I will argue that this is the most important game in Packer's history. A loss will be devastating. Maybe not to the players or the organization, but to the fans. I know I feel this way. I will take a loss today harder than if we won and lost in the Super Bowl. Winning the Super Bowl would be icing on the cake, but this game, today is the one I want.

What game could compare to the importance of this NFC Championship game? Maybe the first time we played Favre in a Vikings uniform? '96 Super Bowl?

Thoughts?

I think one of the biggest games in franchise history was the 1967 NFL Championship game, aka the Icebowl. If Dallas wins that game, Tom Landry's name might have ended up on the SB trophy instead of Lombardi.

The most important historical moments tend to be forgotten. We don't notice them until they're long past and reshaped our lives made us something different than we used to me.

The most important Packer game to me was the first one I watched. But I can't remember which one it was. But that's the one who hooked me on pursuing the truth of NFL life.

The truth that the Vikings are pinheads.
The truth that the Bears still suck.

The truth of Lombardi and Starr and Nitschke and Davis and Jordan and Robinson and Taylor.

The truth of Titletown and Lambeau.

The truth that if the Packers aren't playing, it isn't football or it isn't Sunday.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

I think "The Biggest Game" is different for each individual fan. For me, the biggest game was when Antonio Freeman made the catch off of his shoulder. That game truly solidified me as a Cheesehead.
I think to Cheesehead Nation, the Biggest Game other than today, possibly even bigger than today, was when we first faced Favre in purple. This game today will have much better results than that game did.

For me it was the Chester Marcol overtime blocked kick TD win against the Bares. For Arodge and MM, could be today.

It will absolute sting for quite a while if the Packers lose today, but it won't even compare to the sting for Bears fans if the Bears lose today. Chicago could possibly lose the Halas Trophy on their home field to their most hated rival who they could have kept OUT of the playoffs if they would have won in week 17. That's setting up for a far more devastating loss for Bears fans than I would feel as a Packers fan if GB loses today. The Packers can't lose the Lombardi Trophy in Lambeau to Chicago, so there really isn't anything to compare it to.

There is a sense in which, with all the injuries, everything from here on out is icing on the cake for the Pack. The Bares were crowned in midseason, practically.

Plus, isn't this the 1st year the NFC and AFC trophy designs have been changed?
It would be sweet to "own" the 1st one. Just like we did the 1st Super Bowl trophy.
The goal is another Super Bowl title, but we have to take out the Bears first.

I think it's a little too dramatic to say this is the biggest game. It's easy to get lost in the moment as Wade touched on.

I'd argue the 90s super bowls were bigger (still probably not biggest) because coupled with the Reggie signing it showed free agents that green bay wasn't quite the hell hole it was made out to be, and that teams could in fact be successful here.
