Green Bay Packers: 5 Bold predictions for the 2018 season
The Packers win Super Bowl 53
Even if two of the previous four predictions happen, the Green Bay Packers have a really good chance of winning their fifth Super Bowl trophy. Of course, it’s easier said than done. The Packers have had great teams for years and still couldn’t win the big one. However, there is something about this Packers team that stands out from the rest.
Aaron Rodgers is likely to go on a tear this year. He got paid and he knows that he needs to prove his worth. Another Super Bowl trophy would certainly suffice. All the pieces just seem to come together. Rodgers return gives this team a spark. The numerous improvements make this team scarier. The front office is finally competent, and the coaching staff has become a lot better overall.
However, the journey there is going to be tough. The NFC is loaded with at least ten teams that will compete for six playoff spots. There will be teams that deserve to make it in but won’t. One of those teams could be the Packers. With the Patriots, Vikings, Rams, Falcons, and 49ers on their schedule, there are numerous must-win games if they want to make the playoffs.

This is nothing new to Rodgers and Co. though. It has always been a difficult path for Green Bay. Aaron Rodgers needs another Super Bowl on his résumé — 2018 might be the year he gets it done.
