Three time was constant sports writer of the year Jason Wilde. Our very first guest in the history of Wilde and Towsh, which will be I'm sure a long and distinguished history. Packers, Hall of Famer, Mark Towsh. Aaron Rodgers, give us an overrun round. What number would you set for how many shows we do? Broadcasting live from the Everlight Solar Studio at ESPN Medicine. I'm gonna say it daily 52 weeks a year. I'm gonna say you do about 230. And celebrating 10 great years on ESPN Wisconsin. And then what else? No, the Towsh, uh, Towsh kind of bows out. This is Will be in Towsh, presented by fellow Windows and Doors of Wisconsin. I'm gonna say you do about 230.
And then what else? I'm gonna say you do about 230. And then what else? I'm gonna say you do about 230. It is the Thursday edition. The Whistling edition, apparently. The Game Day edition. Packers Thursday Night Football. On Amazon Prime, unless you live in the Milwaukee TV market or the Green Bay Fox City's TV market,
then you can watch it on a local station. Jason, do you think people, if it wasn't a packer game, are you less likely to watch because it's on Amazon Prime if it was on ABC? I am. I am also Jesse. I watch pretty much all the Thursday Night games if I'm home. It's tougher to watch it when you're out somewhere like either working or like at a establishment because a lot of those places don't have it. But if I'm at home, I'll turn it on. I don't, I don't find my TV to make a particularly convenient to toggle between different streaming plans. And we know if it's not convenient for you that doesn't. Yesterday wasn't convenient for me, but it was awesome. We had a great time at Sendix in Whitefish Bay edition. And the all the other stuff we do on Game Day or Friday leading into a Sunday Game edition. I'll hold the a Towsh on 94.5 ESPN Milwaukee 100.5 ESPN Madison 1430 ESPN Biverdam.
ESPNWisconsin.com the ESPN app your Alexa smart speaker streaming live video twitter facebook youtube and of course everything you need on the ESPN Wisconsin app which is free fully customizable and can be found in both the apple and android app stores. I'm Jason Woldey back in green bay from our journey to Whitefish Bay and the great hosts at Sendix. Great to see so many of our friends come out to see us. That was awesome. And it was just an awesome new facility. The it's more than just a grocery store. That's for sure. Jesse Nelson is back in the Everlight Solar ESPN Madison studios after doing a fantastic job. I don't think he even got the food he was promised when he came down yesterday which is really the only reason he came but he did a fantastic job of troubleshooting so we were able to be you know on the air and of course the man that stirs the Sendix drink as they're what did
Joe call you their influencer I like that influencer he is the Packers Hall of Famer he's Mark Towsh for Towsh good morning how are you Jesse how do I check like my Instagram live because you know Jason saying this in for obviously now better partner with Sendix for a year in some change love it the Instagram live I can't tell because I did it live like it's not like Twitter where you can kind of see oh I had this I I don't know what an influencer I think I'm gonna draw a line at helping you learn how to read your own social media account that is where I'm gonna say you're on your own pal I'll help you out here's the deal related you're on your own to and then in will the in Towsh account related you are on your own your own Instagram account Jesse here's the deal we don't have a show Instagram account there's a lot of people that are on Instagram I've been told Facebook is not what it used to be I don't know I know Jason constantly
is telling us Twitter's not what it used to be fine we don't have an Instagram I am willing to open up my Instagram no why don't you can't we like get Instagram to cancel the existing one and start a new one since we can't find those Tony Cartagena that's not let's put you see on that case instead of you I'm asking Jesse to help this is will the it's I'm not doing things personally this is more will the entire show related I'm only gonna do it with the show so come on gel new low gel no any hoot it was a ton of fun down there Jesse we did glaze you yesterday great job you did you kept us on here which is five minutes just did a glazing all the food I always know something's wrong when Jesse is like forcing us to break before 20 minutes after the first like I know something's up so I was not privy to the fact that sounds like it was not very smooth first segment
on my end sounds like the voice was a little robotic yeah so gel great job we got it done it was a grand opening of a brand new store there were a lot of festivities going on yesterday so sendix was awesome their team Tom the IT guy didn't give him a proper shout out yesterday Tom the IT guy at sendix stepped into action immediately when we needed him and he was the real I mean running wires down to us wherever we did I saw these things it was like Harry Potter he like just suddenly made an internet connection for us to plug into I'm like how did you do that it was incredible Tom the IT guy was outstanding a Joe and everybody at sendix and just Tom why and not to be a Debbie Downer but just Tom why we didn't do that at 8.45 I did not I did not ask Tom that no I don't know if you know the marching band was getting set up and he was probably doing something he was running for Instagram live and maybe he he would be a great person to hire to run your Instagram analytics all right I'll see what Tom is next to do that for you all right it in fairness by the way it fairness to Tom it was probably our job to figure out whether or not
