The Pack is Back -- In Expectations, At Least

Don Banks of SI.com has just released his predictions for the 2009 NFL season, and he has even higher expectations for the Packers than Peter King did.

King, you recall, predicted that the Packers would win a wild card berth, eventually losing to the Bears in the NFC Championship Game. Banks, meanwhile, predicts that the Packers will win their division outright, and eventually go on to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl against the New England Patriots. Both King and Banks expect New England to go all the way and win the Super Bowl this year.)

Here is the link to Banks' playoff picture: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/don_banks/09/03/2009.predictions/index.html

These great expectations are exciting to read. Of course, in just about a week, expectations will be replaced by reality. Will that be as exciting?
