Two things are certain in the NFC North this season. Chicago will not place a league-high 19 players on injured reserve and the Bears will not win the division in 2017. First, head coach John Fox will have to figure out which quarterback is going to start. The Bears spent $45 million to get free agent Mike Glennon, who hasn’t started a game since 2014, and then drafted Mitchell Trubisky with the second overall pick in this year’s draft. Rookie quarterbacks usually do not fare too well and Trubisky has all of 13 starts to his name since playing high school football.
Chicago started last season 0-3 for the second consecutive year. It’s likely that happens again in 2017. The Bears face Atlanta, Tampa Bay on the road, and Pittsburgh in the first three weeks of the season. A .500 season would be a stretch for Chicago and they are presumably going to finish in the division’s basement again.
Detroit Lions
Odds to win the NFC north division: +600
Green Bay’s primary competition is likely to come from the Detroit Lions, a team that made the playoffs last year. Like Green Bay, Detroit will go as far as its quarterback – Matthew Stafford – takes it. Stafford had one of his best seasons throwing for 4,327 yards and 24 touchdowns. A healthy Ameer Abdullah helps the offense which has plenty of weapons. If draft picks Teez Tabor and Jarrad Davis can step in right away and contribute, the defense will be that much better. The Lions were 9-3 at one point last year but finished the season with four straight losses primarily because of a defense that gave up 377.5 yards and 29 points a game.
Green Bay Packers
Odds to win the NFC north division: +150
Green Bay will continue to be the favorite to win the division as long as QB Aaron Rodgers continues to play. No matter the atrocious Packers defense, with Rodgers running the show on offense there is always a chance. The Packers signed Martellus Bennett and drafted three running backs to help the running game. Ty Montgomery, a former receiver, will now become a full-time running back as well, so Green Bay has plenty of offensive weapons.
Defensively, the Packers were weak in the secondary last season. Green Bay was 31st in the NFL in pass defense giving up 269.3 yards per game. Only New Orleans was worse. That will have to change if they Packers are to control the division in 2017.
Minnesota Vikings
Odds to win the NFC north division: +140
The Minnesota Vikings could be the surprise team in the division. Last year, the Vikings battled through some serious adversity to start the season 5-0. Quarterback Teddy Bridgewater went down with a serious knee injury in camp and then RB Adrian Peterson (now in New Orleans) suffered a torn meniscus in Week 2. After the successful start to the season, the Vikings won just three more games and became just the sixth team in NFL history to win their first five games and then miss the postseason.
Sam Bradford will start at quarterback again after setting a career high last year with 3,877 yards. Bradford was the lone bright spot though on an offense that was 28th in the league in total yards. If the Minnesota defense can get back to its 2015 level, the Vikings may have a shot at a playoff berth. The division title? That’s probably Green Bay’s to lose.

2017 NFL Football Playoffs
CHICAGO (CBS) — To say that the 2019 season was a disappointment for the Chicago Bears is an understatement. Projected to compete for the division title, the Bears reached the season’s midway point with a 3-5 record and never really recovered. They finished 8-8 and missed the playoffs.
Many factors contributed to their subpar showing… poor quarterback play, bad blocking, injuries, a strong division. Former number-two pick Mitchell Trubisky deserved a big share of the blame after regressing in his third season. His offensive line didn’t help matters. And injuries are a concern for every NFL team. Some of the drop-off could be interpreted as the rise of their rivals.

Over 61,000 Unemployment Claims Filed In Illinois Last Week Amid COVID-19 PandemicThe NFC North was one of the NFL’s more competitive divisions last season, with both the Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers exceeding their projected win totals. And the NFL Draft has only made it more competitive. The Vikings filled needs in the early rounds at wide receiver, offensive line and cornerback and, with 15 total picks, may ultimately turn over almost a third of their roster. Meanwhile, the Packers used their first-round pick on a quarterback to replace Aaron Rodgers, one of the NFL’s best ever, rather than a wide receiver for him to throw to. The Detroit Lions improved with the addition of physical corner Jeff Okudah and versatile running back D’Andre Swift, but it won’t be enough to get them out of the division cellar.
The Bears, with only two second-round picks in the first four rounds, did what they could in the draft. Tight end Cole Kmet in particular should give Trubisky a solid outlet in the passing game. Cornerback Jaylon Johnson could prove to be a valuable starter as well. But a move made in free agency could yield the best return.

“I like the the pickup of Nick Foles,” says SportsLine analyst Kenny White. “I think that makes Mitchell Trubisky that much better of a quarterback. I think the competition, makes Trubisky better. And Foles will also give him a lot of experience that he needs to win that job and to succeed during the season.”
Foles is only a few years removed from leading the Philadelphia Eagles to a Super Bowl win. And if Trubisky continues to regress, the Bears now have a proven leader who can step in and take over.

As White notes, “the Bears defense was outstanding last year.” And there’s no reason to believe they can’t pick up where they left off, especially with Robert Quinn bolstering the pass rush. But it will be up to Trubisky to manage the game on the offensive side.

If the Bears’ offense can be more than dead weight, the team will certainly be in the playoff mix come December. Las Vegas thinks they could rise to the challenge, even if their projected win total sits at 8.5 games. ‘Chicago [is] 9-2 right now to win the division,” according to White, “maybe the team with the best odds and the most value to bet to win the division.”
