NFC North Future Bets

The Chicago Bears appear as though they will romp to a third consecutive NFC North title, as they attempt to reach the Super Bowl and avenge their 29-17 loss to Indianapolis last season.

The Bears are big favorites at 1/3 odds at Bodog, and have Brian Griese as an insurance marker in case Rex Grossman fumbles the starting quarterback job. The Bears also hope Cedric Benson can handle the majority of the backfield work with the loss of Thomas Jones to the Jets. Brian Urlacher is still around to marshal a very tough defense, so watch for the Bears in the postseason.

The Green Bay Packers are next at 4/1, and Brett Favre has decided to return for one more season at Lambeau Field. Favre has been on the decline for several seasons, but it is always hard to bet against such a great competitor. He was quite unhappy about the Packers' inability to get Randy Moss, but at least Favre still has the dependable - and very underrated - Donald Driver on the receiving end of his passes.

The Minnesota Vikings are right behind the Packers at 5/1, and would have made the playoffs if not for a second-half slide out of the race last season. The Vikings managed to pick up Adrian Peterson from Oklahoma, and he is a player who can start immediately. He may have an initiation by fire, as the quarterback and receivers situation does not look bright for the Vikings. Their defense, however, may give them a slight edge over the Packers for the No. 2 spot.

The Lions are on the bottom at 13/2, but No. 2 pick Calvin Johnson has been touted as the best receiver to come along in years, and Jon Kitna has proven to be a guy who can run a team in transition. Still, the Lions will likely spend another season in the NFC North basement.
