NFC North
If anything, Super Bowl champs Green Bay look stronger this year, especially if they can stay healthy so it'll be tough for Chicago to stop them. Detroit will be a bigger player this year while Donovan McNabb could turn Minnesota around.

NFC West
Seattle caused a huge upset last year, but hopefully this year's divisional champ will at least have a winning record! Kevin Kolb could do it for Arizona, but so could Sam Bradford for St Louis, it could be wild again in the west this year.
