The Green Bay Packers have three games to go against the NFC North. Can they win each one?

Three games are left. All of them are against division opponents. The Green Bay Packers lead the way in the NFC North with a game against all of their rivals, and an opportunity to close out their first division win in three years. They enter Week 15 with a 10-3 record, sit in second position of the NFC and are close to securing a playoff berth.

Everything seems to be going well, right? Well, the wins are continuing to pile up, so yes. The Packers have lost three times, but bounced back each time with a victory the following week. Despite that, this doesn’t have the feel of a team about to turn it on in time for the playoffs.

The Packers made a fast start against the Washington Redskins, but as they often have this season, fell away after the opening quarter and ended up having to hold on late in the game. It’s one thing for that to happen against the Minnesota Vikings, a division rival on course for a playoff berth and still competing for the NFC North title. But against a three-win team at home? Then there’s some cause for concern.

But, a win is a win. And the Packers already have 10 in the bag, putting them in a strong position ahead of three games against familiar opponents.

They have one win over each NFC North team so far this season. Can they complete the sweep?
