Chris Lempesis is back in the basement Packer room, beer in hand, for another Tuesday night edition of Emptying The Bag ’25: Lions Edition – and this one is pure post-Thanksgiving chaos in the best possible way.
Because it’s Bears Week, he kicks things off with a full-on love letter roast to his all-time favorite Chicago Bear, Jay Cutler – the smoking, sulking, 1980s-movie-villain quarterback who gifted Packers fans a generation of bad decisions and glorious interceptions. From the trade haul the Bears blew on him to that beautiful 2–11 record vs Green Bay, Lemps gives Cuddy the kind of tribute only a true rival can.
Then the bag gets ripped wide open. Chris plows through all the questions and comments he couldn’t get to on Thanksgiving night after the Packers’ 31–24 win over the Lions at Ford Field, hitting:
- * How the Packers can possibly make up for the gut-punch loss of Devonte Wyatt
- * Why this offensive line finally looks stabilized after hanging a zero-sack day on Aidan Hutchinson and friends
- * Jordan Love’s Toyotathon magic and why Thanksgiving Jordan Love is basically Godzilla in green and gold
- * Dontayvion Wicks quietly turning into a cold-blooded closer
- * Micah Parsons as the cosmic “screw you” to Jerry Jones that Wisconsin absolutely deserved
- * Matt LaFleur coaching like his job depended on it – and why this version of Aggro Matt might just win a Super Bowl
- * The very real possibility that Bears fans don’t actually “hate” the Packers as much as they desperately need the Packers
Of course, it wouldn’t be a true LempsTalkinPack mailbag without some shameless self-promotion (LTP t-shirts are on sale, baby), a raised-glass salute to Ticket King, and a fresh helping of Facebook F***ery, where Chris shreds another ridiculous fake “breaking news” post about the Packers’ supposed roster moves.
It’s loud, it’s petty, it’s weirdly heartfelt, and it’s everything you want out of a post-Lions, pre-Bears rivalry week episode. If you bleed green and gold and enjoy your Packers talk with a side of profanity, nostalgia, and actual football analysis, this is the show you want in your ears.
Go Pack Go — and yes, absolutely, F* the Bears.
