3PM: Packers Bold Predictions, Matthew Golden Breakout Hype & It’s Time to Liberate Jordan Love
The 3PM hour of Kyle & Brust revisits the annual Wilde & Tausch Bold-a-thon, where Kyle Wallace predicts the Packers will lead the NFL in turnover differential and Edgerrin Cooper will become a First-Team All-Pro. Ben counters with his own bold prediction that rookie cornerback Brandon Cisse will record six interceptions. The guys also react to NFL executives picking Matthew Golden as the league’s breakout player for 2026 and debate whether Matt LaFleur will actually give Golden enough opportunities to make it happen.
