The Green Bay Packers will host the Tampa Bay Buccanneers in the first NFC Championship game to be held at Lambeau Field in over a decade.
The Buccanneers secured their fate after pulling away from the New Orleans Saints in the fourth quarter Sunday night in a 30-20 victory. Tom Brady qualified for his 14th conference title game with the win. The Bucs have already toppled the Packers this year when they rattled off 38 unanswered points in a 38-10 romp back in October.
The Packers will have an extra day of rest and preparation after beating the Los Angeles Rams on Saturday 32-18. They will also have a Lambeau Field with approximately 500 extra fans in paid attendance for the NFC Title game according to a team announcement on Sunday. Fans that opted in for tickets will be able to purchase them later this week. Cold and snow is also being predicted for the 2:05 p.m. Sunday kickoff.
