  • The other team is like, I can't wait till we get on that bus.

  • I promise you.

  • Many of the Packers are also like, I can't wait till we get e wait just a little bit longer than those other guys.

  • So I think that is right.

  • It's just about giving.

  • You're giving your opponent one more thing.

  • To think about it.

  • You've got to think about covering Adams.

  • You gotta think about beating those corners.

  • You gotta think about blocking the Smith Brothers.

  • You gotta think about Aaron Rodgers coming after.

  • You gotta think about that, run into that and you also got to think about the weather.

  • You also got to think about perhaps potentially some snow is just one more thing to think about.

  • It's not a huge factor, but it's something that's on the minds of the players that you would assume the Packers, since they live in that mess, will be comfortable with and not think much of it.

  • So our see who's the best equipped to go in and take down the Packers.

  • If if home field goes through Green Bay, you know what I feel like we're starting to talk about the Packers like they're unbeatable all of a sudden, like there's no team that could go in there and win.

  • But this is a flawed team, and they are so good teams in the NFC.

  • I think when I look at Seattle playing better defensively, getting Chris Carson back healthy and also having a quarterback who has gone to the East Coast, that one.

  • But a guy in Russell Wilson who could kind of match Aaron Rodgers with some of those wild plays and some of those super talented, elite level quarterback football place you need to win there.

  • And who's to say the Saints?

  • Because if it's snowing out there and they force Sean Payton to give the ball to Alvin Kamara, can't run the football, rush the pastor defensively and play tight man to man coverage like we saw the Tampa Bay Buccaneers do early on in the season.

  • Oh, by the way, and the Bucks have a quarterback who plays who's played in miserable weather his entire career, and so do I think the Packers are the lead or the head dog in the NFC?

  • Absolutely, but there are teams that are equipped and able to go in there, and even if it's only three hours of misery, figure out a way to win in the snow in the code against Aaron Rodgers.

  • Gotta have a hat like this.

  • That's what you gotta have.

  • So who's your pick does to go in and take them down if they can, Uh, guys, I think I will go with the Seattle Seahawks.

  • I think you know, RC.

  • You hit on the head.

  • When you talk about their defense, their defense is getting better.

  • Russell Wilson is the winner.

  • He can win in any climate, any region, any condition.

  • You know, he could get out there and get it done.

  • People talk about Tampa and they talk about Tom Brady.

  • But that's just one guy.

  • That's the just think about this.

  • These guys, everything.

  • They goto practice, they slide their feet and some flip flops.

  • They get in their convertible and they drive the practice.

  • Well, you do these guys, they're not made for that type of weather.

  • Believe me, I was up there.

  • I understand what it's like to have to go and you know, sub zero weather and go out there and place.

  • I would say that the Seattle Seahawks will probably be the team.

  • That's most equipment you get the Saints listen.

  • Drew Brees, Hall of Famer.

  • I get that.

  • But that's a dome team.

  • Guys, you're talking about going up to Lambeau Field in late December or January.

  • At this point, you know, I'm freezing cold.

  • It is.

  • So I will go with the Seahawks.

  • All right, So you played there, right?

  • You've You've had to play in the snow and the coal.

  • Dez.

  • What's it like?

  • How bad does it get?

  • Hey, these guys know.

  • Check this out, Ryan.

  • They've played in cold weather regions to they understand what it means.

  • Like get up in the morning, start your card and go back in the house for, like, 10 minutes.

  • Wife gets, Boy, you go out there, you have to scrape the windshield, get the frost off the windshield.

  • That's a whole different mentality.

  • So when you're up there now, you live in it, you practice in it, you play in it, you become more acclimated to plane in that type of weather.

  • And, brother, I'll tell you, we had a game against the 40 Niners, man.

  • It was a playoff game, and it was probably the most miserable, miserable conditions I've ever played in because it's one thing to be cold, but it's a completely different ball game when you're wet and code.

  • It was a wet day.

  • It was nasty, it was cold, and we're not winning that game.

  • But I was the most miserable game that I ever played in, and we got that dumb R c.

  • You got a story?

  • Yeah, man, you know, Lambo was like the last field.

  • I played that and and so it was.

  • It was a big thing for me.

  • I had covered every single stadium.

  • It was snowing there.

  • I was like, I'm gonna make a big play And I didn't wear gloves at the time.

  • So it's a field goal.

  • We blocked the field goal.

  • I scoop it, I see will get behind me.

  • I pitched the ball the will gay, and he dropped it.

  • And so will Gay drops the ball.

  • Coach LeBeau, who never cusses who never screams, comes over to me.

  • He's all mad like R C.

  • We could have changed the game.

  • I was like, I know, coach, but this the last one and I'm at Lambeau and so you know, whereas days and those guys say you actually get acclimated to the cold, you don't ever get acclimated to it.

  • You just tolerated because you live there, Nick.

  • What do you got?

  • Nothing, man.

  • I played there before and I wiped it all from my memory banks because it was frigid and I didn't like it.

  • It was terrible.
