Bears vs. Packers
Those two teams haven't met in the playoffs since 1941. From NFL Touchdown:
Yes, nearly 70 years.
As for the matchup itself, Bears vs. Packers is one for the ages. Even if the game ends 3-0, it will be called a "classic black and blue division defensive struggle."
Final note for fans for both teams, but especially for the Bears fans, beware of Oliver's Woofing Theorem. I devised a spoiler for Survivor based on it, and it worked. The only rational explanation was that the editors were manipulating the audience, but it still worked.
So, no woofing if you want your team to win. On the other hand, provoking fans of the other team to woof might just be a good idea. :-)
- WWII can’t stop the rivalry: Exactly seven days after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the Packers and Bears met in the first and only playoff meeting between these two teams. In a time when the country was devastated by the advent of World War II, an overflow crowd of more than 43,000 fans came to Wrigley Field to watch the Bears defeat the Packers 33-14. The following week, when the Bears hosted the NY Giants in the NFL Championship game, only 13,000 fans showed up to see them win their fourth title.
Yes, nearly 70 years.
