Brewers-Padres Has Homer in DISBELIEF & Jason Wilde Still Sees 11 Wins for Green Bay7 Oct45 min

On The Homer Hour, Homer is completely consumed by Brewers-Padres Game 4 after three games he calls unlike anything he’s ever experienced. Every matchup has remained razor-close into the ninth inning, with runners on base and one play capable of flipping the entire series. Homer’s confidence hasn’t changed: the Brewers will find a way. In fact, he says the Packers could lose by 50 Sunday and he wouldn’t care if Milwaukee finishes off San Diego.

Jason Wilde joins the show and shifts the conversation to Packers-Bears, calling Sunday an opportunity for Green Bay to make a statement and finally generate some momentum. Wilde pushes back against the idea that Matt LaFleur’s quieter approach means the Packers care less about the rivalry and believes a win could completely change the feel of the season. Homer remains far less optimistic, calling Green Bay a mess and saying there’s currently nothing special about this team.

But Wilde isn’t abandoning the season yet. If Laken Tomlinson and Kevin Zeitler can turn the offensive line into merely an average NFL unit, he still believes Green Bay could finish around 11-6. He also shares his conversation with Tucker Kraft about the tight end’s uncharacteristic drops, explaining why Kraft’s return from injury has been more difficult than expected and how thinking about yards after the catch may be causing him to lose focus on securing the football first.

And with Micah Parsons still working his way back, Homer argues Green Bay should be extremely cautious when its star pass rusher returns. Wilde says November is beginning to look like the realistic window, and Homer would rather see Parsons limited to high-impact passing situations than rush him back into a full workload. Then it’s right back to October baseball, with Homer opening the phones to Brewers fans trying to survive a series where seemingly every pitch, bounce and defensive play could decide who moves on.
