They're going to come back.
N D: You go ahead.
Deck: Well, whatever
angrymike: I think... ah I think also. The reason why the bottom three and two teams can feel a little bit better about themselves is... The Bears are getting Caleb Williams and my non -guy back.
angrymike: The Lions are getting Brian Branch back on their defense. The Vikings are relatively healthy right now.
Deck: and
angrymike: So i mean they're going to get Jordan Mason back maybe.
Deck: He comes back after the bye.
angrymike: I mean. What? But...
Deck: Hawkinson's out with a concussion. he would Kyler Murray was thrown to two guys I'd never heard from before, ever.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: Yeah.
Deck: I'm like, okay, all right, you know?
angrymike: Yeah. That's true, but I mean...
Deck: And then Aaron.
angrymike: in this past game.
Deck: Aaron Jones ran for 100 yards again yesterday. I'm like, how is this guy at 31 or 32, whatever he is, going for 100 yards?
angrymike: Yeah.
Deck: hurt his knee again. The guy's still out there. So I don't know.
angrymike: Yeah. Yeah, it's... I mean I wouldn't
N D: Yeah, good. Yeah.
angrymike: like hockinson i wouldn't consider hockinson's probably what the Fifth best tight end in there. Division. Wouldn't you say, maybe?
Deck: Yeah. Yeah, I would say.
angrymike: So, i mean I mean, getting him back is a big thing, but, I mean... he's not Tucker Kraft and he's not Sam Laporta. And he's not. Even Cole Komet, I don't think. or He's right in that range, I guess, with Cole Komet.
Deck: but i would I would say one thing that...
angrymike: Loveland, but...
Deck: Hawkinson is 5 -0, so that's... That's all I'm going to.
angrymike: oh i know it plus he's a plus he's a goddamn hawkeye and i love the iowa hawkeyes
Deck: Yeah.
Deck: Yeah.
N D: ah
angrymike: Sam Laporte is a Hawkeye. Caleb Johnson, they're all over the place. I love my Hawkeyes.
Deck: yeah no
N D: but But with our...
angrymike: um
N D: with With the end of this week. Obviously, the Rams sitting at 2 -2. If they win, they'll be 3 -2. But if the playoffs started today.
angrymike: Yep.
N D: The three wild card would be Green Bay, Chicago, Detroit.
Deck: Yep.
N D: That would be like.
angrymike: That's awesome.
N D: That would be a pretty cool playoffs. With those three in the...
Deck: Yeah, I think that'd be good.
angrymike: Hell yes.
N D: Yeah, that would be awesome. but Yeah.
angrymike: Yeah, and that wouldn't be the first time it happened because it used to happen in the 90s all the time.
N D: And then Chicago would end up going to Minnesota.
angrymike: You know? them.
N D: getting the W and then Chad probably wouldn't do the podcast the next day.
angrymike: Yep.
Deck: Oh, bull crap.
N D: So. Oh!
Deck: You're so full of crap.
N D: and Hey, are we going to go to that last game of the year?
angrymike: ah
Deck: If you want to.
N D: It's about tempting. it's like the The tickets are like $192, I see.
Deck: Is Josh Dobbs going to be there?
N D: I don't know
Deck: I'll i'll only go if the pastor nots in the house, man.
angrymike: but
N D: Oh, if Josh Jobs is there, I am not going.
Deck: Alright. ah
N D: Well, we could see probably Keenum and who's your backup quarter. We might see them by.
Deck: It's that guy from note.
N D: Is when still around? Who's your third stringer?
Deck: It's a It's that guy from North Dakota as our backup. And then Brasmer's the...
N D: Yeah, Wentz.
Deck: Third string.
N D: All right. Yeah. Yep.
Deck: Yeah. yeah yeah I don't know. i There is some... Yep. To me, it was funny yesterday because before the game, I was reading all the X stuff on the Packers and the Bears. and Everybody was both sides were just hammering both sides. And then all of a sudden, about halfway through, it was like.
Deck: All the Bear fans were gone. I mean, like just. Why?
N D: Well, but I mean, that's any game.
Deck: guy
N D: I mean...
angrymike: Yeah, I mean, if Green Bay was down 30 -7.
Deck: Yeah. Let's go.
angrymike: In the middle of the fourth quarter, I'd be gone too.
