Real Packer Fans Know

Photo Credit: Madison Morris, packers.com On Monday this week, the players for the Green Bay Packers cleaned out their lockers and talked to the media one last time before disappearing into the offseason. There were many stories and insights from key players such as Micah Parsons and Tucker Kraft. The main story and question surrounding the Packers right now is what are they going to do with head coach Matt LaFleur? Give him an extension or move on? Parsons, as he leaned on his crutches, made it clear what he thinks of Matt LaFleur as a coach and as a person. Most notably, he was quoted saying, “I reached out to him when I started seeing this and I said, when I agreed to come here, you were part of the reason.” Micah Parsons with a strong endorsement of Packers coach Matt LaFleur. “I reached out to him when I started seeing this and I said, ‘When I agreed to come here, you were part of the reason.’” pic.twitter.com/f8dNblb9Fc — Rob Demovsky (@RobDemovsky) January 12, 2026   Tucker...

Unbelievable things kept happening that every Packer fan could see coming from a mile away on Saturday night at Soldier Field. No matter how crazy they were, the writing was on the wall this entire season. For 16 years, we have been blessed with winning Packers football and chances to play in the postseason. The results? Nothing but sheer heartbreak. The Games: 2013 WC vs. SF - Led 17-13 until 10:31 left. Lost lead, tied it, lost on walkoff FG 2014 NFCCG at Sea - You Know 2015 Div at Arz - Led 13-10 until 3:50 left 2021 Div vs SF - Led 10-3 until 4:41 Left 2023 Div at SF - Led 21-17 until 1:07 left 2025 WC at Chi — Eric Drews (@GreenGold4Ever) January 11, 2026 Uncharted territory for Green Bay 😳 The Packers are the first team since the 1970 merger to lose 3 games when leading by 10+ points in the final 5 minutes of the game, including playoffs. pic.twitter.com/oUNtZ6lbmG — ESPN I...

Photo Credit: Evan Siegle, packers.com There’s no other way to put or describe this game between the Packers and Bears on Saturday night. All or Nothing. If the Bears lose to the Packers will it be considered a losing season? "Everything the Bears have accomplished, everything the Bears have done, every positive sentiment is gone if the Packers go in and end their season." - @stoolpresidente pic.twitter.com/7ndv5pcl45 — Wake Up Barstool (@wakeupbarstool) January 5, 2026   Matt LaFleur put it best in one of his press conferences earlier this week. He said, “Ultimately it’s about what you do on that day.” That is exactly the case for Saturday’s game. The Packers have had the definition of a rollercoaster season, starting with two statement wins, a loss to the Browns, a tie against the Cowboys, to holding the one seed in the NFC, season-ending injuries to key players, and ending the season on a 4-game losing streak (oof). This game against the Bears is a chance to wipe the sla...

  Photo Credit: Evan Siegle, packers.com Some good news and bad news ahead of the Packers matchup on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. Let’s start with the good news. Jordan Love has cleared concussion protocol and is back to practicing fully. This is massive news for the G and G, as they get their starting quarterback back just in time for the playoff push. The Packers also added some more depth at corner, signing Trevon Diggs after he was released by the Cowboys.

Although Diggs’ numbers are not as pretty as some may like, the Packers defense desperately needed bodies at the corner position, ...

Photo Credit: Madison Morris, packers.com The Packers lost to the Bears on Saturday night in a game where they did everything wrong to lose the game. From a botched onside kick to a deep bomb that sealed the game in overtime, it felt like déjà vu. Pretty similar to another classic Packers collapse, the 2014 NFC title game against the Seattle Seahawks. Packers fans just relived the 2014 NFC Championship Game. - The double-digit lead late in the 4th - The botched onside kick recovery - The over the shoulder winning TD in OT pic.twitter.com/vgkBdHYD1m — Brendan Sugrue (@BrendanSugrue) December 21, 2025   On the bright side, this was just a regular season game. On the downside, it was against the Bears. There is some context to this loss, as Jordan Love left the game after 17 plays due to a concussion he sustained. Malik Willis came in and was completely serviceable until his fumble in overtime. Credit to the Bears though, the vibes around their team have completely turned around than...

  It’s hard to put into words. If the Packers had simply lost this game to the Broncos and nobody got hurt, we wouldn’t be as down in the dumps as we are right now. Instead, we got the worst of both worlds. When Micah Parsons went down with a noncontact knee injury in the third quarter, I have never seen the life get sucked out of a stadium so fast. 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Packers’ LB Micah Parsons is currently down and holding at his knee. It appeared to be a non-contact left knee injury. 🙏🙏🙏 pic.twitter.com/93b44oAfyK — Dov Kleiman (@NFL_DovKleiman) December 14, 2025 yep. look at the shin pop back - ACL https://t.co/YzPyxzpXsO pic.twitter.com/EwZrRgZTVQ — Brian Sutterer MD (@BrianSuttererMD) December 14, 2025   That third quarter against the Broncos will go down as one of the worst moments in Packers history. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Not only did Parsons go down, but so did Christian Watson with a chest injury, Zach Tom with a knee injury, and Evan Williams ...