we were properly connected before we had no not it fairness to Tom for sure it was our job yes so are we actually are we actually giving Jesse props for what he should have done earlier and are we I don't want to go down that road I know I can tell you this I am not going down that road the road I am going down was that it was a great time it was great you know our friend John Kerry and his wife Mary were there why Z was there that was exciting of course you had to rip me for not having met him at our 10th anniversary but one of the originators of jump around was in the house obviously a number of both of our friends made the trip so thank you to everyone who made that success it was a hive of activity I mean it was it was crazy like it was so much fun and everyone in the white fish Bay community was so excited at the new send extor and we were happy
to be a part of it and I got the best cut pre cut fruit that there is on the planet so I was happy about that as well and a smoothie on top of it so put a bow on sendics they're doing a pumpkin carving and I think it's this weekend because I do an Instagram live of it no but she is going to carve the pumpkin and then go inside the pumpkin wait who is she going to carve a pumpkin carver I guess she's like a renowned pumpkin carver and she fits herself inside the pumpkin as she's carving it sounds like a heck of an op like I've always wanted to go she and watch I don't know I didn't ask uh I've always wanted to these are all questions that I didn't ask well if you're gonna bring this up change them more details change sawing ice is something I want to go watch I think carving a pumpkin from inside the pumpkin would also be pretty intrigued so that's also I wonder if she has an Instagram account
okay uh you're not going to go see it but you'd like other people with no details yeah I think people in the Milwaukee area should go see it that's why I brought it up to how she'll have more details for you and how she fits herself inside of a pumpkin a little bit later isn't that the isn't that the enticing part if I tell you all of it yeah like if you go see copperfield do you want to have tell you how he does everything or do you want to go watch an amazement she is the magician of pumpkin carving so I don't know Jesse if I go to a show I want to be mesmerized I don't want to know all the answers I agree with you nothing magic is a lot fun when you don't understand what's happening I believe that Jason would not find magic to be entertaining and would only want to know how magician is doing it I'm not a fan oh no I enjoy magic actually but a few magic shows I enjoy it all I'm asking Jason would rather know who the guy is lighting the fireworks and get to know his story then watch the actual fireworks in the sky
no that's true I would like to know the story of the pumpkin carver and how she fits inside of a pumpkin how big does the pop go watch the show I love to see how side fell turns out when the show starts like what are we talking about you want to go through the process and be entertained along the way you you right you what I love to I want to watch the packer game tonight well the packers are going to win 25 to 10 oh well then we don't need to watch it what are we talking about here Jay come on now what we're talking about is a detail that you shared about the pumpkin carver that she gets inside of the pumpkin so is she a very diminutive person are there giant pumpkins being grown go find out I don't know how you can find out of a pumpkin but I can't wait for them to have the chainsaw ice carvers are on the holiday season okay Jason explain to me okay explain to me the difference of us previewing a packer game and I say boy they're running back is really explosive I
don't know how many yards he's gonna have we probably should watch tell me the difference between what I just did with sendix pumpkin carving and what we're gonna do with the packers falcons because the I if you previewed it what the bean yesterday your bowly stuff all right okay thank you if you preview the the packers game you still have seen a running back say take a hand off and run the football have tell me how many times you've seen a pumpkin carver because we've all seen pumpkin carvers or we've been pumpkin carvers ourselves go inside of a pumpkin which is how you build this pumpkin carving savants that will be at sendix sometime this weekend I am just simply curious not about our artistry because I am sure the artistry will be amazing and yes that is what you be going for but you did say that she is inside the pumpkin which seems like an unlikely scenario
that I picked my interest that is all it also peaks my interest of the packers so it's so it's very similar is what I'm saying yeah without being a jerk completely similar no without being a jerk there would be this would be like having a running back who could fly I don't know how he yards he would have on price picks but I certainly would like to see how he flies over the opposing defense new definition of the air raid that's true hey Taoist is Michael penics gonna carve up the packers defense tonight god I I almost have to go back and change my headline now with all this pumpkin talk no he's not and I don't think anybody I'm actually this sounds crazy crazy I'm actually more intrigued to see Atlanta than green Bayes offense tonight what I know that sounds crazy no I am
