GLENDALE, Ariz. — Three weeks ago, the Arizona Cardinals beat the Green Bay Packers by 30 points. No one should expect that kind of blowout when the teams meet again Saturday night, this time in the NFC divisional playoffs.
"I think these guys definitely come back here with a bad taste in their mouth," Arizona cornerback Patrick Peterson said, "so I think it will definitely be a much better game."
Oddsmakers are picking the Cardinals, the NFC's No. 2 seed, by seven points, although Packers coach Mike McCarthy wouldn't call his team the underdog.
"We're no underdog going to Arizona," McCarthy said after his team's 35-18 wild-card victory over Washington.
