'Packin' the NFC North: Sorry Brett Favuruh...


            Ok, lets make this easy...
First of all lets get rid of the animal mascots and we can chalk it up to global warming.  Here is what I know: the Lions have gotten better, they are closing the gap, AND they still aren’t great and still won’t win.  The Bears are the Bears and even if you put the Packers or the Vikings in Bears Jerseys they would lose, because they are the Bears and that’s how it works. 
Simply put, Jay Cutler, big arm quarterbacks don’t succeed in the NFL (see: JRussel, Kyle SuperBoller, Rex Grossman) especially if they have a bad attitude (see: the above list). 
            Now that the obvious is out of the way, the question turns to can Favre repeat and have his former Packers improved enough on defense and the offensive line?  
Towards the end of the year the Packers showed that the O line was improving and with a healthy group coming back...wooooooo.  Logic dictates that Favre is going to decline. If he came back on his own they would be better, but the fact that his team mates came to get him will make him feel like he has Cart’e Blanche to be himself and throw picks.  In addition the loss of Chester Taylor is going to cost them more than they know, All Day can’t do that in the NFL the way he plays. 
My prediction: Packers, Vikings, Lions (what the hell), and Da Bears (may Ditka have mercy on my soul)
