The Green Bay Packers are expected to be one of the top Super Bowl contenders during the 2015 season. Aaron Rodgers has led the team to a Super Bowl win in his career, and he is coming off of an MVP season in 2014. All of that being said, what five early predictions can be made about the Packers' upcoming season?

Green Bay has had one of the league's more dangerous offenses over the past few seasons, and they are going to be a top-five offense in the NFL in 2015. Obviously it all starts with Aaron Rodgers, but they have Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb and Davante Adams to support him. Eddie Lacy is going to have another big season on the ground as well, and they will outscore teams more often than not.

4. Defense Will See Big Improvement

One of the only issues that the Packers had last season was the inconsistency of their defense. They have a lot of talent put together and will take a big step forward during the 2015 season. Ted Thompson has built the defense well through the draft, and it will begin paying off this year.

Green Bay has won the NFC North division title for the past four seasons, and they will make it five in a row this year. They will have to compete with the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears in particular, but the Minnesota Vikings are going to be better than they have been in awhile. Despite that fact, the Packers are still the best team in the division and will take home the title.

Aaron Rodgers won the NFL's Most Valuable Player award last season, and he will back it up with another MVP award this season. He is a good bet to win the award every year as long as he is playing at the level that he has been since entering the NFL, and Green Bay has the team put together around him to help him out. There will be other legitimate candidates, but Rodgers is going to be the winner.

Winning the Super Bowl is an extremely big prediction, but the Green Bay Packers have the talent to make it a reality. They are stacked on the offensive side of the football and have a young defense that will turn the corner. Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers will lead the Packers to a Super Bowl and will look extremely dominant doing so.
