With the regular season winding down and only the Minnesota Vikings having something to play for beyond Week 17, let’s take a look back over the season that was in the NFC North, and select the All-NFC North team.
OFFENSE
Quarterback: Matthew Stafford, Lions – This one was close between Stafford and Minnesota’s Case Keenum, but Stafford ultimately did more with less help in the end. Stafford’s completed 65.5 percent of his passes this season for 4,123 yards with 26 touchdowns and 10 interceptions.
Running back: Jordan Howard, Chicago – Howard became the first Bears running back to record at least 1,000-yards rushing in his first two seasons.
