2. Packers go 13-3

The Packers have a very inconsistent schedule. They begin the season with three of their first four at home and all the games are very winnable. Then, following their bye in Week 7, they play at the Los Angeles Rams, at the New England Patriots, home against the Miami Dolphins followed up by two road games against Seattle and Minnesota. It gets a bit easier from there on out, but the damage might already be done.

The good news is the Packers have enough talent to weather the storm. By the time the barrage hits in Week 8, the Packers rookie cornerbacks will have a few games under their belt and will be able to hold their own.

The three losses the Packers take come pretty close together at Los Angeles, at New England and at Minnesota. Following the game against the Vikings, the Packers will be able to regroup and gain some momentum heading into the playoffs. Get ready for a great season.
