NFL Picks and Predictions – Week 1

Packers vs. Bears

This is an NFC North matchup between a team in the Chicago Bears that has a new head coach and are trying re-establish themselves as a contender in the division.  Quarterback Jay Cutler is looking to forget last season and the Bears should be a team this season under John Fox.

However, even though it’s a road game in the division the Packers still have arguably the best player in the league in quarterback Aaron Rodgers and I don’t think the Bears will able to keep up with the Packers offense.

It might be closer than some think but the Packers will take this one.       NFL Picks
