Ditka picks Packers to win division, Butkus puts onus on 'D' to produce

For a couple of former Bears, Mike Ditka and Dick Butkus don't sound very supportive...

Ditka is an idiot.
I used to love when they made fun of him on SNL.
He had five good seasons with the Bears and 1 Super Bowl win.
Honestly, I had to look up his stats because he is just not that memorable to me other than remembering him being a nasty jerk.

Of course, everyone is entitled to their opinion.
Let him go on and predict the Puckers.

Dikta is an idiot, but take off your purple shades for a second and see that the Packers are a damn good team.

No wonder that the Bears and Vikes are big time rivals over that!
As well as the Packers!

I agree. The Packers have been excellent the whole preseason, even if it is hard to accept.

Williams was selected as the fifth pick of the 1999 NFL Draft by the New Orleans Saints. Head coach Mike Ditka traded all of the Saints' 1999 draft picks to get Williams, as well as a 1st and 3rd pick the following year.

Erm, he's the expert I guess.

One thing is clear, is that every team in the NFCN has improved, and it will go down to the wire for the division crown. Even the lowly Lions give us fits, so this will not be a walk in the park.

As far as Ditka and Butkus goes, what do you expect from ex Bears. Both the Pack and da Bore's will be tough, and the Black and Blue Division is on the rise.

Preseason champs for sure.

Up there with the greats like the 08 Lions...

And until I see it, I refuse to believe moving one of the best LEs in football to LBer is a smart move.
