As explained in the Team-by-Team Thread, I am planning on making a thread every four days for a different team. The first few posts will be questions, requests for predictions, etc. There will be a poll unless I don't feel like making one. Some teams are less interesting than others. Please participate in posting articles, predictions, etc.

I think the Pack will contend for the NFC against Seattle. As long as AR is upright they should be ok, but if he goes down the team is average.

I feel that the Packers are one of the 3 best teams in the NFC, so I went with my typical prediction for an individual contender (lose in Divisional round. There are just too many factors to predict anything better than that).

But they have one of the best QBs in the NFL, one of the best 10 RBs, an above average Oline and possibly the best WR group in the league.

Their pass D was middle of the road last year, but their run D improved greatly in the second half of the season. So long as they don't have any crushing injuries, I do not see why they won't contend for the Super Bowl again.

Packers will either face Dallas or Seattle in the NNFCCG game. Unfortunately for Packer fans I think they lose. Hoping I'm wrong though.

Packers win the division and lose to the Cowboys who lose to the Rams who lose to the Patriots in SB 50 on a last second field goal....

For this team it all comes down to health. If we have very few injuries there is no reason why we won't compete for the SB. The offense will be better and the defense stepped up big time the second half of the season. Raji back from injury, Hawk and Jones gone and a new youth movement in the secondary has this D trending up.

The Packers will field the best Offence for the 2015 Season. The Defense , IMO, is yet to be evaluated. I believe that the Vikings will prove to be the Packers toughest competitor in the NFC North. They should make the playoffs, but beyond that will depend upon the play of the Defense.

It appears not

Rodgers yards for the season will not go down, he will spread the ball around more and several players will make up for the yards that Nelson would have had. Rodgers has done this in the past.

They wont turn into a hand off to Lacy type of team

Rodgers always gives them a chance to make playoffs... how much defense and special teams improves dictates how much further they can go in the playoffs. Special teams was big achilles heal last year and run defense.

Obviously injuries during season can derail any chances as well... as for all teams.
