See the full story · 1 sourcesAfter ending their 2025 season with five straight losses, including one in the Wild Card round of the NFC playoffs, the Green Bay Packers are looking for more in 2026. The Packers have been the NFC’s #7 playoff seed in all three of Jordan Love’s seasons as the team’s starting quarterback, but they have just one postseason win to show for it, that coming back in 2023.
A 9-7-1 record last season was just enough to keep Green Bay in second place in the NFC North division, finishing just a half-game ahead of the Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions. Both of those teams ended the season 9-8, while the Chicago Bears went 11-6 to earn the division title and the NFC’s #2 overall playoff seed.
Will the Packers get back on top of the division for the first time since the 2021 season? Oddsmakers aren’t overly optimistic, instead giving the Lions the best odds to win the North in 2026. Detroit has +150 odds to go worst-to-first as of the start of training camp, according to FanDuel Sportsbook , with the Packers coming in second at +260. Chicago is next up with just +320 odds as the books expect significant regression, while Minnesota brings up the rear at +470.
The Packers finished with exactly 9 wins in two of the last three years. They went 9-8 in Love’s first season back in 2023, then finished 11-6 but were still the 7th seed in 2024 before last year’s 9-7-1 finish. This season, FanDuel expects more of the same, with the team’s over/under win total set at 9.5.
Here’s the Packers’ full schedule of games for the 2026 season.
