The Green Bay Packers fell to 3-2 with an embarrassing collapse against the New York Giants in London. After leading the whole game, the Packers lost 27-22 after the offense was shutout in the second half. Make no mistake, the defense did them no favors either. In fact, it could be argued that for the first time in years, the Packers special teams was Green Bay’s best unit in this game. With the Minnesota Vikings’ victory over the Chicago Bears on Sunday, the Packers are now one game out of first place in the NFC North. Of course, it is…

The Green Bay Packers lost a frustrating game in London to the New York Giants. After scoring 20 points in the first half, the Giants shutout the Packers offense in the second half. There are a variety of reasons for this, and one could point to abandoning the run game as the leading one. However, whenever the Packers lose a game, Aaron Rodgers and others will be asked if they need to add another wide receiver, namely Odell Beckham Jr. The Pro Bowl wide receiver has long been linked to the Packers, and Rodgers has expressed his admiration for OBJ…

The Green Bay Packers could not do enough to get the win over the New York Giants in London, falling 27-22. At one point, they were up 20-10 and looked to be in control of the game. Unfortunately, the defense allowed far too many big plays and the Giants shutout the offense in the second half. It was truly a tale of two halves, and not a good story for the Packers. Three Studs Aaron Rodgers Aaron Rodgers struggled throwing deep, but was still methodical in the short game. If Matt LaFleur can convince him to lay off throwing deep,…

The Green Bay Packers are in the midst of their first ever international game. A surprising revelation on the game’s opening kick off was that rookie Christian Watson was the Packers’ kick returner. That role had belonged to Amari Rodgers up until Week Five. Rodgers, though, remained the Packers’ punt returner. One has to wonder how long he will that job, too. After fair catching the first Giants’ punt, he got the chance to return the second one. He fumbled it, adding to fans’ on-going frustration with the second-year wide receiver. Luckily, the Packers recovered the fumble; but fans took…

The Milwaukee Brewers will almost certainly have a different catching battery in 2023. Omar Narvaez is going to be a free agent and the catcher everyone believed would spend the season as his backup, Pedro Severino, has decided to test the free agency waters again. Severino was originally signed by the Brewers in November of 2021 to backup 2021 All-Star Omar Narvaez. He got off to a torrid start in spring training, hitting well over .300 and displaying so power at the plate. Unfortunately, he tested positive for a banned substance and was suspended for 80 games. As a result…

The Milwaukee Bucks dropped their second consecutive preseason game on Thursday afternoon. This loss, though, was very different than their one to the Memphis Grizzlies last week. For one, Giannis Antetokounmpo played in this contest. However, the drastic difference was the venue: the United Arab Emirates. For the first time ever, the NBA played a game in the Middle East. This game was held at the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. Jevon Carter Fans of the Milwaukee Bucks were ecstatic when the team brought back veteran point guard Jevon Carter. “Bull Dog” was not used as much as he probably…

If one were to ask any fan of the Green Bay Packers who the team’s leading wide receiver would be after four games, one would have likely received a variety of answers. Perhaps they would have answered Allen Lazard, who was widely expected to be the team’s number one wide receiver. Or maybe they would have said Sammy Watkins, who signed with the Packers as a free agent. As it turns out, it is neither of them. Nor is it rookie wide receiver Christian Watson, whom the Packers traded up to take in the 2022 NFL Draft. It is, in…

Green Bay Packers legend Gilbert Brown joins the Wisconsin Sports Heroics podcast CheeseDads Sports every Tuesday night. This show, called The Graveyard Shift with Gilbert Brown, is a great way for Packers’ fans to get to known the Gravedigger on a more personal level. In addition, Brown offers valuable insight to how the Packers are playing and shares tidbits that only a former NFL player would know. This last episode was no exception, as Brown recapped the Packers victory over the Patriots and previewed the upcoming game in London against the Giants. Gilbert Brown Does Not Just Stick to Packers…

There is an old saying, “There are three certainties in life: death, taxes, and the Milwaukee Brewers disappointing their fans.” Alright, well maybe that is not exactly how the saying goes, but it sure feels that way for Brewers fans. After getting off to the best 50-game start in franchise history (32-18), the Brewers completely fell apart, traded away their All-Star closer, failed to score four runs in almost half their games, and missed the playoffs for the first time since 2017. If one wants a bright side, the team will finish with a winning record. There was a time where…

His tenure with the Green Bay Packers may not have included any regular season games, but Blake Bortles was with the team for a few months during an interesting time in the team’s recent history. With Aaron Rodgers in the midst of a public feud with the Packers’ front office, the team signed Bortles as an extra training camp arm and a possible backup to Jordan Love. Bortles was with the Packers from May 24 to July 27 in 2021. Green Bay released him when they decided to keep Kurt Benkert as their third-string and practice squad quarterback. After the…
