Green Bay is missing Bakhtiari and Elton Jenkins, while Aaron Jones, Christian Watson, and Jaire Alexander are questionable.

Joe Chapp kicks things off with Tyler joining live from work, which gives the show its loose, in-the-moment feel. The immediate frame is the Green Bay Packers game coming up tomorrow. Before that, though, the hosts circle back to Atlanta and what Detroit did on defense. The tone is confident and a little irritated, because the result felt dominant and the numbers backed it up. They point to B. John being held to 33 rushing yards on 10 carries and to the seven sacks as proof that Detroit controlled the day. They also keep asking whether Gibbs is being used the right way. That question does not turn into a lecture. It stays in fan language and plain football sense, with the added note that he is still only in the third game of his career. From there, the conversation turns into a longer trade-value debate. The hosts make the case that people online wildly overrate what backup quarterbacks can fetch. They say the league does not give up real receiver talent for that kind of piece unless a second- or third-round pick is attached. They treat the market as a place where every team is trying to get something for nothing. An example about Teddy Bridgewater and Zach Wilson becomes a way to laugh at bad trade logic. The show keeps coming back to the idea that the other side has an agenda too. That leads naturally into Jared Goff. The hosts argue that Goff has enough value to matter to a team that needs a quarterback. They also say Detroit would have to think hard before moving him, because his present value to the Lions is tied to what he can do right now. They describe him as serviceable and as someone who could help a team deep into a playoff run. Hendon Hooker comes up as a future possibility, but the discussion treats him as a maybe, not a finished answer. The closing stretch looks ahead to Green Bay and to a possible follow-up after the game, depending on how the result lands. Even when the show wanders into trade hypotheticals, it keeps coming back to the same Lions-fan problem: who helps now, who has real value, and what the next game actually demands.
