Packers Playoff Times

Marie from the comments asks "Do you have any insight or knowledgeable guesses as to which day and time the Packers would play their first playoff game at Lambeau?"

Yes and no. The first Packers playoff game will be the weekend of January 12th, 2008. It will be either January 12th, or January 13th. That much is for sure. (Tickets right now are $299 - $1000 and going up. If you want to go, get em now. I will not be going ^^)

I believe the #2 seed will play on Saturday the 12th, and the #1 seed will play on Sunday.

As to what time the 2007 NFC Divisional playoff is, or what time the 2007 AFC Divisional playoff is, I don't know. Dave mentions in the comments that the NFL will not announce the times until the teams are decided. That is probably accurate, especially in light of this years flex scheduling scheme the NFL is using.

The interesting thing is FOX has the NFC Divisional game, and CBS has the AFC Divisional game that weekend. I would think who goes first would be in the TV contract, but just guessing.

If I find out more, or exact times, I will update this post.

Right now the Packers are standing tall at 12 and 2. It occurred to me that they can avenge their first loss this weekend when they go to Chicago and play the Bears. Then, if all goes well, on January 20th they will be able to get even for their 2nd loss when they play the Cowboys.

Thanks for the comment Dave.

I never thought about it that way, but your right. If the Packers run the table they will have a perfect season of sorts.

They will have beat every team that beat them.

And they will have repeated as Super Bowl Champs against the same team they beat last time.

The only way it could be better is if we got to play Denver in the Super Bowl. ^^

But now I am getting carried away.
