On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, the gang is recklessly optimistic because over the last several games, we seem to have become a legit good team. The offense sparkled against the Lions on Thanksgiving as Jordan Love hit every receiver in every conceivable part of the field, turning in his best game as a professional, and turning heads across the league. 
Love was bolstered by a bounceback from Christian Watson, and continued excellence from Jayden Reed, and on the defensive side, from Rashan Gary. But can they keep this up against the outstanding Kansas City defense, and do we actually want them to make the playoffs this year? And are they going to make the playoffs this year? And while Joe Barry is Matt’s friend, what if a better friend becomes available? 
Who cares! The team is good and we talk about all the good as the Packers enter the home stretch.
