The Green Bay Packers went 11-6 last season before falling to the Philadelphia Eagles in the first round last year. However, Jordan Love’s injury and lack of consistency hinted that Green Bay has another level to reach. The Packers front office gave head coach Matt LaFleur a new weapon during the draft in Matthew Golden. If Green Bay chases players like Tyreek Hill, the sky’s the limit.
The Packers have had an intriguing offseason highlighted by a historic draft selection and not much else. While a quiet training camp could be viewed as a problem, it is a blessing in disguise. For the first time in a while, Green Bay enters the regular season without a lot of media attention, setting the stage for the team to take off. In short, the Packers are set up for success.
Last season, LaFleur’s offense had its ups and downs. Josh Jacobs, for one, hit the ground running in Green Bay’s running game. If he repeats that kind of production, the Packers’ offense might be on of the most balanced attack in the NFL. Improvement on the defensive end of the ball should also play a big role in the team taking a step forward next season.

However, all three teams are still in the early years of what could become a dynastic run in the NFC playoff picture. Despite how bright their futures are, the Packers have the easiest road to success early on.
Green Bay has bolstered its offensive line with its latest move on the trade market. LaFleur and his staff have everything they need to put together a devastating offense in 2025. However, what sets the Packers apart from the rest of their division is their quarterback. Jared Goff is the only one who can compare to Love, and the latter carries a much higher ceiling as the signal-caller.
Another thing going in Green Bay’s favor is its schedule. Compared to the rest of the NFC North, the Packers have the easiest path through the season, according to ESPN. However, playing against the rest of what should be a talented division makes things difficult, regardless of the rest of their schedule. Despite that, Green Bay...
