well it seems like the world has been turned upside down for fans in the NFC north. Green bay and Detroit are atop the division while chicago and the vikings seem to be going in the wrong direction every week.
as a michigan native and a lions fan this makes me very happy lol.
so here are my nfc north predictions.
1. detroit - yes i am a little biased, but you have to admit the offense has been impressive so far. Kitna comes through on his 10-win promise, lions back in the playoffs baby!
2. Minnesota - the vikings will get things back on track and challenge for the division with the help of adrian peterson who will make a strong case for rookie of the year.
3. Green Bay - sure they are off to a hot start and everyone is in love with brett farvre again, but this is a long season and farvre is old. i am personally waiting for his arm to get tired and waiting for him to have his classic midseason collapse where he throws 10 picks in a 3 game stretch lol.
4. Da Bears - the offense is worse this year and the defense isnt putting up the points that they were last year, and its not there fault. you cant expect your defense to outscore your offense every game and be a winning team. Bright spot is Hester but his numbers should taper off if teams brighten up and keep the ball away from him. im still dumbfounded that teams kick to this guy, im also amazed that chicago doesnt get him more involved on the offensive side of the ball. this guy needs the ball in his hands as much as possible, like 20 touches a game minimum.
