This should be a very competitive division in 2016. It sent two teams to the playoffs last year and we predict the same this season.
Chicago Bears
John Fox enters his second season as head coach in Chicago. He lost his offensive coordinator Adam Gase to the Dolphins. Kevin White, the Bears former first round pick, missed all of 2015 due to injury. Will he become the go-to receiver for Jay Cutler?
Detroit Lions
The Lions won three in a row to close out the 2015 season and 6 of their final 8. Calvin Johnson surprisingly retired in the offseason leaving questions on offense. Marvin Jones was signed in free agency away from Cincinnati and will be expected to fill Johnson’s shoes.
Green Bay Packers
Jordy Nelson was lost in training camp last year and his loss had a big impact on the offense. They fell to 15th in scoring after finishing 2014 as the top scoring team in the league.
Even without Aaron Rodgers’ top target last year, they still made the playoffs and won a playoff game on the road. The Pack will be back in the playoffs in 2016.
Minnesota Vikings
The Vikings capped the regular season with a huge road win in Green Bay to win the NFC North. They followed that up though with a disappointing home playoff loss the next week to Seattle on a missed FG in the final seconds.
The Vikings are in their new stadium this year which should help energize them heading to 2016. They’ll be back in the playoffs.
