In an interesting turn of events, there’s a floating theory that the winner of this game will represent the NFC in the Super Bowl.
That’s right. Not the Cowboys. Not the Seahawks. But either the Green Bay Packers or the New York Giants.
Both come in as two of the hottest teams in the NFL. Following the Week 11 loss down in D.C. against the Redskins, Green Bay looked all but finished. The sky was falling. This team was about to miss the postseason for the first time since 2008, when Aaron Rodgers first became the starter, replacing Brett Favre.