N D: Yeah, they'd be gone too. ah
Deck: Well, but then they started coming back and then it was like all week long. people You can't blame it on injuries. How are the Packers going to blame this loss? and blah blah blah and all of a sudden you beat her back up qb i'm like man these guys are
N D: Well, we were... There was people saying backup before.
Deck: it
N D: I mean.
Deck: I know Nolan.
N D: So I mean it wasn't like we pulled it out at halftime.
Deck: I'm not saying to you, I'm not saying I'm just those, those idiot fans that are on both sides.
N D: Okay.
Deck: I mean, it was just like.
N D: Right.
Deck: It's so funny just to read them. and It's like two days ago you were saying this and now today you're saying that. and
angrymike: Yeah. Well, you know, I'm And I'm throwing trash out there too, but you remember, i predicted I predicted the Bears to win, so I was already...
Deck: I don't know
N D: End.
Deck: Yeah.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: But it was like everything I saw. You know, we can use analysis, right? You can't predict a blowout by the Packers. who Who would have predicted that? You know what I mean?
Deck: Right, right
N D: Right.
angrymike: And Ben actually not made fun of, but. um I didn't think the defense would would step up the way they did. and You know, ah one thing for the Bears, too, is they're. They're like takeaway.
angrymike: are you Well, their their takeaways differential is is minus four this year.
N D: Oh.
angrymike: You know what I mean?
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: ah
N D: Yeah, it's really bad now going 5 -0 yesterday.
angrymike: And the.
angrymike: Yeah, and the Packers are plus three. So, you know, they're starting Green Bay last year, couldn't get an interception to save their life.
N D: no
angrymike: They had. three yesterday. So. it it just kind of shows that's a little lucky too you know what i mean
N D: Yep.
angrymike: um But if you...
N D: We might catch them next week with Tua. If Tua's starting, we might be able to get five interceptions on Tua.
angrymike: Oh God, yeah. You might.
Deck: What?
N D: that That poor guy came out.
angrymike: The problem is... The problem is he may not throw the ball.
N D: well
angrymike: Bijan is that freaking good.
N D: No, that's true.
angrymike: I mean, the Bears are going to have to stop the run.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: and
N D: Yep.
angrymike: If we had Bijan yesterday playing for the Packers, I think he would have had 150 yards yesterday.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: he That dude's legit.
Deck: Bye.
angrymike: He's the best running back in the NFL, I think.
N D: but unfortunately injuries happen. I mean, I even asked Chad before we went on, I said,
angrymike: I do.
N D: Okay, I said, let's turn the tables. I said, if Jordan Love isn't there. And it's their backup. even if we're still playing our backup. it's going to be a ah pretty decent game.
Deck: oh i agree i would i agree on that yeah oh absolutely Absolutely.
angrymike: Oh yeah.
N D: You know? Yeah.
Deck: stuff
angrymike: Dude, I think Green Bay would have lost if Tyrod Taylor had to play that whole game.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: Because Green Bay doesn't have the running game that the Bears do. That's why I thought the Bears would win. They had a clear advantage with the offensive line. They have good running backs, but I also think I thought Monongahe was going to play when we we were talking to Believes last week.
angrymike: um But the Bears, I mean, when you're rushing for 200 to 300 yards every game, it doesn't matter who your quarterback is. For Green Bay. If. love goes down.
angrymike: We have running backs running for 30 yards a game and that's a big difference, you know? So that's why I think the barriers are kind of built.
Deck: Well, let's look at...
angrymike: built to last and and Green Bay needs. quarterbacks and deep throws. And it is what it is.
Deck: would I would say for my Vikes yesterday, they had two backup linemen in there because their shot wasn't playing and Jackson's out for the year. and Still, Jones ran for 100 -plus yards, man.
angrymike: Yep.
Deck: They they seemed to. They understand. I don't know. I think our lines are good.
angrymike: Oh yeah.
Deck: i think you're Mike, I think with your new additions, I think they're going to be able to keep them fresh and keep things going. And all that sort of thing. and And we already knew about the Bears line. We knew that they were good. I, again, Nolan said it last, you said it too, Mike, that, you know, this is October, not a big deal.
Deck: Well, it's kind of a big deal, but it's not like a big, big deal. Hey, I wanted to ask you, what did you ever say to Bear Force One here? Did you read that Twitter respond he did or not? Mike.
angrymike: but which Which one was that? I didn't...
