The Detroit Lions have been all the talk around the NFC North. However, the Green Bay Packers have also put forward an impressive stretch of performances. They have come out victorious in seven of their last nine games, despite a pedestrian start to the season. The division was decided after the Lions took down the Packers for the second time this season in Week 14, but the Packers still cannot afford to let their guard down. In a loaded NFC that features the likes of the Los Angeles Rams, Tampa Buccaneers, and the Minnesota Vikings, securing a spot in the playoffs won’t be an easy task.
The Seattle Seahawks got off to a scorching start in the 2023 season. They were one of just four teams to start the year 3-0. Since their hot start, the Seahawks have come down to earth at bit, but their 8-5 record still has them on top of the NFC West. But in a division where the Seahawks, Rams, Cardinals, and 49ers are all separated by less than two games, no team can afford any missteps. A win or loss could be the difference between making the playoffs or being on the outside looking in.
So whether you are rooting for a clear favorite or hoping for a miracle by the underdog, the most important thing to remember is that you must be in it to win it.
