The Green Bay Packers won’t be hoping for history to repeat itself too much from Week 6 in this week’s NFC Championship Game versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

One thing they do hope carries over into this game is Jaire Alexander‘s performance.

As he has done all season, the second-team All-Pro cornerback matched up with the opposing team’s top wide receiver. In this case, it was Tom Brady’s main target Mike Evans. And as we’ve seen all year from Alexander, he dominated the matchup.
