2010 NFC North Rankings and Projected Records




4. Detroit Lions
2009 record 2-14
2010 Projetced Record 4-12
Lions are in year 2 of their rebuliding phase and they have a tough road ahead. They have great position players but Calvin Johnson, Matthew Stanfford, Javihd Best, and Brandon Pettigrew all come together on offense a make the lions a contender this year? Short Answer: NO and the Defense is an eye sore the biggest upside is they did draft Ndamukong Suh.
Offense- C-
Defense- D
Projected Wins: St. Louis Rams, Buffalo Bills, Tampa Bay Bucs, and The Philadelphia Eagles

3. Chicago Bears 
2009 record 7-9
2010 Projected record 9-7
 I feel that the Bears, Vikings, and Packers are just going to beat each other up all season long. the bears should be a little better on both signs of the ball they picked up Julius Peppers to help the D Line and Chester Taylor to help Matt Forte to remember how to run again add in Mike Martz and re energized Urlacher and the bears are posied to make another run whether or not that equals playoffs remains to be seen. So far in the preseason the defense has looked completly horrible with Julius Peppers being the only bright spot. The jury is still out on the offense although they have looked great at times the biggest weakness still looks to be the O line. They are still a year away from making some real noise in the NFC
Offense- B-
Defense- C-
Projected Loses: Packers,Vikings, Cowboys, Giants, Dolphins, Jets and New England.

2. Minnesota Vikings
2009 record 12-4
2010 Projected Record 10-6
The Vikings record is based upon if Brett Farve does manage to come back and play (without getting hurt) if he does they bring they high powered offense back with Adrian Peterson is back and Sidney Rice (who is going to miss the first half of the year) they offense shoudnt miss a beat. Their defense features Jared Allen & they williams boys is probably the best defensive line in the NFC.  Injuries have been a problem for them so far and the biggest question can Brett Farve Rekindle the magic he had last season and can he survive this seasson without getting injuried.
Projected loses: New Orleans, Packers, Bears, New England, Jets & Dallas

Offense- B
Defense- A
Projected loses: Saints, Packers, Bears
1. Greenbay Packers
2009 record 11-5
2010 Projected record 13-3

The division High powered offense is back with Aaron Rogers back with another year as a starter under his belt and their running game. The packers just might have the best quarterback in the NFC north they were swept by the vikings last year & everyone should expect the packers to sweep the vikes this year. So far in the preseason the packs look like they are in midseason form. 
Offense-A+
Defense- B
Projected loses: Bears, Patriots, and The Atlanta Falcons
