Prediction: 12-4, 1st place NFC North
The divisional games will be tough and I don't see the Lions beating the Bears twice this season. We've won the last 6 match ups against them so I think we're due for a loss against them. I expect to also split with the Packers and Vikings.
Those first four games are going to be tough but if we come out 2-2 at the very least we should be at the very least in a Wildcard seed.
This team has all the talent in the world and it starts at QB. I really am expecting this offense to be Top 3 in the league in most key categories. And I think we're going to have a hell of a defense.
The Lions and Matthew Stafford separate themselves from the middle of the league and hit that 11-5 to 13-3 perinial playoff contender for the next 5 years.
No more 8-8, 9-7 bullshit. Consistent offensive play from Quarters 1-4 and a ball hawking defense.
