POLL Who will win the NFC North?

[SonnyCID]

The Vikings won the division on the last play of the last game of the season in what was Rodgers worst full season as a starter since his first full season. Gain some perspective bruh.

They won because they were the better team.

And they have a better, more talented roster. I could see them still improving, while I could also just as easily see the Packers deal with some of the same issues they had last year. I'm sorry that hurts your feelings, bruh.

You need to go to the eye doctor bruh.

 

[SonnyCID]

You need to go to the eye doctor bruh.

You need to go to the proctologist bruh.

Your butt hurt has become infected.

You're just desperate to see the Packers relevance fade.

 

[SonnyCID]

Yeah, it's all about the Packers. Has nothing do to with the Vikes being younger and better all around.

 

[packerzrule]

Yeah, it's all about the Packers.

Obi Wan has taught you well

 

[sonnyblack65]

Pack as long as AR is healthy, they will take division

 

[Manster7588]

I'm saying GB, but as stated earlier wont be surprised if Minny wins.

 

[VikingsAD28]

Pack as long as AR is healthy, they will take division

Like last year?

 

[anotheridiot]

follow the legitimate quarterbacks.

Green Bay
Minnesota
Chicago and detroit tied, (basically the same QB)

Now, if Rodgers is hurt, its all up for grabs, but if Cutler gets hurt, bears chances should improve.

 

[sonnyblack65]

Like last year?

Obviously no wiseguy

 

[packfancjh]

Vikings. The won the division last year, didn't lose much from what I can recall, and they have the best player in the division.

When did the Vikings get Rodgers on their roster?

 

[packfancjh]

Vikings.

Defense wins.

Minn - 11-5
Pack - 9-7

The Pack is going 9-7 with the easiest schedule in the league? Who's your dealer? I want some

 

[DHoey]

When did the Vikings get Rodgers on their roster?

Richard Rodgers is still still a Packer as far as I know, but regardless, he isn't the best player in the division anyway.

 

[packfancjh]

Yeah, it's all about the Packers. Has nothing do to with the Vikes being younger and better all around.

The pack has an average age of 26.8 whereas the Vikes are 27.2. and statistically the Pack is the better team. The Pack's offense typically blows MN out of the water and the defensive statistics are a lot closer than most probably realize.

Def Pack MN
Pts/gm 20.2 18.9
Yards 5547 5507
ry/gm 119.1 109.3

Like last year?

Rodgers had knee surgery shortly after our loss to AZ in the playoffs so no he was not fully healthy last year

 

[SeizeTheCarp]

I can't help but really like the Packers chances of retaking the North next year. Nelson played zero snaps last year, so he had the same impact on the Packers offense last year as Treadwell did for the Vikings. I like Nelson's chances of having a bigger impact this year.

Peterson led the league in rushing last year, but showed signs of slowing down in the second half. While Lacy has already dropped 20-30 pounds and looks significantly healthier than last year. I look for Lacy to have a better season than last year, while Peterson will likely tail off.

Both teams improved their O-lines by draft/free agency/recovered injuries. And say what you want about Jared Cook, but he does upgrade the position for the Packers by a pretty good margin.
The Vikings defense played very well last year, but the Packers D gave up only 1.3 fewer points per game than the Vikings. What does that say about them? Both squads are young and improving, so, even if the Vikings improve by a wider margin than the Packers, it's not like that margin will be anything significant.

Throw in the QB factor, and I really can't see the Packer NOT winning the division.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

GB and Minny are really good teams, but I think the difference is a healthy AR over Teddy. GB takes the north.

 

[SonnyCID]

I really like Zimmer.

And I think his players responded better to him in 15 than McCarthy's did, and I wouldn't be shocked to see that trend continue.
