The NFC North is not just the home to the Detroit Lions but also the home to the Chicago Bears, Minnesota Vikings, and Green Bay Packers, all of whom have gotten off to good defensive starts.

This week we’ll discuss the state of the team as they prepare to face the Philadelphia Eagles this Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field in the city of brotherly love.
