The Giants and Packers have a history of drawing big playoff numbers. Their 2012 meeting still ranks as the highest rated Divisional Round matchup since 1997 (25.3). Four years earlier, their NFC Championship thriller scored the highest rating for any non-Super Bowl game since 1997 (29.0), though that mark has since been surpa sed. Do not expect any multi-year highs this time around, only because recent matchups like Lions-Cowboys in 2015 (23.6) and 49ers-Packers in 2014 (25.8) set a very high bar. Still, Sundays game should comfortably surpa s last years 21.8 for Green Bay against Washington. Prediction: 23.0.NFL wild card game: Dolphins-Steelers (1 p.m. Sunday, CBS). Men's Christian McCaffrey Game Jersey It is hard to imagine Dolphins-Steelers coming close to last years whopping 21.0 rating for Seahawks-Vikings on NBC, which aired in the same early Sunday window. Even so, CBS may still be able to get out of the weekend crowing about an increase in ratings. The networks Steelers-Bengals Wild Card Game last year, which aired on a Saturday night, had a 17.5. Prediction: 17.9.NFL wild card game: Lions-Seahawks (8 p.m. Saturday, NBC). After a one-year hiatus, the Saturday night Wild Card game Game Cam Newton Men's Jersey returns to NBC this year. Look for Lions-Seahawks to score a solid increase over last years Steelers-Bengals game on CBS, aided in part by inclement weather around the country and the NFC's stronger drawing power. Prediction: 18.1.NFL wild card game: Raiders-Texans (4:30 p.m. Saturday, ESPN and ABC). The Raiders were one of the NFLs best stories during the regular season, but they enter their first playoff game in 14 years weakened by injury. With the Texans still mi sing their only real draw, J.J. Watt, there is little appeal to this matchup. Luckily for ESPN-ABC, last years Chiefs-Texans game was not exactly a scintillating matchup either, earning a 14.8 acro s the two networks. The bad weather and the Raiders drawing power should result in a modest increase. Prediction: 15.0.College basketball: Wisconsin-Purdue (4:30 p.m. Sunday, CBS). The last time a college basketball game on CBS aired after the NFL playoffs UNLV-Kansas two years ago the game had a 1.6 rating. Expect similar numbers for Sundays matchup of Top 25 Big Ten teams.
