The Green Bay Packers are locked into the seventh seed in the NFC playoffs this year. Regardless of the outcome of Sunday’s game in Minnesota, that will not change. The Packers have only two possible opponents for their first playoff game, the Chicago Bears or the Philadelphia Eagles. But which team would the Packers be better off facing?
Green Bay has played both teams already this season. They met in Week 10 at Lambeau Field. The Eagles won in a defensive struggle by a score of 10-7.
The Packers defense did a good job of shutting down the Philadelphia offense, holding Jalen Hurts to 183 yards passing and containing Saquon Barkley to just 60 yards on 22 carries.
