May . . . the Lions win one game. Naw, never gonna happen.

I actually hope the Lions do much better next season. I'm tired of the NFC North being the laughingstock of the league. Sure, winning the division every other year or so is nice, but I'd rather see some better competition. When was the last time every team in the NFC North had a winning record. Has it ever happened? Was there ever a year in which every team in the NFC Central had a winning record? The NFC South, NFC East and AFC East -- now there are some exciting divisions!

So my primary wish for 2009 is a renaissance of the old Black and Blue Division. I want to see some smash-mouth football that causes other divisions to shake in their boots. Even if it means the Packers win the division less often, it will make the division titles that much more satisfying for me.

The corollary to this wish is I'd like to see two or three teams from the North make the playoffs in one season. That would be some thrilling football.

For the Packers to win the NFC north for the rest of the history of the NFL...and for there to be no competition whatsoever...haha

The NFC North has been down a little. But not terrible.

Now can only hope for the domination similar to the Central when Brett was with the team.

In that time frame the NFC Central put 48% of the teams in the playoffs for the NFC. A couple years 4 of the 6 NFC teams were the central.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

What a mind-boggling thought! Nowadays that wouldn't be possible. The maximum number of teams a division could send would be 3.

Of course my other wish is that the Packers win the division in 2009 in convincing fashion -- perhaps even by sweeping the entire division series. 😃

How about Packers undefeated, with the Bears, Vikes and Lions all with two loses.

Of course both from the Packers.

A combined Division record of 58-6. Yes, that would please me mightily.

That whichever QB the Lions pick #1, he's not going to get completely trashed and wasted playing on that team.

That, I'd like aswell. They screwed over Harring quite well. I hope that if they draft a QB, the new management will actually get him a team this time.

Getting a good O-line, receivers seem to be in place, running game seems to be developping.

That's what I wish for the division atm, I'm actually starting to feel sorry for a divisional rival....