Deck: He said, ah angry Mike is a scared little kid that likes to block people because he can't handle any amount of shit talk like the scared loser he is.
angrymike: I didn't i didn't read it.
angrymike: ah
Deck: So. That's from Bear Force One.
angrymike: ah I'll come back to that.
Deck: Huh? it
angrymike: I'll come back to that a little bit later. but Usually only black people, usually only black people, if one, they get.
Deck: Oh, okay.
angrymike: they get personal and nasty. i I just don't have any, I don't have any room in my life for stuff like that. But if people want to give me crap.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: Trust me. You guys follow me. I...
Deck: Oh yeah.
angrymike: i Take it at ease.
N D: Yep.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: I had guys yesterday come at me and it's just like, you know what, as long as you don't.
Deck: he must
angrymike: insult me. You know. In a derogatory way, i I'll tend to. I'll tend to you know let you follow me a little bit more. but If not... I'm on there to engage. I'm not in there to.
angrymike: be called derogatory names.
Deck: So is that what he did?
angrymike: Even though maybe I deserve it sometimes.
N D: Yeah, I...
angrymike: but
Deck: Wow.
N D: I've got a few names called at me. It's just like, geez, I had a rip. I don't know if you're... One of him, he's a...
angrymike: Oh yeah yeah.
N D: Rip in Wisconsin.
angrymike: Yep.
N D: Yeah, he went off on me last night and had some guy that looks like he's he's in a suit.
angrymike: Yep. Yeah.
N D: He looks like he's about 11 years old. He went off on me on every type of word there was. It's like, wow, are those allowed on X?
Deck: Yeah.
N D: Ha ha. I don't know.
angrymike: Yep.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: yeah you'll you'll have to you'll up since i blocked him you'll have to you'll have to send me it
Deck: Okay, I will.
angrymike: But...
Deck: Yeah, he...
angrymike: Because once I block him, I can't see what he posts.
Deck: Yes. so he he sent me a screenshot of your
angrymike: But.
Deck: ah of your... x profile and says angry mike has blocked you so you're afraid of him You're afraid of a bear for a swan. So you can you can tell us that's why.
N D: Ah. Ha ha.
Deck: I think maybe it's a better story offline than what it is.
angrymike: Yeah.
angrymike: Oh, I could care less. I've had I used the word cope yesterday and I had somebody kind of go after me for being unintelligent.
Deck: Go on.
angrymike: because I use the word cope and I'm i'm just like, what?
N D: Oh, I've seen that one, yeah.
angrymike: i'm like why are you judging me are you god i mean it did gets to a point where i used a word i mean
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: And I don't think I was rude. I think at the end of it I said, you know, it's one game. you know let's move on to the next one you know and it was just
Deck: Yeah.
N D: I was told I had low IQ last night.
angrymike: Some tips.
N D: I...
Deck: Wow You could have told that call.
N D: Questioned a ah guy with...
Deck: it
N D: ah He's a weatherman. And I said, stick the weather. He said, low IQ.
Deck: ah
N D: I was like.
angrymike: yeah
N D: All right. But I mean. Yeah, I was just like.
angrymike: Well, you know
N D: When you make comments, it's like I don't follow any of these people.
angrymike: Yeah.
N D: But they're all like, they're all showing up because it's like. Talk with Green Bay people, I must, more than anything. but It's pretty funny.
angrymike: That's all. it's all algorithm you know i don't get i don't get many viking fans come after me but You know, it's.
N D: Until it's Viking week.
angrymike: i do post i do post about the pairs a lot because i think it's some of the material i have is You know, it's funny because I post it, but... um i think a lot of people get a nerve on it, but it's just like the Cairo Santos tripping.
angrymike: golden. You know what I mean?
N D: Yeah.
Deck: Oh, wow.
angrymike: If you add the beginning part, that's where you get the engagement from, you know, and that's why I do some of that stuff.
Deck: Yeah. Right. right
angrymike: But if the people want the real angry Mike, they can listen to the pod and. and so understand i'm pretty rational and and don't take myself too seriously but you just think people just Yep.
N D: There we go.
angrymike: get wound up and sometimes it's fun to just sit back and light a fire you know and then sit back and watch it burn
N D: Oh, yeah. You light the fire and let it go.
angrymike: my sister My sister would always do that to me.
N D: Yep.
Deck: Yeah.
N D: Yep.
angrymike: She'd pick on me, pick on me, pick on me until I got upset, and then she'd sit back and laugh at me.
