Here are five reasons why the Green Bay Packers will win the NFC North in 2019.

The Green Bay Packers‘ dominance in the NFC North has come to an end in recent years. After winning the division title eight times in 13 seasons between 2002 and 2014, including four years in a row, the Packers have now finished in first place just once in the past four seasons.

The Minnesota Vikings have two division titles in that time, and it’s now the Chicago Bears who enter the new season as defending champions.

But after big changes were made in Green Bay this offseason, the Packers will be hoping they can get back to the top of the NFC North mountain and make a run for the Super Bowl. It’s been three years since the Packers last won the division, with the Vikings and Bears taking the title the past two seasons.

In fact, Green Bay hasn’t even finished in the top two in the past couple of seasons, with back-to-back third-place finishes.

But as the Bears proved last season, things can change very quickly in the NFL, especially with a new head coach. And that’s the plan for the Packers this season. And this team has a great opportunity to bounce back and regain the NFC North crown in 2019.
