This upcoming weekend is one of the best of the year if you’re a neutral NFL fan. However for Green Bay Packers fans, it has become one that seems so close, yet so far away.
Between 2007 and 2020, the Packers appeared in six NFC championship games. Since 2007, the only other NFC teams with as many as four trips to the NFC championship are the 49ers (7) and Eagles (4). This year’s participants, the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams are both making their third appearance in an NFC Championship game since the 2013 season.
Despite having all of those appearances, it is definitely disappointing the Packers have only one Super Bowl appearance.
