The NFC North is a competitive division, and about two months from the season, it looks like a three-team race between Bears, Packers and Vikings.
Sorry, Lions.
Last season behind a stout defense, we saw the Bears dominate the division.
Barry Werner, our buddy from Touchdown Wire, predicts the Bears will once again win the division.
Here’s what Werner wrote about the Bears:
The Bears won 12 games and the division by a wide margin in the first year under Matt Nagy. Khalil Mack and the defense will only get better as they head into their second season. Mitchell Trubisky is going to miss Jordan Howard in the backfield, but Chicago is still stronger than Minnesota and Green Bay, which will duke it out for the second spot.
There are so many questions with this division. Can Chicago’s defense be elite for a second-straight season? Will Minnesota’s offensive line help Kirk Cousins succeed? How will Aaron Rodgers mesh with new coach Matt LaFleuer?
This division surely should be an entertaining one in 2019.