Deck: Well, I think
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: So.
Deck: I think you know how the relationship between me and Nolan goes now, Mike. i just keep poking the bear a little bit.
angrymike: Oh yeah. You guys are great though.
Deck: A little bit more.
N D: We can vacation together and we can. We're good.
angrymike: Yeah, you guys are great.
N D: But I was. I was going to ask the producer of of our X account, top four.
angrymike: Yeah.
N D: NFC North studs for the week. You didn't put Jefferson in there.
Deck: yeah
N D: You put Deandre Swift. Are you just trying to be nice to me or.
Deck: No, one one from each team. ah Just put one from each team in there.
N D: Oh, okay.
Deck: That's what I wanted to do, is to say the four the four best players from each team.
N D: Okay.
N D: I thought maybe you were lighting that fire and I thought, all right, well.
Deck: Jordan Wells.
Deck: No, no, no. God, I would do it.
N D: But yeah, Jefferson had a nice catch. Triple teamed in the in the corner of the end zone.
Deck: Man.
N D: and That was a pretty good catch.
Deck: Yeah.
N D: Yeah.
Deck: ah He couldn't have been more open, I don't think. I don't know. I mean, it was pretty good. Anyway, so I wanted another one that I read that's Packer fans beat a backup QB and now show up.
Deck: Welcome back to the conversation. We'll see how long you stay. baha ah ah
angrymike: ah
Deck: so
angrymike: i like how I like how everybody, like...
N D: Okay.
Deck: This was.
angrymike: everybody like Pounds on like. they said this and they said that it's like who's they first off and why are you putting it in my stuff because i didn't say anything
Deck: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Deck: Right.
angrymike: And it's usually those fans that I do.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: people get on me too it's like oh you talk about how many followers you have and all that stuff and i because i always like it's always those people like 32 followers that have the nastiest stuff that they say so it's like if it's a bear fan and he has like 80 followers i i pretty much know i probably don't want to interact with them
Deck: Yeah.
N D: Yeah.
Deck: That's good.
angrymike: But it's funny. Nonetheless, ah you try not to take it too seriously. and its A lot of it is just fun and and lighting a fire and sitting back and watching it. but You know?
N D: Yeah. Just wait until the Bears move to Indiana.
angrymike: Like...
N D: Then it's really going to get ugly on X.
Deck: Oh my God.
angrymike: Yeah, well I heard Hammond smells like a dirty diaper, so that's gonna be
N D: ah
angrymike: and And not a pee diaper, one filled with crap. So that should be that should be fun.
N D: Nice. Yep.
angrymike: Um. Lions game. Probably should touch on that a little bit quick. I mean, it's the typical Lions win, right? they They score a ton of points. Their defense gave up 21, but they weren't playing a real.
Deck: Yep.
angrymike: a real good team at all. Um,
Deck: No. Cardinals are...
angrymike: But. Their schedule's really easy and jerk.
Deck: Cardinals are the Cardinals.
angrymike: yeah Jared Goff. I mean. 12 touchdowns, zero picks. I think he's leading the league in yards. Now, I only know that because I looked up Jordan loves. um jordan loves second Um,
angrymike: Bud. Jared Goff, I mean, if you can pressure Jared Goff, you can beat the Lions easily and then if he can score enough points. So that's why I'm not too incredibly worried about the Lions yet. uh,
angrymike: The green Bay goes up there in a couple of weeks and I don't think Parsons is going to be back yet. So that's why I think the lions could possibly get them. at Ford Field. but you know.
Deck: Okay.
angrymike: We all know what.
Deck: All right. Well.
angrymike: Micah Parsons done the Lions. the two games last year. So I'm pretty sure Penny Sewell's excited to not have to face him. But we'll see how it goes.
Deck: All right. Alright. so let's let's chat quick Vikings, playoffs or no?
Deck: Nolan.
angrymike: Yes. Yeah. they did They'd have to have an epic failure.
N D: I'll tell you in three weeks. Yeah, I know.
Deck: No, come on, come on.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: They'd have to have an epic failure.
N D: they would
angrymike: i mean
N D: Well, ah now, okay, let's go back to that. Okay, so the last time they started 5 -0.
Deck: i'm going to ask about all I'm going to ask about all four teams.
N D: I know.
Deck: So.
N D: I know. I'm explaining here. Okay.