because our defense has been really good they stink are they gonna be as stinky poo pooey as they've been and as our defense gonna suffocate them I'm more intrigued by that angle I'm almost always more intrigued how is our offense gonna do against their defense that's usually where my head's at sure not tonight tonight it's much more is our defense this good and how can all that talent be on that group and it can't get a red zone appearance through two weeks that I know we're gonna do the preview later that to me is the intriguing part of tonight's game youtube commenters wondering if this person is Cinderella yeah obviously rides in a pumpkin oh yeah oh just wait Cinderella is a pumpkin rider oh my god yes the the carriage into the carriage isn't Cinderella the glass slipper where she goes to the ball also Cinderella yes she goes home but she rides a pumpkin no no no
what am I missing here she goes to the ball they turn the pumpkin into the carriage so that she can go to the ball because you know she's like the servant girl and then she gets all the the nice lady makes there's somebody mean isn't she dating somebody mean and then she turns to sure I don't think you know anything she's been doing somebody mean isn't she at the ball with some jerk and then she kisses a frog or something no is that a different who's that Cinderella teaches you that material things matter because she has nothing when she's the servant girl with the wicked stepsisters and then she gets a fairy godmother who gives her a bunch of nice stuff so she can go to the ball and then she meets a prince and the prince falls in love with it I don't think that's the takeaway she also does not kiss a frog that's another story all right we need to get ready for Packers Falcons Taush is very intrigued to watch the Falcons offense
I am intrigued to see what the Packers offensive line looks like and if Janger Burton is part of the starting line up or not as the Packers ruled out Aaron Banks yesterday after saying earlier in the week that he would be a game time decision apparently that decision on his availability was reached even sooner we spent a lot of time yesterday talk with Brian Bologna about the offensive line we'll talk a little more about that coming up that is probably the biggest question mark heading into this game unless of course you are very curious about the Michael Penex led offense of the Atlanta Falcons and whether they will make their first trip inside the red zone they are last in the league in a variety of categories including scoring averaging eight points of game after scoring 13 points they did score a touchdown against the Steelers it was a 23 yard touchdown by B. Jean Robinson so they still have not set foot inside the 20 yard line of their
opponents for an actual I still can't believe we lost to what was the name of that quarterback I thought we were going to sign him and he was going to be the real deal when we lost to the Falcons couple years ago Taylor Heinecke is he honest no it wasn't Heinecke it's the dude from Cincinnati the guy that was starting for the Ritter oh Ritter Desmond Ritter and I think we signed him last year and he was going to be the backup and all this other stuff and we lost to the Falcons down there oh is that two or three years ago yeah I think it's three years ago thank you right maybe I need to I just am looking at this and thinking Atlanta I don't know how their offense could be this bad it just tells you how important quarterback is so we'll see if if bringing Pennix back probably earlier than they wanted because they had no choice how that's all going to shake itself out let's get ready for the game we'll have all kinds of our normal game day or Friday if it's a Sunday game preview segments coming up including that man versus machine headline process that we've
begun plus we will do we want to hear from if I can secure the pumpkin carver absolutely do we want her on air absolutely Monday okay how does she get inside the obviously we're not going to spend a full segment talking about pumpkin carving on a day of a game clearly not a crazy talk um maybe you can get someone from pillow windows and doors of Wisconsin too that'd be great we love them we definitely can do that as well no two homes are exactly like so why would every window indoor solution be the same at pillow windows and doors in Wisconsin premium quality doesn't come in just one price pillow offers gorgeous high quality and customizable solutions for every unique situation quality doesn't have to mean one size fits all it means finding the right solution for your home pillow windows and doors in Wisconsin real pricing premium quality no games schedule your free in-home consultation today at pellet w i dot com so before we go to break Jason yes I don't think I know
many of the Disney movie stories clearly I know the lady in the tramp all I know is the spaghetti where they're kissing what is the most misunderstood Disney like what what Disney movie is most misinterpreted I just want to find her you just said that on a packers game day you would never spend an entire segment talking about pumpkin carving and we're not going to with this either I'm generally a packers game day you would like to transition now into a discussion of the various misunderstood plot lines of Disney classics Mary pop I don't know how I don't know how I was this far off on Cinderella because all your members the ball and then I what are you shaking I think I don't Cinderella is one of the most known stories it's one of the oldest Disney movies I think that's a you thing that you don't know Cinderella I think most yeah I'm at our Cinderella all right
bambi bambi's a Disney right yeah I could not tell you what happens in bambi I mean I know I know you know what I know a couple of plot points but I don't I don't know like what's the tough stuff I don't know what the like resolution is at the end of the movie I have no idea what the movie is actually about and at home sucks packers falcons tonight at Lambo Field more next it's will the intention this is will the entouch presented by Pella Windows and doors of Wisconsin called today 855 Pella WI and online at Pella WI dot com slash radio the game day edition of will the attached as the packers get ready for the Atlanta Falcons on
