The Green Bay Packers odds of winning the NFC North division in 2016 were coming in at -320 as the biggest favorite in any of the six divisions.
Expectations for the Packers have been high in recent years, This season oddsmakers have Green Bay winning 11 regular season games, though they are slightly favored to win less than that.
Green Bay is now the favorite, a half point ahead of the Patriots, at 7-1 odds to win the 2017 Super Bowl.
Aaron Rodgers is 45-9 as a host the past seven years. An injured Rodgers suffered through three home losses last season.
WalterSports notes that the early portion of the Packers schedule appears to be a cakewalk.
Green Bay has a very easy start to its season. Of the first nine games, seven contests are against the Jaguars, Lions, Giants (home), Cowboys (home), Bears, Falcons and Titans. In fact, the Packers are favored in every single contest this year per the early Vegas lines, save for one: Week 2 at Minnesota.
Odds to Win the NFC North
Green Bay Packers -320
Minnesota Vikings 4-1
Detroit Lions 18-1
Chicago Bears 20-1
