First off, let's just say that playoffs are great. It's nice that major college football finally figured that out.
There, with that out of the way, we can focus on the NFL playoffs once again, as our Green Bay Packers are still very much alive. On Friday, the team will travel to Seattle (which is a little earlier than usual) to get ready for Sunday's NFC Championship Game. Of course, both teams have evolved considerably since their last meeting, which will be a focus of today's curds. Enjoy!