Amazon Prime Jesse I heard your sports center what what are like Madison area Packers fans doing for this game well this is a lot of them have Amazon Prime I'm sure they enjoy the free shipping it's it's your four or five of Amazon Prime Thursday night football so I think everybody's got it figured out by now plus the peacock games they've been on the last couple of years I think everybody's figured out either you have it and you you've ordered it and you you subscribe and you you've got it on your TV at home or you know a local establishment that you can go post up at to watch it tonight so I think those are your two options or you turn it on the radio can you explain the free shipping to me because it's not really free right they just included in the price to get it because who's getting Amazon if you use it a bunch without having the free shipping option yeah anybody paying for freight every time they get a package I don't know I don't I we have it we had it before the before Amazon had prime video and football games on their
platform because we do shop there a lot on so can you explain it to me like you pay 200 bucks for the year I think it's a hundred it started out as $99 a year I don't know if it's 139 or 179 now but to your point you are basically paying all your shipping up front and you're getting video access along with it okay that would be the best way to I'm so it's like a membership that you can then otherwise if you don't have all of that you go on amazon.com and you can order something and you might have to pay four bucks every time to ship correct is that the deal okay that is correct yes that encourages you to buy more stuff because you want to get your value out of it well Jeff Bezos he's a savvy businessman that's why he's a billionaire remember that used to just be a bookstore I do use to just be books only that's where I got my world world book
we did not get to this yesterday so in advance of Packers Falcons tonight some might say they started to show us far you could put in the fact or crap category it is time for Jesse if you like concert up special like imaging for Tucker's world famous factor crap segments I'm glad he asked Jason I did get in a little early today since it was a success last week and I put together some special music for us to use for the segment this week. There's a short week what do you want from me I'm going to Vegas this weekend we'll get to figure it out next week. Factor crap courtesy of our will the in-touch trivia tournament of champions winner Tucker in Wasa he's now presented a couple of different facts this week as factor crap true or false type questions factor crap Matt LaFleur has never lost a home opener as the head coach of the Green Bay Packers fact that is a fact. I thought these were all facts and we
were deciding whether the fact was crap or a good fact. You're right that is how the segment was supposed to go. Did you forget how that works? Well Tucker didn't follow the rules I just read what he said so I'm just a proxy. So is that interesting or not? Matt LaFleur and the Green Bay Packers have never lost a home opener during his 10 years of the head coach. It's absolutely interesting it's not like it's a one or two year sample size here you're talking about eight. Good year eight and I'll be shocked if we are not taught still that stat will be good for next year because Matt LaFleur you could say he's started on the road a lot we've had some really tough losses in his 10 year and I know there was a lot of complaints why we always starting on the road well we're playing college football games up there in concerts they want that pristine turf to be great um but this is interesting I think we've seen along this league a lot of teams getting off to slow starts I was a part of a lot of teams that we did get off to slow
starts it makes things very difficult but it also I think in a funny way we'll kind of start bonding you as a group you're either going to bond or you're going to blow up and for the vast majority of the time that I was in Green Bay we bonded we had a blow up here and I never and one to point fingers at anyone but us as team and as coaches but that was the only time in my time in Green Bay and I think you could argue anybody's that the organization and the flow chart of the organization that was 2005 for those that don't remember we are the best four and 12 team ever I think that had as much to do with the blowing up of that season as the players did and I would never say that in other circumstances but from an or it was the only time I felt like the organization kind of let us down as players and by the way Ted Thompson let us know that as well
so that is not the case now and I think Matt LaFlaur along with Goody and now with different leadership there's something special about opening at home and Matt LaFlaur has done a great job of finding a way to get it done and if you look back on that and Bob Harlan the late great Bob Harlan admitted this and I believe it was on our show many years ago that as much as he liked Mike Sherman and we like Mike Sherman Mike Sherman's a great human being what they should if he was going to revoke the GM responsibilities from him he probably should have just moved on from him as the coach too even though he was a very good coach because that was a train wreck of a season Mike did not handle that demotion well he was uncomfortable with having a new boss in Ted Thompson then obviously fired him at the end of the season and they hired Mike McCarthy who
