Hosted by Pat The Designer & ESPN’s John “Jurko” Jurkovic
Brought to you by Mitch Lyons Wealth & Underdog Fantasy
Today’s episode focuses on the advantages the Chicago Bears have over the Green Bay Packers heading into this week’s rivalry matchup. Pat and Jurko break down where the Bears can control the game — starting with a powerful Bears rushing attack facing a vulnerable Packers run defense.
The guys also look at Jordan Love’s turnover issues in clutch moments, why the Bears’ offensive line has become a dominant group, and how Chicago’s physical identity can take over at Lambeau.
They also check in on Austin Booker’s growth, and debate a big question: Which QB & HC duo would you rather have — the Bears’ or the Packers’?
Plus, Jurko gives his weekly Underdog Fantasy picks.
