The 2003 Wild Card game between the Packers and Seahawks was a brawl.

Seattle jumped out early. Brett Favre and the Packers kept finding ways to respond, and Shaun Alexander kept the Seahawks in it. By the fourth quarter, it was clear neither team was giving up quietly. The game went to overtime tied 27-27, setting up one of the most famous coin-toss moments in NFL history.

Matt Hasselbeck, back in Lambeau against his former team, called it loud enough for the world to hear:

>“We want the ball and we’re gonna score.”

Famous last words.

A few plays later, Al Harris jumped the route, took it the other way, and turned that quote into a punchline. As far as playoff endings go, it is hard to script one better than that.

There’s no trophy for breaking cycles, but this feels close 😊

The 2002 Miami Dolphins defense was an absolute nightmare for offenses. They allowed the fewest points in the entire NFL, forced turnovers all season, and had playmakers everywhere.

- 🧱 Zach Thomas flying sideline to sideline

- 💥 Jason Taylor terrorizing quarterbacks

- 🔒 Patrick Surtain locking down receivers

- 🎯 Sam Madison picking off passes

This unit didn’t just stop teams… they dominated them. One of the most underrated defenses of the 2000s.

Isa Briones does a good impression of Dana Evans.

This is one of those stats that actually tells a story. This is not just “Josh Jacobs scores touchdowns.” This is fourth quarter & overtime, game on the line, team has to score, defense expecting the run, and Jacobs still finding a way to punch it in.

Being ahead of Emmitt Smith, LaDainian Tomlinson, Marcus Allen, and Saquon Barkley in any rushing category is wild enough. But being ahead of them in go-ahead rushing touchdowns is legacy stuff. Josh Jacobs is a game closer. That is exactly why the Packers brought him to Green Bay.

Tucker Kraft, Evan Williams, Edge Cooper, and Lukas Van Ness had a blast at the concert in Lambeau.

Kadyn Proctor’s weight journey is a reminder that life in the trenches is brutal. Size matters, but conditioning and discipline keep you on the field.

Clay Matthews turned 40 this week, which feels deeply wrong. So naturally, this is a good excuse to watch him argue linebacker play with Will Compton. No real stakes, just two former linebackers talking ball is exactly the kind of dumb fun offseason clip I love to watch.

I think Clay deserves a little more credit for what he did when the Packers kicked him inside. Everyone remembers the sacks, the hair, the celebrations, and the peak Claymaker edge-rusher years, but when the Packers moved him inside, he was legitimately *good*. He gave Green Bay range, physicality, and some badly needed flexibility at ILB.

Also, him being the Packers’ all-time leader in TFLs with 130 is one of those stats that sneaks up on you and then makes perfect sense. The sacks were the headline, but the real story was how often Clay lived in the backfield and blew up the design of an offense.

🐂 Go Bulls!! 🐂

“I mean y’all didn’t lie. It was Mr. Ross. They got me. I’m thinking Mr. Ross, you know I’m thinking big owner, big dog.”

Great documentary on one women's long standing connection with the Green Bay Packers & how her influence is still felt today.