eventually lead them to a Super Bowl 45 title but he thought it would work and Bob admitted he was wrong and it sucks to have a wasted year did you you do believe looking back on that organizational awkwardness that you had more talent than what a 4 and 12 team actually had as a result correct well if you just look at the stats and the numbers that we were able to put up but yeah the record the beautiful part of sports the record will tell you it doesn't always tell the whole story but that's why we keep score and I'll also say it's one of the seasons that I'm probably most proud of individually because it was hard and I don't know how Joe Thomas did it I don't know how guys that losing seasons over and over are able to hang in there and continue especially at least with us we always had we have a great quarterback we'll figure it out that season we couldn't figure it out
you'll always have that game against the Saints though where you won like 52 to 3 there is a bonus factor crap nugget here from talker if you're interested is it crap well that's for you to decide by the way I just want to make sure because Jesse it seems like you tried to blame Tucker I want to say thank you Tucker you're taking work off our buddies play we appreciate it yeah thank you says the guy who once fired volunteers one time just send us the nuggets without putting them in the form of questions and we'll actually do the game we said we were gonna do factor crap is the Chervian champion he can take the heat he had the guy he didn't get a question wrong the entire term when the Packers take the field on Thursday night that's tonight they will have played the most home Thursday night games in weeks two through six since Matt LaFlore took over in 2019 I think what he's pointing out there is a benefit in the
schedule playing an early home Thursday night game on a quick week so you get the early baby before then getting to the regular buy later in the year should be positioned well um I think that one's kind of crap I don't need to dig in deeper on that one I don't think that one's great you're gonna have there's the green bay Packers are a big brand there if you don't want to say they're the top watched or top drawn team they're in the top three Amazon wants a piece the NFL wants to give pieces Lambo field is a special place that's why they're they're gonna jam us in and they don't want to wait until the end of the year where stuff could happen I think they love showcasing Lambo in the fall and then they also would love to get them you know Monday night game the Sunday night when the snow was coming and it's a little bit frozen and things of that nature so well I don't I think it's it's common sense that this would be in play um it I would say it's
probably nice to have a short week early in the season as opposed to having to deal with the short week later in the year right because your body is more beat up as opposed to now the offensive line notwithstanding uh at the same time I I don't know I feel like the baby buy is kind of a little bit of a fallacy because you have to pay a pretty difficult physical and mental price playing a game four days after you played a previous game uh that's certainly better to do that at home then have to get on up no doubt about that totally agree I also have a feeling if we dove deeper into it we would see that a lot of their early season Thursday night home games also then correlate with playing in Detroit on Thanksgiving and so there'd be a short week you should talk to checker to look that up for that I'm just that's speculation Jesse that's actually I don't know if I agree with that because what you're seeing is the league then gets the teams that play on that Thursday to play on another right the following three right after your old seven team did
yes Dallas and in Detroit all right we're going to get to the game preview for those of you that tuned in wanting to hear more specifics about the Packers match up with the Atlanta Falcons and Michael Penex making his season debut at quarterback but hey Jesse you know that do you know that through the entire history of the league there's only been four teams the team that the green Bay Packers are playing tonight that have not had a red zone appearance in their first two games did you know there's only four teams I did I did know that I saw that statistic I find it I don't know though if I feel good about that statistic when they it's not like they haven't scored a touchdown they did score touchdown against the Steelers and it was 23 yards so I mean technically B. John Robinson ran through the red zone to get to the addison hammered by this stat is it just
tells you how inept you are unless he flew like that running back who is much like the pumpkin carver like someone we've never seen who goes inside the pumpkin to do the car I think the high school in the white shadow was Carver high school but I'll have to double check that what I don't need to double check is that Pottawatomie casino hotel has the biggest hotel rooms in all of Milwaukee nearly 500 beautifully designed rooms and luxury suites that are perfect for a weekend reset a date night or celebrating something bigger maybe you just want to go down there and go watch Packers and Falcons tonight whatever you're doing you're just steps away from all the fun stuff that's happening inside and if you're hungry you've got so many great options from the dream dance steakhouse to the marketplace to rock and bruise to canal street cafe to Ruy Asian kitchen to the cream city coffee company and there's food and drink specials happening all the time and if you're planning a wedding a birthday or an anniversary then our events spaces are built to make

