Prediction
Green Bay Packers OVER 11 (-120) Season Wins
The
Green Bay Packers are a football organization that wants to win and
they prove it year in and out by their offseason moves. We can pretty
much expect another dominant regular season by the Packers once again.
They kept the right guys and removed the guys that won’t hugely impact
their performance. Rodgers has proved to be in the top tier conversation
of quarterbacks in the NFL and Lacy had a very solid season last year.
They will easily win the NFC North and either finish 1st or 2nd in the
NFC Conference. Home field advantage is huge for a team that plays in an
outdoor stadium such as Lambeu Field as the conditions get very harsh
in January. I really think the only team who poses a threat to the
Packers in the postseason is the Seattle Seahawks and the Packers
themselves. They must keep Rodgers and the supporting cast healthy to
make a run at another Super Bowl win. If they can be 80% healthy or
higher, we will see this team in the 2015-16 Super Bowl.
