Re: Around the NFL: NFC North

Vikings 10-6: A team full of guys looking to prove something. Culpepper wants to show he's the reason for Moss's success and not the other way around. Bennett wants to stay healthy and contribute. Smoot always plays with a chip on his shoulders. Burleson wants to show he's the man at WR and that they don't need Moss to win. Overall a better team this year than last with a much improved Defense and a better team feel (thanks to Moss's departure).

Packers 9-7: The loss of two starting pro-bowl caliber guards takes its toll on a once mighty offensive line. Favre and Green struggle as a result. One of the top 2 or 3 WR corps. in the league, but too much to overcome on defense to keep the Packers rolling through the NFC North.

Lions 8-8: Gotta love Kevin Jones and a great, young WR corp. Still skeptical about the defense and the QB. QB controversey plagues them throughout the year and they miss the playoffs even with one of the most talented offenses in the league.

Bears 4-12: The defense is the only thing that keeps the Bears from snagging next year's #1 draft pick away from either the Browns or Titans. Without Grossman (and maybe even with him), this team stuggles on offense (even with two very strong RBs). They will only start seeing some of their 4 wins after realizing they need to name Kyle Orton as the starter. Mushin Muhammad hangs himself at season's end after suffering the single greatest dropoff in production over one year for a WR in the history of the NFL and realizing that there really is more to football than money. Darkhorse prediction: Benson finds a way to get himself suspended for at least a few games in his rookie year.
