Message: <blockquote data-quote="TOPackerFan" data-source="post: 18275" data-attributes="member: 28">digs, I thought the Queens OL protected well in the first two preseason games, but opened no holes for any RBs.  I also found it interesting that Sharper was in mid-season form, blowing coverages and missing tackles like it was week 8.  This division is going to be a lot closer than anyone thinks.  The Queens may have the most talent on paper, though I'm not even convinced of that, but front runner is not a good role for them and they never seem to come up big when people expect them to win.  Detroit has a good D and a lot of weapons on O, but they still have Joey Heatherton at QB.  The Bears have a great D, but, like has been the case for as long as I can remember, no one at QB.  Orton may be a player in the future, but I wouldn't want to pin my hopes on a rookie QB.We have questions on the OL, though I've seen steady improvement and have confidence that Larry B will get it done by Week 1.  No one is under any illusions that our D is going to be dominating, but we have athletes who hit on it for the first time in at least five years.  The players are also in position to make plays and seem to have been taught how to tackle again (though this still can improve).  The D has improved steadily and will continue to do so as the young players mature and as the vets learn the scheme.  I honestly could see us going anywhere from 12-4 (though I think that's unlikely) to 8-8 (though I think that's unlikely as well).  With the way that Brett has looked in the pre-season, I'd say we'll win a couple of close games and finish 10-6 or 11-5 to clinch a 4th straight NFC North title.  The Queens will finish 10-6 or 9-7 and take a wild card.  The Lions could go 6-10 or could go 10-6 if Joey matures, so I'm going to split the difference and predict 8-8 for them.  The Bears are in for another losing season I think given their deficiencies at QB.  I say they finish 7-9 or 6-10 because that D will win them a few games (though none against the Packers).</blockquote>
