The defending Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers enter the post-season as the odds-on favourites to repeat. The Packers finished 15-1 – the best record in the league, which clinched them home-field advantage. Last season, the Packers defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers, ending a 14 year title drought, as they became only the second six-seeded team to win the Super Bowl. The Packers are joined in the NFC Playoffs by the San Francisco 49ers, who cemented their return to the NFL’s post-season for the first time in eight years after clinching the NFC West title. The high-powered New Orleans Saints have also clinched a spot in the post-season with the second best record in the league and are joined in the NFC playoff spots by New York Giants, Atlanta Falcons and Detroit Lions.