game preview for Packers Falcons let's take a closer look at this week's matchup this is the green and gold game preview there's the night footfall at Lambo Field for the green bay Packers and the Atlanta Falcons the home opener of the 2026 season here in week three what of the many options to choose from is the biggest storyline heading into tonight's game Mark Tousher yeah I'm not going low hanging fruit we've talked at nauseam about this I'm actually glad it's a short week as a former offensive lineman I'm glad if I'm those guys I'm glad I just might get back out play and shut you all up that's what I'd want to do if I was in that room so I'm not going to go there but I'm going to go something adjacent to it because it is a huge storyline and it will be offensively how the Packers play it's going to go down that road uh
sedarius Smith I don't even know if we've brought him up have we brought him up we have not he's not a falcon I've I missed an hour or two of the show recovering and I thank you guys because I am back maybe in strong um sedarius Smith has had a good start to his season and I feel like he didn't leave here on the best terms he didn't get the cap and see he went to the jewelry shop and got that medallion or whatever it was just was a an awkward ending here then he retired and I know he went through a bunch of stuff last year family wise he seems reborn and Jason was a sucker he loved those Smith brothers of media scrubs he loved them oh you are eating that up like porridge oh look at these two guys they're they're great players and they're so good with us and the media sitting there in the locker room until they weren't but he is going to be a challenge and I think
with a group that has been you know putting a blender all the stats I just got a meme for my buddy Abe about where the old line is 30 second 30 second 30 second 30 second let's get out of that hole and a lot of it's going to have to do with sedarius Smith and make being able to protect Jordan love so that this offense can go some places um is that technically a violation of the I'm not saying where you say I'm not I said I'm not gonna talk about the offensive line and then you talked about the offensive line I went adjacent sedarius Smith I am going to take the whole thing I just informed the producer of our show he didn't even know sedarius Smith got two and a half sacks Jesse through two games he's one of the few highlights for the uh Atlanta Falcons he did not leave under the best of terms if you recall correctly the the um some might say phantom back issue that
came up uh during training camp and he missed a lot of time wasn't even with the team for a long extended period of time I believe the starting quarterback back then was uh I see they made a man's and they were very chummy after the stealers beat the Falcons um but he was very displeased with uh sedarius for the record he gave the packers two really good one great year and another really good year and then he didn't have any more guaranteed money in his contract and then he developed the back issue uh and was the risk you play when the packers the way they structure contracts I this is the price this is the business that everybody's in is he a captain that's right for them uh I don't believe so no uh but he's he can always have the medallion you think he kept that medallion I was just bring it out yeah sure he has to wear that going in the lamp on a night it's got to have that as a warm up like that has to be if somehow the Falcons win the night and he gets pulled up on
stage with Gonzales and everybody else he's got to bring that medallion out um yeah uh I don't think that's going to end up being the case um the big storyline tonight is what Towsh referenced and that is uh can the packers get out of the basement in a variety of offensive categories um this is a program that has poked fun at times at Caleb Williams completion percentage the green bay packers have the worst completion percentage through two games of any team in the league they have the most penalties so they're the worst in the penalty department they are the worst on third down a 19 percent conversion rate they're four for 21 on third down home can their offense in spite of their offensive line issues get something cooking against an
Atlanta team that is not terrible defensively they're just terrible offensively but they have their quarterback back so we'll see how that goes but to me can the offense actually do something productive and win a game at home and we'll see if the offensive line takes advantage of uh mountain of floor shushing the crowd along with the scoreboard operator and build jarts to make sure they're quiet and not doing the wave when the packers are on offense because those are two seconds jartsy and uh la flor they cut a new video that they're going to put out or so jartsy jartsy does it live uh over the public address speakers he tells people to quiet down quiet they have they have a video uh they've got Jordan love up there telling people not to do the wave and then obviously we've seen mat la flor turning around and giving people this quiet down so yeah it's a team effort to keep the fans quiet do we want do we want jartsy to be a little bit even more vocal uh i really i like jartsy i've known him a long time he's been really good to me
he's helped me in my career uh the packers i think ask him to be a scald uh i don't think that is necessarily what he wants to always do but he he is he's like the none at the catholic school with the ruler like he's up there in the press box telling people to pipe down back there i don't want him on filtered what a position on power 80,000 people there and he's telling them all basically whenever he recognizes it hey knock it off i don't know if he enjoys it as much as you apparently would if you had that i will turn this stadium around next besides jordan love which player is most important to the packers having success tenites at lambo field touche jordan morgan jordan morgan i don't i don't think i get into a ton of it we got to protect and give i don't know what
