8. vs. Minnesota Vikings

After failing to reach the playoffs last season, don’t be surprised if the Vikings are back in contention this year after a solid offseason. With an improved offensive line, they’ll be a tough team to beat home and away. As this game is at Lambeau Field, the Packers will be slight favorites.

7. vs. Chicago Bears

How the Bears didn’t win at Lambeau Field last season will always be a mystery. After throwing away 20-0 lead in the season opener, the Bears would go on to win 12 of their next 15 games and secure the NFC North title. One of the reasons they were so good last year was their ability to win on the road — they finished the regular season with an impressive 5-3 record away from Soldier Field.

6. at Minnesota Vikings

The Packers are without a victory in three attempts at the Vikings’ new home, and there’s a reason for that. Vikings fans always ensure it’s loud indoors, making it a challenging environment for the road team. And this Vikings team is also very talented. This will be a huge test for the Packers — and a potentially must-win game — late in the season.

5. vs. Philadelphia Eagles

Including the playoffs, the Eagles won five games on the road last season. The 2017 Super Bowl champions drafted well this spring and they will again compete for the NFC East title this season.
