Scouting report specifically for the Pack.

that dude is crazy to think chicago will be on top of the division. They have no receivers or secondary. and we have the best receivers and secondary in the division. LOL these projections make me laugh.

---

Chicago over the Packers in the NFC title game?
O........k.

I am shocked this didn't bother more than two people!!!!

Schein
Packers 12-4
Bears 9-7
Vikes 7-9
Lions 5-11

Gannon
Packers 11-5
VIkes 10-6
Bears 10-6
Lions 5-11

I think Gannon has been drinking alot of NFC North kool-aid but his is closer to being right for the fact that the top 3 teams are close. I don't see the Packers running away with the division.

---

Packers 12-4, Vikings 7-9? Did he have an explenation for that? Because that seems highly unlikely to me. The only way this could happen is if both Williams' are held out for the first 4 games due to their drug problems and have them losing against some weaker teams. Something I don't see happening.

NFC TITLE GAME
PACKERS OVER GIANT

SUBERBOWL
PATRIOTS OVER PACK

SCHEIN is very down on Brett so that's why I Thinks

Now that the Lions have designated Matt Stafford their opening-day starter, I am moderating my optimism for the team. I now think 8-8 is probably the ceiling for how well they will achieve this year. Sure, he could pull a Joe Flacco or Matt Ryan, but as Dan Patrick pointed out, they went to fundamentally solid teams that had underachieved. Matt Stafford is not so fortunate and is likely to find himself on his back more often than not.

For now, I am sticking with the following prediction:

Packers: 10-6 with tiebreakers
Bears: 10-6 with wildcard
Vikings: 9-7
Lions 8-8