Deck: Okay.
N D: So. Last time they went 5 -0, they finished... 12 and 5. Made the playoffs, lost in the wild card. The previous time. They started 5 -0. They finished 8 -8 and missed the playoffs.
N D: With their schedule coming up. It might not be seven in a row, but there are some juggernauts that. That could dismantle this Vikings defense. It's the Buffalo Bills. It's the San Francisco 49ers.
N D: ah Detroit's got an eye. I mean. I don't know. You got some tough games coming up, too. I mean, it could easily go south.
Deck: That's the longest no answer I've heard in a long time, buddy.
N D: We've seen that in the past.
Deck: Come on. if' Yes.
N D: Yeah.
Deck: Or no.
N D: No.
Deck: No. Okay. Mike, you say yes.
angrymike: Well, they're 5 -0. I mean, they they would have to have an epic collapse. for and And I don't even know because the...
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: the The Vikings are like such a good sum of their all their parts.
Deck: mm -hmm
angrymike: I think the only way they can miss the playoffs is if like. Justin Jefferson's out for the year. Because I think that would probably paralyze their offense.
Deck: And if we get. Yep, and if we get down to Max Boesler.
angrymike: But I don't see that happening. so
Deck: Yep. If Max Brosmers are starting quarterback, then I would say no, but I think the Vikes are going to the playoffs.
angrymike: Yeah.
Deck: All right, Green Bay, yes or no?
angrymike: Yeah, they got a they got a hell of a they got a hell of they got a hell of a buffer with 5 -0. I'll put it that way.
Deck: That's right. Yeah. Green Bay, I'm going to say yes. They're going.
Deck: Nolan?
angrymike: Nolan, what you got?
N D: Um... Yeah. I think they'll be in.
Deck: Okay.
angrymike: Yeah, I think Green i think green Bay is going to make it just because they get. they get parsons back here in a couple of weeks and if green bay can beat the cowboys and and sit at four and two
N D: Yep.
angrymike: I think they're going to be tough. um Their secondary is playing great too. So I think. They get a chance to get in, but I think it's gonna be like a 10 and 7 It's not gonna be 11 and 6 or anything like that
Deck: okay
angrymike: There'll be a wild card.
Deck: All right Well, let's go to Detroit. They're going to make the playoffs. Mike you're first
angrymike: i don't think they I don't think they are. I think their defense is just that bad. And. They've been relatively healthy on offense. so i you know, if this is the best version of the lions, the only problem is they're. Their schedule is so damn easy.
Deck: Their schedule is easy, but I'm with you on that.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: um But.
Deck: I'm up with with you on that defense. I think all three of our all three of our loved teams will beat them. easily. Easily.
angrymike: Yep. I agree. I agree. If you can score with them. That's why I think the Bears. The Bears and the Packers can outscore them or stay with them, and their defenses are both better.
angrymike: Uh, then the lions, um, And then the Vikings, I mean... I think Brian Flores can keep. their offense under control. and then the Vikings can score enough. I think they're the most fatally flawed team out of out of the four.
Deck: i would agree nolan your thoughts they're gonna make it or you're still under Because you and I both...
N D: ah
Deck: picked them to win the division didn't we i think if i if i remember right
N D: Yeah. We did, yeah. Their defense and... Dan Campbell will keep them out of the playoffs, I think. so i'm gonna say no on them
Deck: Okay, so we got all three nose on the Lions that's because we don't like the Lions and that's okay so uh up And then our... Final one, Chicago. I'm going to say, yeah, they'll make the playoffs.
N D: The only reason I probably said Detroit's not going to make the playoffs because. Bears have to have a spot in there to make the playoffs.
angrymike: Ha ha.
N D: I'm thinking Chicago's going to make it. This was a bump in the road, a big bump. um they've They've had stuff figured out. i If they get Williams back, they get Menon guy back. If they stay healthy. It's kind of like the Packers. If Jordan Love stays healthy, they make the playoffs.
N D: If Caleb Williams comes back and stays as the quarterback through 17 games.
angrymike: Yep.
N D: I don't see why they they don't. Make a wild card if not. I'll run at the division.
Deck: Okay, so you're saying that this game will
angrymike: Yep. I think the Bears.
Deck: Yep. Go ahead, Mike. Sorry.
angrymike: Yeah, I think the Bears make it too. i I think once they get Caleb Williams back, they'll find a groove. and I think there'll be. They'll be where they need to be but uh The Vikings being 5 -0, I think, unless something catastrophic happens. Bad happens, I think. The Packers and Bears and Lions are fighting over a wild card spot.
angrymike: Dude.
N D: So for the... For all of us, I think we... We've... Kind of put... Each of us put in three of our division teams into the playoffs.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: Yep.
Deck: Yep.
N D: So that leaves one spot open. Who's going to get in it? Is it going to be the Rams, Seattle? Anybody, it's Carolina and Atlanta.
angrymike: I think it's
N D: Are they going to be fighting for a wild card?
angrymike: Well, and i no, I think. The... I mean, the NFC East is going to end up. Pevenov. a ah team win the division with a losing record. I think the i think the South isn't going to be good enough.
N D: Yeah.
N D: Got the same way.
angrymike: Yeah, so I think You know, it it depends on the the Rams. i't I wasn't big on the Rams to start the season. I was kind of like, you know, whenever you put a dream team together, they're usually a nightmare.
angrymike: um, playing and You know, i I thought they'd be worse because there's too many stars on that team. and they've kind of showed that i mean they can get garrett and donald back but both of them are kind of
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: You know, Donald coming back from retirement and hasn't been the same and then... Myles Garrett, whos who says he's going to come back and his knee is going to be good.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: so I think they can be had and Puka Nakua has been in and out of the lineup too.
Deck: I've...
angrymike: So.
Deck: Yeah, I would think. i know i think seattle will grab that last spot i i don't think the rams will make it Just on what Mike said, you know.
angrymike: No.
Deck: Donald coming back, I thought.
angrymike: Yep.
Deck: I mean, he didn't play last game, right? They still won it. They came back and won it at the end. but He got hurt, you know.
angrymike: Yeah. Yeah.
Deck: It's the hammies. San Fran, they lost Debo Samuel again. His hammy went out. Is this the year of the hammy? I don't know.
angrymike: Yeah.
Deck: It seems like everybody's pulling hands.
N D: There's a lot of hamstrings.
angrymike: Well...
N D: I think the Bears lost three guys on Saturday to hamstrings.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: Yeah, and and Green Bay keeps losing guys to Achilles.
Deck: Right. yeah
N D: So.
angrymike: So it's like Achilles and hamstrings this year.
N D: Yeah.
Deck: Yeah. Yeah.
N D: Yep.
Deck: yeah Guys like us, we go to work the next day.
angrymike: So.
N D: I tweaked my hamstring this weekend, but I'm okay.
angrymike: Well,
Deck: Yeah.
N D: I'm i'm at work.
Deck: Yeah.
N D: yeah
Deck: Yeah, we go to work the next day.
angrymike: ah Dude, I was standing. I was standing all day yesterday and I had to make the. you know I didn't get home until 11 .30 last night you know from the Packers game. My voice is still a little rough from... screaming the entire game, but.
angrymike: Um. You know, it it is what it is. I had to suffer through it, and my calves are a little tight from standing. on concrete.
N D: ah
Deck: yeah Oh, you poor guy.
N D: There you go.
angrymike: So.
Deck: You poor guy.
angrymike: We are what we are. but I know Well, anyway, I...
Deck: Hanging out in Lambeau Field, having a beer. and So. Hey, ive got how many Bears fans was there?
N D: So can we ask Mike? Oh.
Deck: How many Bears fans would you say? 20 % in Lambeau of Bears fans or no?
angrymike: yeah coming in Yeah, it was about 20 % to 25%. i thought there was going to be more because when you go to like the areas around lambo Like, I usually don't go to the Titletown District or get my picture taken in front of, you know, the Curly Lambeau and Vince Lombardi statues because I've done it before.
Deck: Yep.
angrymike: So I think you see more. opposing fans in those areas because it's kind of the landmarks to go see if it's your first time there so I thought there was going to be a lot more but then once I got in there it it felt the majority Packers it was probably 75 -25 and you could really hear the Bears still suck in the fourth quarter is pretty awesome.
Deck: Let's go. No cap.
Deck: Okay.
N D: ah
Deck: All right. there you go sorry nolan i jumped over you there but you had a question
angrymike: And how much crap the... and that and how much And how much crap the Bear fans have given us Packer fans the last nine months, they they deserved it. so we're
N D: There you go.
Deck: I would, I would, yeah.
