Episode Details

Micah Parsons almost went to Philadelphia instead of Green Bay—and his comments about wanting to play next to Jalen Carter reveal everything about what this defense needs. While fans obsess over cornerback, the real crisis is at defensive tackle, where the Packers rank 31st in run defense with a group averaging devastating PFF grades. This episode breaks down why our corners are actually better than our defensive tackles and what it means for the 2026 draft.

Key discussion points:

• Micah Parsons' podcast appearance and what he revealed about elite defensive tackle play
• Statistical breakdown: Why Devonte Wyatt (53 PFF grade) is our BEST defensive tackle
• The myth of the 330-pound nose tackle—historical data proves technique beats weight
• Andrew from the Facebook group's defensive tackle manifesto and where I agree (and disagree)
• 2026 draft prospects: Dante Corleone, Darryl Jackson, and Grayson Halton film analysis
• Super Bowl LIX preview with betting trends, prop bets, and why Seattle should win

This is a data-driven deep dive into the Packers' most overlooked positional need. We're examining PFF grades, historical draft success rates, and what it actually takes to find elite run defenders. Plus Super Bowl betting insights and why this year's game might be the most politically charged in NFL history.
