Predictions for every playoff game on the NFC side. Will the Packers make the Super Bowl?

For the second season in a row, the Green Bay Packers are the NFC’s top seed, which means they have a week off to rest and prepare for what’s ahead. In the meantime, the other six playoff teams in the conference will compete for a spot in the divisional round. The Packers are two wins away from the Super Bowl, and both of those games would be played at Lambeau Field.

Matt LaFleur’s team fell short of its goal a year ago, eliminating the Los Angeles Rams in the divisional round but then losing to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC Championship Game.

Many thought that was the Packers’ last chance to win a second Super Bowl with Aaron Rodgers. As it turns out, this season might be an even better opportunity for them. One they must make the most of. With so many key players hitting free agency and uncertainty over Rodgers’ future, this is the moment to make it count.

Let’s work through each round of the playoffs and predict the winners from the NFC. Below is each team’s seeding in the conference.

  1. Green Bay Packers
  2. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
  3. Dallas Cowboys
  4. Los Angeles Rams
  5. Arizona Cardinals
  6. San Francisco 49ers
  7. Philadelphia Eagles
