With their 20-3 win last Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Green Bay Packers officially clinched a playoff spot for the sixth straight season.  While that’s something to be proud of, the team is looking for more.

They play in the biggest game of the season this Sunday against the Detroit Lions for the NFC North title, and the all-important first-round bye.  The loser gets one of the two wild card spots and has to play on the road on wild card weekend.

While the teams are pretty much locked up (minus the NFC South winner), the seeding is still very much up in the air in the NFC. The NFC will have the Seahawks, Cowboys, Lions, Packers, Cardinals, and then the winner of the Panthers vs Falcons.

Since the NFC South has been so bad this year, the winner of that game will automatically become the fourth seed.  Every other seed has yet to be determined.

There are quite a few potential match-ups facing the Packers depending on how the week 17 games go.

So instead of waiting for the games to be completed Sunday, let’s see how Green Bay stacks up against every NFC playoff team.
