The field is heated
Rams HC Sean McVay is 34 years old and Packers HC Matt LaFleur is 41. This will be the youngest head coaching postseason matchup since Don Shula/John Madden in 1970, which was Shula’s first playoff game as the Dolphins HC - a game he lost to Madden. pic.twitter.com/CqG1XbyJpF

I said when I saw it happen that non-contact knee injuries are seldom just "bursitis" and McKay's explanation of him getting it "bumped" does not hold up. I don't think he plays.
It's game day, folks. Get your lazy asses outta bed!
I got that feeling @packers fam... just got that feeling that GB wins by 14+ today. Just a feeling.. but it’s a strong one.

Hope he's right- I could use a game with minimal anxiety involved.
On playoff days I always watch the Ice Bowl!
what a great way to start a Saturday, thanks for that Packiderm.

Yep, the roots are probably nice and toasty. And they spent the night covered in a warm blanket. But then someone jerks it off and 300lb guys stomp and slide on it as the temperature drops.
It's barely 8 a.m and I can sleep no more. Fire up the nespresso and let's play some football!
My ass was up 4am ready to roll. Busted out the Hokas and ran for an hour outside. Very nice by the way for mid January- about 30 and only a slight breeze out of the north.
Not sure the weather is going to matter much and if it does then you are a pussy. Only concern would be temps around freezing and as it gets into night time the moisture in the air will settle and make the field a little soapy.
Awesome. LFG
@TomPelissero: No positive COVID tests among playoff teams this morning, source said. All clear for divisional round.

Ran a 8 mile run (Janesville) 4 miles moderate and 4 mile at a very hard effort 35 degrees
Swam a mile this morning like I do almost every morning. Water was probably 83 degrees. Outdoors. Sunny. Pretty cold though. 43 degrees in the air.
Ran .002 of a click to the fridge just now.
All this talk of exercise should remind us that no one in Green Bay is drinking at this hour. They are all on their Pelotons.
I’m going to say you’re wrong . . . by a lot.
Currently 36 degrees in GB but feels like 28. Wish it was colder.
It’s been a long time since I was this nervous about a game. Mostly nervous about that LA defense.
Go Pack, GO!
She needs to work on her form and technique. As for the curls, those are fine.
WR Cooper Kupp is inactive for the Rams. Was a game-time decision with a knee injury.

Keep an eye on the halftime score today because ... Sean McVay is 37-0 as a HC when leading at halftime including the playoffs.
Aaron Rodgers is 1-7 in his playoff career when trailing at halftime (only win 2014 Divisional vs Cowboys).
Interesting stat.
