Here is how The Sports Den thinks the NFC North is going to end up.

1. Detroit Lions –  Yes you are reading this right. There are a few experts out there picking the Lions as the surprise team in the NFL this season, and The Sports Den agrees with that thinking. Being the laughing stock of the NFL under then GM Matt Millen, the Lions have improve since his firing a few years back. they finished 6-10 last season and could do a lot better this season, of course it all depends if QB Mathew Stafford can stay healthy. (10-6)

2. Chicago Bears  – The Sports Den didn’t think the Bears were good enough to win this division last year but they did with an 11-5 record. The Sports Den is going to say the samething this year, so they will probably win it again due to the fact we are picking the Lions to win it. (9-7).

3. Green Bay Packers – Yes we are picking the Packers to finish third in the division. They finished second last year to the Bears and went on to win the Super Bowl, and that is the reason they will finish third Super Bowl hangover, it does exist. How happy do you think this organization is about Aaron Rodgers winning the Super Bowl? (8-8)

4. Minnesota Vikings – The Vikings finished  6-10 last season, have a new coach, and new QB in Donovan McNabb. The Sports Den dopesn’t see the Vikings finishing any better than they did last season. (6-10).
