We are almost there! The time has almost come for the Green Bay Packers to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. With the NFC Championship game being held at Lambeau Field for the first time in Aaron Rodgers’ storied career, you know he and the rest of the Pack are ready to go.

But first, they must take care of business against an extremely talented and dangerous Bucs’ team. Led by Tom Brady, Tampa Bay saw their high-profile offseason moves pay off and quickly ascended from a middling team to one of the final four remaining in the NFL. With the biggest stage ahead of us, let’s make five bold predictions for the Packers matchup with the Bucs in the NFC Championship game.

Green Bay has been able to mostly weather the storm when this has happened this season, but will they be able to do so again?
