The NFC North is shaping up to be a challenging division to win, with three teams making the playoffs last season. Still, one NFL expert predicts the Green Bay Packers will come out on top for the first time since 2021.
Last season, the Packers made the playoffs, going 11-6 and finishing third in the division with the Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions possessing a better record than Green Bay.
Nonetheless, the Vikings are counting on a rookie quarterback in J.J. McCarthy, and the Lions lost offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, now the Chicago Bears' head coach. As a result, CBS Sports' Senior NFL Columnist Pete Prisco believes 2025 will be the season in which the Packers win the division.
