Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will lead the Packers again next year. Jeff Hanisch-US PRESSWIRE
The Packers have been tabbed as the team with the best chance of winning next year’s Super Bowl. Not that we put much credence into the oddsmakers, it’s nice they think highly enough of the Packers to place them in that spot.
But let’s take a look at the other end of the spectrum. While the Packers are 6-1 odds to win the big game, at the other end are the Cleveland Browns and Jacksonville Jaguars sitting at 100-1. Not far behind are the Minnesota Vikings at 75-1 odds.
Think about all the teams that have gone from worst to first. Think about the New York Giants and the fact they at one point stood 7-7 near the end of last season and ended up winning it all. It happens. Think about the Packers who came out of nowhere to win the Super Bowl in 2010.
So, if you were to pick a longshot team to win next year’s Super Bowl … who would it be?
Take today’s poll and let us know.

I am an award-winning journalist and photographer and have been editor of two weekly newspapers in northern Wisconsin for the past 23 years.
My love of the Green Bay Packers moved me to write columns for select websites in the mid- to late-1990s under the pen name of Apackphan. The opportunity to continue with lombardiave.com under that same pen name has been rewarding. Getting back into blogging has allowed me to renew the love of a team I have followed since I was a young boy.
