Using Zero rankings, Giants are 6th and Packers are 12th overall through entire 2016 regular season.

Same rankings over last four games.
Giants are 7th overall, 20th in offense and 3rd in defense.
Packers are 2nd overall, 2nd in offense and 15th in defense.

Aaron Rodgers has played against the Giants in the playoffs before. At Lambeau Field. On Sunday. At 3:40pm CST. He threw only 2 TD's and an INT.

The referee for that game was Bill Leavy.

Packers had 4 giveaways and just 1 takeaway in that game. Rodgers, Ryan Grant and John Kuhn each had fumbles.

Packers come into this game riding a six game win streak and the Giants lost to the Eagles before beating the Redskins in their season finale.

Packers put up 23 on Giants earlier this season at Lambeau Field and got 20 the last two playoff games vs Giants at Lambeau Field.

Some will say the Giants game earlier wasn't even that close because of the late Beckham TD. Shush.

Unfortunately the table will get a broken leg Sunday ...

Giants 30
Packers 20

Last time the Packers played the Giants in the playoffs, the Packers had been rested 2-3 weeks. They were cold. I also believe the tragedy involving the death of Joe Philbin's put a dark cloud over the team that week. I'm not saying the Packers are going to win (though I think they will), but I think I've seen too much stock being put in the past two games the Giants played at Lambeau in the playoffs. That last game was 5 years ago. Eli is still capable of being a great QB, but he doesn't feel like the same player to me. The key is to force him to make mistakes and get him rattled.

I think that if the Packers can put a whole game together, all 4 quarters, we will be OK.
Have to keep the foot on the gas the WHOLE game. No let ups. No "prevent (your team from winning) defense". Keep Manning running for his life.
It would be nice to actually BEAT these guys in the playoffs for a change.

Living in Giants and Eagles country as I do, I am never going to live this down if the Packers fall prey to the Giants in the postseason again. 🤬

The 2007 season matchup was the NFC Championship Round.
The 2011 season matchup was the NFC Divisional Round.
THe 2016 season matchup is the NFC Wild Card Round.

Freaking Giants could get the damn hatrick at Lambeau Field!

Martha Careful (3h) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity

Zero2Cool (6h) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

CanPackFan (9h) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.

buckeyepackfan (15-May) : Let the leaks begin. Colts @ Packers week 2, Vikings @ Packers week 4

Zero2Cool (14-May) : WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to Bills

Zero2Cool (14-May) : Jets and Aaron Rodgers open up on Monday Night Football,

Zero2Cool (13-May) : $170 guaranteed. This might impact Jordan Love

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Lions are signing QB Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million extension

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : I really don't know lol. I don't see him getting blown up.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : -3 buwahhhahaaha

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
