Aah, reminds me of the NFC North dream team. I'm always up for this kind of stuff. Lets give it a go.

QB - Packers/Bears, Lions, Vikings - The Packers and Bears are tied here, because Rodgers has been the starter for one year, while Cutler has shown he can perform well over multiple years. Based sololy on last year, it'd be Rodgers though. As for the Lions and Vikes. Culpepper can still get it done with some talent around him and the Vikings really have no good players at that position. Not counting Favre in here yet.

RB - Vikings, Bears, Lions, Packers - This'll change if Grant can perform up to his 2007 standard or we'll find a good balance between our RBs. Vikings first, there's no competition. Bears second, mainly because Fort can do it all and Lions third because Kevin Smith was very impressive in his rookie season and should improve with a decent passing game and a decent O-line.

FB - Packers, Bears, Lions, Vikings - Packers and Bears both have good FBs. Our stable is a bit bigger though. The Lions and Vikings don't. The Lions drafted Jerome Felton just last year though and he has room for improvement, I'll give them the upper hand on this one.

WR - Packers, Lions, Vikings, Bears - We might (arguably) not have the best WR in the division, but we do have the best stable of good ones. The Lions have Calvin Johnson and a big drop-off after that. Berrian is ok, but too much for a one-trick pony for my taste and the Bears only have TEs.

TE - Bears, Lions, Packers/Vikings - The Bears obviously have the best two TEs in the division in Olsen and Clark. The Bears drafted a great blocking TE with receiving ability and both the Packers and Vikings have an one-year wonder as starters.

OT - Vikings, Bears/Packers, Lions - The Vikings have McKinnie on the left side and a promising mauler on the right side. The Bears signed Pace, bumping them up to 2 with a big gap at the right side. The Packers have a declining player and a new guy on the line and the Lions' OTs pretty much suck, untill Cherilus is going to show something.

OG - Vikings, Packers, Bears, Lions - The Vikings have Hutchinson, arguably the best guard in the game, and a gap at the right side. We have a revolving door, if Spitz plays at guard, we're at second though, and the Bears and Lions really have no one.

OC - Bears, Packers/Lions, Vikings - Olin Kreutz can still play. I'm going with Wells at center for the Packers, I think in that case, we're equal to the Lions. The Vikings have a big question mark with Birk gone.

For DT, DE and OLB, I'm asuming that we're talking about a 4-3 formation.

DT - Vikings, Bears, Packers, Lions - The Vikings hve the most dominant pair of DTs in the league. The Bears have an elite DT in Tommie Harris and the Packers now have two big guys in Pickett and Raji. Raji still has to prove himself, though. The Lions traded their only good DT away in Cory Redding.

DE - Packers, Vikings, Bears, Lions - The Packers had the most dominant DE stable in the league. With KGB falling away, we still have the best one in the division when Kampman and Jenkins both line up at DE. The Vikings have Jared Allen with Edwards/Udeze playing LE and the Bears and Vikings really don't have that bad of a DE group either.

OLB - Bears/Lions, Packers/Vikings - From a 4-3 stance, this is a dominating position. The Bears have Briggs and Tinoisamoa. The Lions now have Simms and Julian Peterson. The Packers would have Matthews and Hawk. The Vikings would have Greenway and Leber. I've given the Bears and Lions the edge because they both have one really dominating guy at that position.

MLB - Bears/Vikings/Packers, Lions - Really, who is the best when you look at Barnett, Henderson and Urlacher. The most overhyped one is Urlacher, but I think that this is a pretty even match. The Lions aren't even close.

CB - Packers, Vikings/Bears, Lions - Our corners might be aging, but they're still both some of the best in the business. The Lions have an amazing player in Winfield, but an average guy on the other side in Griffin. The Bears have two very good corners in Tillman and Vasher. It evens eachother out. The Lions, once again, keep left behind.

S - Packers, Vikings, Lions, Bears - Although I'm still not that big a fan of Bigby, we do have a great player in Collins. The Vikings let Sharper go and now have a big hole there, but Williams is still a pretty solid player. The Lions have a good young player in Alexander and upgraded the other spot by getting Delmas early in the draft. The Bears let Mike Brown go and have nothing but gaping holes at that position. Overall, a very weak safety class.

K - Lions, Bears, Vikings, Packers - It might look weird, since Crosby is quite a good kicker, but the division is filled with studs at this position. Hason has been a great kicked since he joined the league in 1992. Gould is great. Longwell still has the edge over Crosby.

P - Bears/Lions/Vikings, Packers - I have to admit that I'm not to well educated on the punters in our division, but from what I've seen, they're all average. Except for Kapinos, who still has to prove himself and really had a below average statistical season.

Okay, I might've gone a bit overboard there, but I had a lot of fun doing it. I think it's become a pretty objective list.

Nicely done Rock.

I still think Olsen is horribly overrated by almost everyone. I see absolutely nothing special in him, other than his ability to push off.

Note: if i do Team A/Team B I'm undecided between the two or denoting a tie in my mind.

Some of these I had a hard time making up my mind and we'll obviously get a more accurate look by the end of training camp. Here's where I'm at right now.

some great posts so far but one part i would disagree on are the lbers. I would ranked the lions #1 with Simms, Petersen, and Foote but thats just me. The lions have done so much to help their team this year i don't know who they all have. They just added an o-lineman in Jansen so their line could be good also.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Fan Shout
Zero2Cool (3h) : Merry Christmas!
beast (11h) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
beast (19h) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won
Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???
Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
beast (23-Dec) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread
