A capsule look at the NFC North heading into the 2025 season, with teams listed in predicted order of finish.

BetMGM says: Win Super Bowl: 10-1; Over-under win total: 10.5

Strengths: Their championship window won’t last forever, but the Lions still field a pretty complete roster. They have exceptional playmakers on both sides of the ball, especially the elite backfield duo of Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Biggest reason for optimism: Defensive end Aidan Hutchinson is back from the season-ending leg injury that loomed over Detroit’s 45-31 divisional-round loss to Washington.
