# Bill Huber: After the Packers' 35-14 home loss to Atlanta, Huber revised his season forecast from 8-9 down to 5-12, going game-by-game through the remaining schedule and picking Green Bay to win only four more games (Dallas, Carolina, Minnesota, Miami). **Claimed:** Sep 26, 2026 **Pundit:** Bill Huber — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/bill-huber **Outlet:** Sports Illustrated — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/sports-illustrated **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.si.com/nfl/packers/onsi/three-overreactions-from-packers-loss-to-falcons-with-record-prediction 16 checkable claims — 14 game outcome picks, 1 availability call and 1 season win total — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 10 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room. > That adds up to a 5-12 record. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Chicago Bears to beat Green Bay Packers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Chicago Bears - Verdict: not settled yet - **Detroit Lions to beat Green Bay Packers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Detroit Lions - Verdict: not settled yet - **Detroit Lions to beat Green Bay Packers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Detroit Lions - Verdict: not settled yet - **Houston Texans to beat Green Bay Packers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Houston Texans - Verdict: not settled yet - **Los Angeles Rams to beat Green Bay Packers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Los Angeles Rams - Verdict: not settled yet - **Green Bay Packers to beat Miami Dolphins** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Green Bay Packers - Verdict: not settled yet - **Green Bay Packers to beat Dallas Cowboys** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Green Bay Packers - Verdict: not settled yet - **Green Bay Packers to beat Carolina Panthers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Green Bay Packers - Verdict: not settled yet - **New England Patriots to beat Green Bay Packers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: New England Patriots - Verdict: not settled yet - **New Orleans Saints to beat Green Bay Packers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: New Orleans Saints - Verdict: not settled yet - **Buffalo Bills to beat Green Bay Packers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Buffalo Bills - Verdict: not settled yet - **Green Bay Packers to finish with 5 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Green Bay Packers - Verdict: not settled yet - **Tampa Bay Buccaneers to beat Green Bay Packers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Verdict: not settled yet - **Chicago Bears to beat Green Bay Packers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Chicago Bears - Verdict: not settled yet - **Green Bay Packers to beat Minnesota Vikings** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Green Bay Packers - Verdict: not settled yet - **Week 6: Dallas Cowboys — The Cowboys’ pass rush remains terrible without Micah Parsons, who might make his debut in this game.** - Kind: Availability Calls · About: Micah Parsons, Green Bay Packers - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Chicago Bears — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/bears - Detroit Lions — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/lions - Houston Texans — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/texans - Los Angeles Rams — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/rams - Green Bay Packers — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/packers - New England Patriots — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/patriots - New Orleans Saints — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/saints - Buffalo Bills — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/bills - Tampa Bay Buccaneers — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/buccaneers - Micah Parsons — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/micah-parsons ## What others said about the same people - Chris Simms on New Orleans Saints: Simms went through the entire Week 3 slate with straight-up winners and predicted final scores, taking Jacksonville, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Detroit, Houston, Carolina, Kansas City, Seattle, the Giants, Baltimore, New Orleans, Minnesota, San Francisco, Denver and Philadelphia.
