Jason Wilde

Jason Wilde joins Jim, Matt & Molly to talk about the fallout from Rich Bisaccia stepping down as Packers' special-teams coordinator and more from this confusing offseason -- how frustrated should fans feel about Rich's departure 38 DAYS after the end of the season? Also, how will the loss of Bisaccia impact the locker room and the culture, and can the Packers find an unheralded coordinator to take over (aka "their Matt Hamilton")? First, Jason gets a look at Matt's closing ceremonies Olympic fit, and he shares his thoughts on Badgers athletics getting a tax bill passes to help UW keep up in the NIL era -- what if Wisconsin eventually decides to cut Olympic sports?

Jason Wilde drops by Jen, Gabe & Chewy and the conversation starts with why Green Bay’s current projection up front is the biggest red-flag position group on the roster, how the Bears loss exposed protection cracks when pressure finally showed up, and why the Packers don’t have their usual “next guy ready” safety net. From tough calls on veterans, to the center dilemma, to draft targets (including Iowa’s Logan Jones getting the Bulaga seal of approval), Wilde makes the case that the line needs real answers, not vibes.

And yes, special teams still get their spotlight: Wilde reacts to the post-Bisaccia hunt and even pitches a wild-card replacement candidate with an Army-to-Iraq-helicopter-pilot resume… because if you can fly missions over Iraq, you can probably figure out punt returns.

Jason Wilde joined The Homer Hour to break down the latest around the Green Bay Packers and their NFC North rivals. The conversation started with reaction to reports that the Chicago Bears are exploring building a stadium in Indiana and what that could mean for the rivalry.

From there, the focus shifted to Green Bay’s offseason priorities — specifically the offensive line. Which position group up front is the biggest key, and is the O-line the Packers’ biggest question mark heading into the season?

They wrapped with some quarterback talk, debating which signal-caller would pose the tougher challenge if they were with the Minnesota Vikings — Malik Willis or Aaron Rodgers.

Jason Wilde joined KBN to break down the latest surrounding the Green Bay Packers, starting with a little NFC North banter — does he regret ever wishing the Chicago Bears were good considering how insufferable their fans have become?

The conversation shifted to Associate Head Coach/Special Teams Coordinator Rich Bisaccia stepping down. Who ultimately made the call, and why didn’t it happen a month earlier? The guys debated whether the special teams issues were on Bisaccia or tied more to the roster-building philosophy of GM Brian Gutekunst.

They also evaluated Jordan Love’s 2025 season — was it simply average? — and examined why the Packers’ year ultimately ended the way it did.

Rich Bisaccia is out in Green Bay, and Jason Wilde isn’t buying the easy explanation.

In his appearance on Jen, Gabe & Chewy, Wilde digs into the timing of Bisaccia’s departure and why the whole situation feels off. Forty days after the Bears loss, with other teams already filling special teams jobs and assistants moving on, Wilde says the press release and glowing quotes don’t answer the real questions.

Was this friction? Reflection? Something else entirely?

The conversation dives into what Bisaccia actually meant to the Packers. Was he respected as a culture-setter, or just liked as “the easy teacher”? Wilde pushes back on that narrative, arguing that players respected him as both a coach and a leader. At the same time, he acknowledges the glaring special teams failures — especially in the return game — and walks through how special teams rankings really work, why Daniel Whelan’s elite punting doesn’t erase return struggles, and how one bad kicking performance can skew the perception of the entire unit.
