Through the first five weeks of the 2024 NFL season, the NFC North has become the most competitive division in the league.
In Week 5, the Minnesota Vikings found a way to remain unbeaten despite quarterback Sam Darnold coming back to earth, Caleb Williams had his fourth consecutive game setting a new career-high passer rating, and Jordan Love led a furious comeback victory for the Green Bay Packers, all while the division-leading and Super Bowl favorite Detroit Lions rested on their bye week.
So, who better to take the temperature on the NFC North division than Pro Football Hall of Famer and former Packers safety LeRoy Butler?
Butler joins to give his take on who emerges atop the NFC North, plus his thoughts on what’s powering Xavier McKinney’s fast start and Jordan Love’s strides in his development.
