During June and July, it can be a slow time for NFL news.
Most teams look to even their rosters after training camp, but for the most part, major moves have already been made.
This is a good time for analysts to make their predictions based on the information they have access to.
On a recent episode of ‘Speak,’ Joy Taylor revealed one of her predictions for the NFC North.
“I think the Packers are going to be the worst team in the division,” Taylor said.

The Packers have won the NFC North three times in the past five seasons.
They’ve gotten used to being in the playoffs almost every year, mostly because of the success of Aaron Rodgers.
Now that he’s gone, though, many believe they’ll have a hard time, especially in Jordan Love’s first year at the helm.
Taylor and many others believe that the Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions are the favorites to win the division.
In this segment, Taylor went on to say that the Packers will be the worst team in the division, even though the Chicago Bears are coming off a 3-14 season.
Many sportsbooks seem to agree with Taylor, as DraftKings currently gives the Packers the best odds to win the division.
Although Love is new to his role on the team, other aspects of the roster are similar to last season.
Their defense has remained mostly intact and their offense is about the same, minus Rodgers, Allen Lazard and Marcedes Lewis.