N D: Yep.
angrymike: We're happy about that.
Deck: you got good What were you going to say, Nolan, before I cut you off? Sorry. Just a little different on my computer, today sorry so I'm sorry.
N D: I don't remember, but it it was It was probably nothing too crazy. but No.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: ah
N D: We're good. We're ready for next week. Bears have Atlanta.
angrymike: We are.
N D: Green Bay has. detro or ah da Dallas and the Vikings have the bye week.
angrymike: Cowboys. Yeah.

Deck: Nobody cares, do they? Really? and
angrymike: who who's the bottom who's the bottom Who's the bottom feeder team in the NFL? That's probably who they're playing next week.

Deck: So... i got to I got to watch the end of that Jacksonville.
N D: And Thursday night should be a good one.
angrymike: So.
Deck: Yeah, I got to watch the end of the Jacksonville Philly game. I thought that was pretty cool. He runs that kick back so far, and then they kick a field goal to win it. that was That was alright. You guys probably didn't see that
N D: I remember what I was gonna ask.
Deck: Okay.
N D: I was going to ask Mike where you were at. You got Lambeau leaped. You don't need to tell us, but what does a ticket like that cost at Lambeau Field? down on that bottom. What? Six, seven rows.
angrymike: So. So I... We're season ticket holders with our friends. so
N D: Okay.
angrymike: We paid $155. proceed.
N D: Wow.
angrymike: But... Secondary, that seat was good. I asked the guy in front of me who's in the front row. I'm in the second row. I asked the guy, how much do you pay for your seat? He said $850 each.
N D: yeah
Deck: Was that the Bears fan guy or for him and his son each?
angrymike: For him and his son.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: each. Yes, the Bear fan guy.
N D: You didn't tell them what you paid, did you?
angrymike: Yep. Yep, each.
N D: were
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: Of course I did. Of course I did. I want him to understand. how much he got ripped off.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: To watch his team lose 30 -7. I mean, but that's...
Deck: Yes sir.
angrymike: I also paid to go. I also paid to go to London, you know, four years ago. I went to see the Giants -Packers London game, and I thought there's no freaking way Green Bay's going to lose, and I spent thousands of dollars to go over there and watch them lose and watch.
N D: Yeah.
angrymike: Rodgers break his thumb.
N D: Okay.
angrymike: So. you know it is what it is and you you always take that gamble when you go but you always remember it
N D: Yeah.
Deck: Yeah.
angrymike: you know whether it's good or bad
N D: Well, I know the cheapest The cheapest tickets that I saw on Saturday night in Lambeau was like. $400, and that was nosebleeds.
angrymike: Yeah.
N D: So...
angrymike: Yep.
N D: you either got to know somebody know a season ticket holder Obviously.
Deck: Right.
N D: If you want to get it, even at Soldier Field, it's like my boy wants to go to Soldier Field.
angrymike: Yep.
N D: I'm like. Cheapest tickets are like 500 bucks right now for the Packer game and the Viking game. so
angrymike: Yeah.
N D: I don't know
angrymike: Love. Well, if he ever wants to go to Lambeau, I got Vikings tickets. so Same seats. We have to talk.
N D: That was an off -point.
angrymike: We have to talk offline.
N D: I don't know if I'd want to watch a green Bay in Minnesota play, but.
angrymike: Okay.
Deck: one
angrymike: Well, like I said, you gotta take the gamble, right? It could be something that you know, i You watched Randy Moss throw, you know. Catch three touchdowns and for 160 yards back in 1998.
N D: That's true.
angrymike: I had to sit through that crap. So it's a gamble.
N D: Wow.
angrymike: you know, but
Deck: Yeah. Yeah.
angrymike: Man, if they win. They win. It's a lifetime you know memory. I went to the NFC title game in Chicago. when the Packers played, and I'll never forget that.
N D: Yep.
angrymike: But it was a big gamble.
N D: Yep. I got the tickets for Chad and I in that. That barn burner at the ah U .S. Bank when it was 1210 site.
angrymike: Yeah.
N D: Chad's buying the next tickets.
Deck: Yeah. Okay.

N D: and And I will tell you, Mike.
angrymike: I'm excited about it.
N D: it This kind of felt like a counseling session for me. So if you want to charge me, that's fine.
Deck: You are.
N D: I'm feeling a little bit better.
angrymike: Yeah.
