Green Bay Packers made an overwhelming comeback right before the start of the 2025 NFL season facing a huge change in betting odds.
The NFL season draws closer and fans are eager to place their bets on their favorite teams with only one week left to go. The fans of the NFC North division were witnesses to a major change today. The Green Bay Packers, which was already a strong team to start with, landed Micah Parsons in a trade with the Dallas Cowboys. Parsons and Packers are being hailed as the dream combination for the Super Bowl.
However, before a team reaches the playoffs, they need to clear the divisions first in order to qualify for a potential shot at the Super Bowl. The Green Bay Packers are part of the NFC North division, which consists of teams – Detroit Lions, Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Bears. The odds for the division winner for the NFL 2025 season are already available on FanDuel.
The NFC North winner odds as of August 2025 from FanDuel are listed below –
| Team | Odds |
| Green Bay Packers | +165 |
| Detroit Lions | +185 |
| Minnesota Vikings | +360 |
| Chicago Bears | +600 |
The Green Bay Packers are now leading the NFC North division odds. According to many NFL experts, their team is easily one of the best contender for the Super Bowl this season.
Micah Parsons’ trade to the Packers created a major impact in the league. The aftereffects can be seen in the winning odds of the NFC North division. Until the trade, the Detroit Lions had the odds in their favor. However, the arrival of Parsons has created a rift in betting predictions.
The Green Bay Packers was an amazing team last season. They had 11 victories throughout the season with one divisional victory. The Packers’ defense was the main reason for their success. To top it off, they lost their starting quarterback to injury in the first week of the season.
Ahead of the 2025 season, the Green Bay Packers have both Jordan Love and Micah Parsons in their arsenal. This roster is a terrific combination that complements the already strong defense of the Green Bay Packers.
The Packers defense was fifth in the 2025 NFL Rankings, losing out to the Miami Dolphins by a narrow margin. Jordan Love is also set to make a comeback after his injury. As a result of these developments, the Green Bay Packers are now the favorites in the NFC North, toppling the former leaders – the Detroit Lions.
However, the Lions are not far behind. As per information available on FanDuel, they only have slightly lower odds than the Packers. The Lions are the defending back-to-back champions in the division. Similar to the Packers, they have a well-balanced roster of players.
Setting their players aside, there is also a major factor in play while deciding the winner odds between the two teams. The strength of schedule of the Green Bay Packers is comparatively easier than that of the Detroit Lions. In comparison, the Lions are facing one of the toughest strengths of schedule during the NFL 2025 season. While the Packers are currently the favorites in their division and possibly the NFL Super Bowl odds, the real story will only unfold once the season starts.
