Green Bay Packers (+125 odds) – With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with. Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season.
My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North

Minnesota Vikings (+130 odds) – There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.
My NFL Predictions: 9-7, 2nd place in NFC North

Chicago Bears (+350 odds) – The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year. No, we don’t think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there’s still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren’t so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500… but then again, maybe it doesn’t. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.
My NFL Predictions: 7-9, 3rd place in NFC North

Detroit Lions (+1500 odds) – The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren’t just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.
My NFL Predictions: 5-11, 4th place in NFC North
