    All eyes were on Jordan Love as he replaced Aaron Rodgers for his first full season, and despite a 2-5 start he's led Green Bay to the play-offs at his first attempt, something neither Rodgers nor Brett Favre could manage.

    And he's been doing it with a talented but very young group of rookie and second-year receivers, which make the fact he's been the best QB not named Dak Prescott in terms of rating in his 6-2 run to end the season even better.

    In the young mix is veteran running back Aaron Jones, who returned from injury just in time and if the defence can just hold up, then Love doesn't look like the type of QB who will let you down.

    The Dallas Cowboys are riding high on a 16-game winning streak at home.

    They clinched the second seed in the NFC which means there's a possibility of at least two more play-off games at AT&T Stadium this season.

    They're powered by quarterback Dak Prescott who threw an NFL leading 36 touchdown passes in the regular season.

    And they ended up averaging 29.9 points per game, the most in the league as they finished with a 12-5 record.

    The Cowboys are dreaming of a first Super Bowl win in 28 years. Is this the year they finally break drought?

    These are two of the premier teams in the NFL. Dallas is known as 'America's Team' and their every move is scrutinised throughout American sport. Their cheerleaders even have their own TV show.

    While Green Bay, the home of the fan-owned Packers, is known as 'Titletown' such was their early dominance.

    That success was driven by legendary coach Vince Lombardi - whose name now adorns the Super Bowl trophy. You just don't get bigger or better than these two giants of the gridiron.

    They've had some thrilling meetings down the years, and in the play-offs they're tied at 4-4 so tonight's winner will edge ahead in the head-to-head standings.

    We have got two absolute belters for you tonight though, as the Dallas Cowboys host the Green Bay Packers in a battle of two gridiron icons.

    Then we've got Matthew Stafford's return to Detroit with the Los Angeles Rams - and they're the opposition for the Lions they end a three-decade wait for a home play-off game.

    So get settled because anything could happen tonight...
