DK:
Look to Favre to throw mid-range passes early in the year, or, perhaps, throughout the whole season if he has truly signed. Which means he'll be facing Brian Urlacher, Lance Briggs, and company. Which makes a big difference.
Rekna:
The Vikings will be facing a couple of pretty good front sevens in the Black and Blue.
The Packers have a line with three first rounders on it (Raji, Pickett, Harrell), a linebacking corps with three first rounders (Matthews, Hawk, and Barnett - the most underrated linebacker in the game) and Aaron fucking Kampman, who, in the OTA's, has been lauded over by pundits and sports journalists.
The Lions have the new trio of Sims, Peterson, and Foote which makes, in my opinion, one of the best linebacking corps in the league. They just brought in a monster nose tackle in Grady Jackson, and have Cliff Avril coming in on his second year which seems promising.
The Bears, I've already talked about their LB's, but their line is very underrated and can be devestating.
I don't expect the Vikes to destroy this year, nor do I expect the Bears. If anyone is going to have shocking success it'll be the Lions (not claiming a playoff berth, but they have a much better team then last year. Substantially better in every way - except o-line). I think the pack will surprise too. But with the Vikes you have a terrible, terrible coach and Chicago is too unreliable. I expect that to continue.
