1. Detroit Lions

It will be interesting to see how they adjust to the loss of both offensive and defensive coordinators, but the return of DE Aidan Hutchinson should help a lot.

2. Green Bay Packers

The time is now to see if this current iteration of the Packers can finally punch their ticket towards a Super Bowl.

3. Minnesota Vikings

The J.J. McCarthy era was delayed by one season. He has a plethora of weapons at his disposal and a defense that can get after the quarterback.

4. Chicago Bears

New head coach Ben Johnson comes with a lot of fanfare. Can he get QB Caleb Williams on track to live up to his number one overall draft selection?

1. Detroit Lions

Lessons were learned from last season and the secondary has been shored up. Time to see if they can take it all the way to a Super Bowl.

2. Green Bay Packers

They were one bad half away from getting to the NFC Championship game. Can QB Jordan Love repeat what he accomplished last season in his first year as the starter?

3. Chicago Bears

The reset button has been pushed at quarterback in Chicago once again. For their sake they better have gotten this one right.

4. Minnesota Vikings

We’ll have to wait until next year to see how rookie QB J.J. McCarthy does in Minnesota. For the time being QB Sam Darnold will be the replacement for the departed Kirk Cousins.
