The Green Bay Packers got bullied, gaslit, and reality-checked by the Baltimore Ravens — at home — in what may have been the most clarifying loss of the season. Derrick Henry ran like it was 2015, Malik Willis played out of his mind on one good shoulder, and the Packers defense… well… mostly watched.

On this episode of Cheesehead Radio, we try to make sense of a team that has officially clinched a playoff spot — and somehow looks less sure of itself than ever. The Packers are locked into the 7 seed, riddled with injuries, and staring down a Week 18 matchup against the Vikings that raises a brutal question: do they even care if they win?

We break down how Baltimore imposed its identity while Green Bay still searches for one, why the run defense completely collapsed, and how a once-promising defense looks painfully ordinary without Micah Parsons and Devonte Wyatt. We talk Malik Willis’ breakout audition, Jordan Love’s concussion situation, and whether Willis just priced himself out of Green Bay forever.

Then we go bigger. Rashan Gary’s disappearing act. The uncomfortable future of Quay Walker. Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, and the coming cap reality. The injury avalanche that has quietly undermined what should have been a Super Bowl-level season.

Finally, we look ahead to Vikings week — not as a rivalry game, but as a risk-assessment exercise. Do you rest starters? Chase momentum? Let Justin Jefferson get his yards and get out alive? Or pretend this is still a normal football game?

This isn’t rage radio.
This is recognition.

Because the most unsettling part isn’t the loss —
it’s how familiar it all feels.
