Wild Card Weekend is over, and we know the teams that will play in the Divisional Round next week. The best matchup of this round saw the Green Bay Packers hosting the New York Giants at Lambeau Field. Everybody expected a tight matchup, but in the end, Aaron Rodgers led his crew to a 38:13 win at home.
Rodgers was just on fire in the second half after that hail marry that he threw at the end of the first half. Randall Cobb and Davante Addams were amazing as they needed to step up when Jordy Nelson left the game. They were on the receiving end of Rodgers’ darts that he threw and both of them finished with over 100 yards in the match.
Now, the Dallas Cowboys will be their next opponent. Cowboys have already beaten the Packers this season. Week 6 saw the Packers hosting Dallas at Lambeau with the Cowboys ending up on top, 30:16 was the final score.
Dallas was the best team in the regular season in the NFC, but this Packers team is not the same squad that they faced more than two months ago. This is the crew from Green Bay that has won seven games in a row while their quarterback hasn’t thrown a single pick in eight weeks while he did throw 22 TDs in that time span.
Green Bay was the best in matchup during the Wild Card Weekend. A lot of people are going to pick this Cowboys and Packers matchup as the most interesting one in the Divisional Round. It’s hard to disagree with that one.
Even though the Cowboys should be a slight favorite to win that duel, we are not sure about who is going to end up as the victor. It’s the NFL Playoffs at its best. One thing is certain – it’s going to be a great game to watch.
