In fantasy football, it would be no surprise for a fan of any team in the NFC North to pass on a rival player from another NFC team in a fantasy draft. In 2010, the NFC North became one of the league’s strongest divisions, and the home of the Super Bowl Champion Packers. Continue reading
Now that the Packers have returned to their elite status, Packer fans want, need, and even crave another Vince Lombardi trophy after finishing 10-6 in 2010. The Packers dominated their opponents at home (7-1) but had their share of problems on the road (3-5). Continue reading
The Bears finished 11-5 in 2010 (5-3 at home, 6-2 on the road) and dominated the division at 5-1.

The Giants were equally good at home (5-3) as on the road (5-3), but couldn’t quite dominate the division (3-3). Continue reading
