The best thing I saw on this list is Seattle on the outside looking in! ;)

Three NFC North teams in at about the half-way point. I would not have predicted that.

I was a little worried about Chicago sitting at 6-1, but then I peeked at their schedule. After they play Tennessee, they are going to be tested:

Home vs. Houston
Away vs. San Fran
Home vs. Minnesota
Home vs. Seattle
Away vs. Minnesota
Home vs. Green Bay
Away vs. Arizona
Away vs. Detroit

It's not a stretch to see them loosing half of those games.

Packers still have a legitimate chance of winning the division provided they Beat the Bears in Chicago.
