4. Green Bay Packers

With a one-game lead over the Minnesota Vikings, the Green Bay Packers continue to control their own destiny to win the NFC North title, and after taking down the New York Giants in Week 13, the team has another favorable matchup against the Washington Redskins.

Despite the Redskins showing some surprise life in recent weeks, a game at Lambeau Field with an inexperienced rookie quarterback in Dwayne Haskins should result in an easy win for the Packers to continue holding a strong lead over the Vikings.

But after watching Washington pull off a surprise win on the road this past Sunday against the Carolina Panthers that played a part in Ron Rivera losing his job, maybe there is hope for the Redskins upsetting the Packers.

Knowing Aaron Rodgers, the Green Bay star quarterback will most likely do what he does best by making sure the offense shreds Washington’s defense early on to help the Packers build an early lead.

If not, well Green Bay better hope they don’t see the same thing happen to them what took place in Carolina, or Minnesota will try to take advantage of the opportunity after failing to come up short on Monday in a loss to the Seattle Seahawks.
