For a second straight year, the Green Bay Packers posted a 13-3 record during the regular season.

This time, that mark was good enough for the top record in the NFC, which gave the Packers the No. 1 seed and the lone conference bye week. The team will get a week to rest up before gearing up for a divisional round playoff game. The only postseason game the Packers won’t play at Lambeau Field will be if the team reaches the Super Bowl.