i know that this offense will pair things down and i'm guessing they're going to try and you know have some more success running the football than what we've seen jordan morgan needs to be the guy and we need to start seeing him grow home games are a lot different and better for offensive tackles i want to see him i want to see him take a big step tonight uh i want to see jagger berton play in the game i want to see him start uh there's no more is he going to start if donovan genics is healthy that's the question jimmy i think he should your answer insider what's the answer is he gonna i'll let you know when they line up for warm-ups um i still i still i don't this is one of life's your great mysteries what's your gut tell you uh as i learned from the now defunct five sixty five analytics that were unceremoniously fired
by their benefactor who paid them nothing uh i got to go with my gut i if if he's not the starter i don't know how you avoid the conspiracy theory as theorists wondering what the heck is going on because even if donovan gennings is not on the injury report which is not um he still got hurt he still has a hand injury of some sort so jagger berton again according to our friend brine belaga who uh is is a bit of a jagger stan if we're being honest um i'll be i don't want to say disappoint it because it's not my problem but i will be uh surprised if he's not starting at left guard they have ruled out air in banks who was supposed to be a game time decision they ruled him out on Wednesday so not a game time decision next last up in our greening gold game preview the packers beat the falcons and remain undefeated in home openers under head coach
matlu floor if blank finish the blank taut if they keep the trend that i'm enamored with intact and if you keep that intact that gives you very little opportunity to score points i believe that the green bit packers are going to do that and if indeed that is the case the green bit packers going to be celebrating a Thursday night victory why are you so enamored with this that it's happened three times in the history of the NFL the trend you're referring to how are you not going to be in the red zone in their first two games because they had a guy run through the red zone three times way to the end zone jesse how old score three touchdowns tonight and win 20 to 17 and if the touchdowns are 33 36 and 42 yards they will not have entered the red zone based on
this statistic jesse how many years has the NFL been in play a lot of years 110 ish probably where in that one i think 108 more than 100 three times in a hundred seven years you're not no i don't i don't think they have red zone statistics dating back to 1923 we only have we only have penalties dating back 85 years apparently so i i don't think we can go 108 years but certainly i am better long time i'm flummox that you're not more intrigued by the fact that you're so fascinated by this it's not like they happen score to touchdown this will be more impressive if they didn't have a touchdown that emanated beyond the 20 yard line jesse be the juror here is it super intriguing or is it a nothing burger i got a text from my attorney friend yesterday by the way
he want a case up in your neck of the woods um it isn't intriguing stat it is not the be all end all of tonight's game but it is a very intriguing stat and it's an additional storyline that i'll be pulling for watching the game tonight hoping the defense keeps them out of the red zone so that continues three teams in 110 years and jason doesn't think that's interesting you know i do think is interesting okay i think i think it's interesting that you are going to have inspired closets reorganize your garage so you can fit max's car we are excited man we needed it we i've told you guys for years as long as we've been doing the show we got boxes in the garage we got stuff that we don't use somebody in our house likes to collect and keep things and they just sit there and sports equipment there's all kinds of stuff and now that max is going to hopefully get his license here in the near future we need to get some room so we can put our car in and that's why we met with inspired closets owners Katie and Dan they gave us a virtual reality look

I jacked to what's happening. Collar 20 in honor of the red zone collar 20. I was
going to say that's where the red zone begins collar 20 right now 844 770 3776 844 770 3776 collar 20 for the red zone less falcons to play will the entaushtrivia next to will the entausht will the entausht on 100.5 espn is brought to you by Everlight Solar save money save the planet Everlight Solar I've noticed there's a conspiracy theory taking roots in the youtube comments in recent days
that Jesse is not in fact selecting the aforementioned numbered collar and it's just picking regulars that they that he enjoys to have on trivia. I think Jesse is a person of high moral fiber so I find that very hard to believe. Anyone who would accuse me of that does not know me at all. Although it is someone today that plays a lot that I wish didn't time now for trivia. Jeez! Will the entaushtrivia is presented by cousin subs feeding the kids shouldn't be in negotiation. At cousin subs kids choose their favorite meal plus a side drink and dessert. Visit cousin subs.com cousin subs we believe in better. Just kidding Mike the wedding DJ just kidding although every joke has a little bit of truth to it. Mike how you doing?
