The Packers’ story about Brandon McManus isn’t lining up

You might have missed it, but during the Monday Night Football broadcast, ESPN’s crew claimed that Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus said that this week was the first time he’s been “semi-healthy” since his quad injury first occurred.

Packers-Eagles Final Score: Another dismal offensive display

The wheels have officially fallen off the Green Bay Packers’ 2025 season. A 5-3-1 record is nothing to scoff at, at least in theory, but it is the way in which the Packers have lost their last two games — all three of their losses, in fact — that reveal massive questions that this team […]
