The Green Bay Packers entered last season as an intriguing team.
No one knew what to expect from them in the first year of the post-Aaron Rodgers era.
There were some doubts about whether Jordan Love was the guy they needed to lead the way.
It didn’t take long before they silenced the doubters, closing the year on a high note and going far in the playoffs.
Now, despite their youth, they are considered legitimate dark horses to win the Super Bowl.
The Packers have lived up to that distinction this season.
While they don’t have the best record in the NFC, Michael Vick likes their chances against anybody.
Talking on FOX Sports ahead of Sunday’s slate, the legendary quarterback endorsed them as the team no one wanted to face in the NFC.

Judging by what we’ve seen so far this season, he’s right on point.
Even if they lost to the Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions, the Packers have proven they can win on the road during the Matt LaFleur era.
They have a plethora of talent on offense, and Jeff Hafley has done an outstanding job of turning their defense around in his first season as their defensive coordinator.
The Packers will most likely be on the road in the playoffs, and they’re not as experienced as other teams.
Even so, there’s no reason to believe this team can’t get the job done against any opponent they come across.
