"The last time the New York Giants came to Lambeau Field was, coincidentally, the last time the Packers had a home playoff game.

It would also be the last game Brett Favre would play for the Packers.

The primary question for the 2007 NFC Championship Game was pretty much the same question that dominates your garden-variety tackle-ball event:

Which quarterback would you rather have? In that instance, it was Favre or Eli Manning.

Favre was still Favre, having led the Packers to 13 regular-season victories. But right before the playoffs in a game at Chicago, Favre, at age 37, showed for the first time in a Hall of Fame career he could no longer play to his standards in the bitter cold."
