The Packers and the Seahawks meet in the playoffs for the first time since the 2014 NFC Championship Game, which Seattle won in overtime after erasing a 16-point deficit.

Green Bay holds a 2-1 advantage in the all-time series in the playoffs, courtesy of defeating the Seahawks in 2003 and at a snowy Lambeau Field four years later.

Time will tell whether Sunday's installment of the rivalry will provide another classic, but on paper at least all the ingredients are in place for a fascinating matchup., Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson are the only remaining starting quarterbacks who have won Super Bowls. They rank fifth and sixth, respectively, in postseason passer efficiency, among quarterbacks with minimum 100 attempts.

From a coaching standpoint, however, the Seahawks and the Packers sit at opposite ends of the spectrum.
