Nathaniel Hackett takes Cardinals OC job for Mike LaFleur

Earlier this offseason, former Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett, who served as a defensive analyst for the team in 2025, agreed to become the quarterbacks coach of the Miami Dolphins, which was taken over by former Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley. Now, there will be a pivot in Hackett’s career, as he’s accepted […]

Brian Gutekunst says Packers don’t need wholesale changes at cornerback

Today, Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst took the podium for the first time since the post-Micah Parsons trade press conference. Among other things, Gutekunst stated that scouts will be flying back to Green Bay on Wednesday, and they will begin draft meetings starting tomorrow. If you missed any of Gutekunst’s press conference, we’re […]

Steelers get trade price for Kyler Murray

For yet another offseason, the Pittsburgh Steelers have a big question mark at the quarterback position. With Aaron Rodgers’ future up in the air, the only other two quarterbacks under contract for the Steelers are Mason Rudolph and Will Howard. Should Rodgers decide that his playing days are over, or that he would like to […]

Brian Gutekunst Press Conference Discussion Thread

I don’t think we’ve ever had a press conference discussion thread before, but I figure some of you will be interested to hear Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst’s talk with the media — if you have the time to watch it midday on a Wednesday. This is the first time that Gutekunst has […]

Big Ten Football: 2025 Postseason Review of Negative Play Rates

Using the charting data from every Big Ten football game in the 2025-26 season, excluding garbage time and games against FCS opponents, we can make granular comparisons of how each team performed. The strongest correlation with scoring strength that survives regardless of opponent quality — that is, what teams bring with them into the postseason […]

Wednesday Cheese Curds: Brian Gutekunst ready to face questions

The “will they/won’t they/should they” dance over Matt LaFleur’s contract extension last month soaked up just about all of the available discourse resources among Packers watchers. But that wasn’t the only new deal that got done: in addition to LaFleur, general manager Brian Gutekunst also got a new deal, as did cap savant Russ Ball. […]

Packers Draft: An early look at the 2026 center class

When it comes to draft rankings, I think it’s important to evaluate the evaluator. To me, there’s no one in the business doing better work on offensive linemen than Brandon Thorn, who currently drops his draft prospect rankings on Bleacher Report as part of their B/R NFL Scouting Dept. series. Thorn, whom I have previously […]

Arizona Cardinals introduce Mike LaFleur as new head coach

The Arizona Cardinals introduced their newest new head coach, Mike LaFleur at an introductory press conference. LaFleur was flanked by his family, and his brother, Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur. It was a great intro and a good change up from what was the Jonathan Gannon era, where the show of emotion was […]

Bears to interview Packers QB coach target for OC vacancy

So far, the Green Bay Packers have reportedly set up only one interview for their quarterback coaching vacancy, which was left open when Sean Mannion took the Philadelphia Eagles’ offensive coordinator job. The coach, a Wisconsin native, is former Arizona Cardinals pass game coordinator Connor Senger, who received a promotion every year under Jonathan Gannon, […]

Tuesday Cheese Curds: Matthew Golden ready for big second season

The Packers broke a two-decade streak when they picked Matthew Golden in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft. An exciting and explosive player in college, Golden looked like a great addition to a Packers offense that was already full of playmakers. And then that stable of playmakers made it hard for Golden to […]

Dolphins retain two defensive assistants – The Splash Zone 2/3/26

Jeff Hafley has been busy assembling his coaching staff with the latest news reporting he will retain two defensive assistants that were on staff with the Miami Dolphins last year. Linebackers coach Joe Barry will be sticking around and funny enough, Barry was replaced by Hafley when the Green Bay Packers decided to make a […]

Packers GM Brian Gutekunst to hold press conference on Wednesday

It’s not often that Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst speaks to the media. Last year, he held one of his few media obligations, his end-of-year press conference, on January 17th. Obviously, this year’s edition has been pushed weeks later, in part because the team only officially announced his extension (along with the extension […]

Packers Discussion: Keep, cut or trade Nate Hobbs in 2026?

I think all Green Bay Packers fans realize we’re not getting much bang for our buck from the 2025 free agent class. Usually, free agency is a bad bet. Teams just don’t allow good, healthy players to hit the open market often, especially in an era where cash spending is so much higher than the […]

Anthony Weaver leaves Miami Dolphins for Baltimore Ravens

Anthony Weaver is no longer the defensive coordinator for the Miami Dolphins after the team hired former Green Bay Packers linebackers coach Sean Duggan to be their new defensive coordinator — although newly hired head coach Jeff Hafley has stated that he will call Miami’s defensive plays. According to various reports on Monday, Weaver will […]

Packers announce Jonathan Gannon’s hiring as defensive coordinator

It’s now official. The Green Bay Packers formally announced on Monday that they have hired Jonathan Gannon as their new defensive coordinator, replacing Jeff Hafley, who left to take the job as head coach of the Miami Dolphins. Gannon was most recently the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals for the last three seasons. A […]

Packers will hire former 49ers DBs coach Daniel Bullocks, per report

The Green Bay Packers aren’t done making changes to their defensive coaching staff. Head coach Matt LaFleur and new defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon are reportedly adding another experienced position coach to the organization, one who has some indirect ties to some of his new coworkers. According to CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz, the Packers are hiring […]

Derrick Ansley brings passion, experience to Cowboys defense

Christian Parker is building out his defensive coaching staff, and on Saturday he added a big name: former Packers pass game coordinator Derrick Ansley. Ansley will serve in the same capacity in Dallas as he did in Green Bay, coaching defensive backs and coordinating the pass game. It should be noted that the Packers defense […]

Former Packers coach Sean Duggan will be Dolphins defensive coordinator

While the Miami Dolphins have been plucking away parts of the Green Bay Packers throughout the last couple of weeks, it was uncertain what the role of former Packers linebackers coach Sean Duggan would be for Jeff Hafley’s new staff. On Sunday, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported that Duggan, who was co-defensive coordinator for Hafley for […]

Dolphins to hire Packers linebackers coach as new defensive coordinator

The Miami Dolphins are officially moving on from former defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver now that all of the head coach openings around the National Football League have been filled. Sean Duggan — former Green Bay Packers linebackers coach — will reportedly get the defensive coordinator gig in South Florida. Duggan — just 32 years old […]

A play for the Packers to steal from the Seahawks

Last week, I mentioned that I like to go through offenses around the league during the week, find fun things, then work them into the Green Bay Packers playbook. With only two games last weekend – and one of them short on offense – there wasn’t a lot of film to go through. Last week, […]