I am doing much better than the Packer's offensive line because I am upright and spry. Spry how are the dolphins doing? How's my guy half doing down there? Your guy half leaves in for an o-17 season I think. It's been a long year already and it's only been two games. Rebuilding. All right here we go the trivia category in honor of Packer's Falcons is big moments in Packer's Falcons history and I'm going to guess that on at least two of these and maybe all three Mike will have the answer before I finish the question given his track. Oh you say Jesse now Jesse not only are you rigging it for our loyal everyday callers you're also now giving them simple questions that they don't even need multiple choices? No it's not it's not that I think they're they're set up there's not one of those which of these is not the that kind of thing and
I think these are three that he could get because Packer's Falcons history is not especially long. I'm thinking I'm going to play along here and I might jump can I jump in before Mike? No you can't. All right I won't okay also just spoiler alert the Packer's got Jesse's favorite player of all time from the Falcons and yet that did not in any way shape or form make the trivia. All right so I'm going to buzz in to see if I would beat Mike. So for anyone on the panel here we go. So no Brett Farve related questions from how he overslept for the team photo one year because he was hung over. Question number one Mike and Towsh is this. I love you guys. Which Falcons quarterback led Atlanta to a shocking playoff win? Michael Beck. At Lambo Fee. Hey beat me. 2017.
2002. No it was 15 years before that. 2002. 2017 Mike. Hey new Mick. Oh he's lose one for that. Collard Bolt. Here I think that's almost like saying Roosevelt which one and he said Teddy and it was for the other one. Brett Frank one. Yeah Fred. I was going to say Fred. Presidential historian. What's up for him ladies and gentlemen. All right Mike you're one for one question two. Which Packers player had a 70 yard interception return. Towsh has buzzed in for a long for a touchdown. Which proved to be the turning point in a divisional round playoff win over the Falcons in Atlanta in Roots to Green Bay winning Super Bowl 45.
I'm going to I'm going to need those for that one. I know Towsh probably know what it is. What? Oh this is a stoppin. All right. All right. I'm blanking on this one. Yeah. I have never been more disappointed in you Mike than right now and that really is saying something. He had a wedding that night. Your choice is I might have it was a Saturday. Your choice is Nick Collins. It was a Saturday by the way. It was a Saturday night. Nick Collins. Charles Woodson or Taman Williams. God it could be any of those guys. Yeah it's still a lot popping in my head who did it so wow. It would be hard to believe Collins would bring back one that long. I think Woodson's too obvious. So let's go with Williams. Nick Collins and Interceptions serve for a touchdown in the Super Bowl. No I meant that Collins was eight. I meant that long. 70 something yards long. He got 59-7. Yeah. So it's a interesting line of demarcation. It worked though. Regardless you are correct.
I guess it likes it. Taman Williams is correct. Two for two. All right question three. By the way the whole list it I know they came in and beat us at Lambo and broke the streak where the Pat we had never lost a game of playoff game at that's fine. There to be nobody left on your feet. Falcons tweet it's cold and they go back and throw back to that game. They hadn't been to Red Zone yet this year and they're tweeting that. Come on. It's the cold zone. You know why that is cold zone. Because my first pick and my fantasy league was Beja and Robinson that's what. Okay. I probably you probably jinxed them. If I may interrupt question three is this which Packer's Cornerback and undrafted second year player at the time was tasked with defending Julio Jones. Towsha's buzzed in. When the Falcons. I'm going to need to stop the Packers 44-21
in the 2016 NFC Championship game in which LaTroy Aguil played at guard. Was that defensive player that cornerback Demetri Goodson, Kentrell Bryce or Ladarius Gunter? God I guess that. I hope there's some names from the past. I'm going to catch Gunter. I have no idea. Pretty good guessing. It's good guessing. For not knowing two out of three questions you got all three right. Hopefully someone else will win the drawing tomorrow. Mike, great job today. Thank you. I'm just I'm just steering into the skit at this point. You got all three right. You got four entries in the tomorrow's drawing and you learned a little something about Tremont Williams and Ladarius Gunter. Yeah. So good job. Thanks for playing. We appreciate you. Thank you.
Love you guys. Bye. Love you guys. That is Will the Intouch trivia presented by Cousin Subbs. Ladarius Gunter sounds like he could work at Brown Strauss. Am I right? Oh, Brown Strauss.
