NFC North

Green Bay: 10-6

Chicago: 8-8

Detroit: 7-9

Minnesota: 4-12

Now that I look up and down the NFC, I’m really not that impressed. Especially here in the north division. I’m going with Green Bay because they have the third best quarterback in the game, a top notch running back, and a good receiving corps. Their defense is still questionable, but this is a division where it seems like defense is optional. They will be able to get by on their offense alone.

I love Matthew Stafford and Calvin Johnson, but the rest of the team is just way too average to me (aside from the front four). They don’t have any kind of secondary, no running game, and a mediocre offensive line. The only reason they won’t be in the division cellar is because the Vikings are going to be very, very bad. Adrian Peterson may have to play quarterback if they want to do any kind of damage.
