A roundup of what's happening on the Green Bay Packers beat.

GREEN BAY, Wis. – Thirty-two NFL reporters can't be wrong, can they?

If they're not, the Packers will be a playoff team.

In our NFL Nation season predictions, all 32 team reporters picked the Packers to go to the postseason. All but five of them – you can find out who by reading the AFC writers predictions and the NFC writers predictions – picked the Packers to win the NFC North. The other five pegged them for a wild-card berth.

But a Super Bowl champ? Well, not many were ready to go that far.

Win the NFC North: 27

Make the playoffs as a wild-card team: 5

Win the Super Bowl: 2
