NFC: No. 5 Giants vs. No. 4 Packers

Projected Records: Packers (10-6), Giants (11-5)

Matchup: Heavy likes Green Bay's chances of winning out to secure the NFC North title. While the Giants would have the better record, the Packers would be the higher seed since they won their division and would get to host the game in Green Bay. This would be the matchup of opening weekend if it came to fruition. Aaron Rodgers and the Packers are surging after being left for dead just a month ago. Meanwhile, the Giants offense is sputtering after a fast start. The Giants defense would need to slow down the Packers offense for New York to stay in the game. Green Bay came away with the 23-16 home victory when the two teams squared off in October. (Getty)
