NFL divisional round open thread, Sunday edition

We're six games deep into the NFL playoffs, and there hasn't been a contest yet that has been decided by less than 13 points. Hopefully, the NFL saved the best for Sunday, when the Green Bay Packers take on the Dallas Cowboys at 4:40 p.m. EST, while the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in the night game.

Local Cowboys loathers will, of course, be hoping that Aaron Rodgers plays far better than he did when the Cowboys stomped the Packers earlier this season. The Packers will head into Dallas on a seven-game winning streak, including an impressive playoff win a week ago over another division rival of the Eagles, the New York Giants.

The night game will feature old friend Andy Reid, who has the unenviable task of facing a red-hot Steelers team in his first playoff game this season after earning a first round bye. To note, this game was moved from 1:00 p.m. EST to 8:20 p.m. EST due to ice storms, so the weather there could have a big effect on the game.
