the redskins host the packers sunday night. i'll take you to redskins who would have thought when they broke camp in richmond this summer, that on january 10th the washington redskins would be the nfc east champions and be hosting a playoff game? not me--but for only the 3rd time in 18 years--redskins fans will be able to watch their favorite team play at fed field, against the green bay packers in the final game of wildcard weekend. the redskins finished the season with four straight wins, but have not been able to beat a team with a winning record. in the redskins went 7 and 3, the packers 4 and 6. quarterback kirk cousins is the nfl's second-rated passer and has the league's 5th best power rating. he threw 10 passes in the redskins playoff loss to seattle three years ago, so what does he remember from that experience?

so it bodes well for the redskins but they can't take them out. it's still aaron rogers and company as well. as long as the weight has felt for this week, the wait for a playoff win has felt like an eternity. the last "w" ten years ago. no doubt fedex will be rocking tomorrow. players i talked to this week that have been in these types of games said the atmosphere in playoff games is nothing like what they see during the regular season. the game has been a sell-out since hours after the tickets went on sale and the redskins feed off the crowd. they're 6 and 2 at home and in those 6 wins kirk cousins has thrown 14 touchdowns and zero interceptions. that excitement goes beyond the stands and on to the redskins side lines. >> what i noticed the biggest difference nothing to do with on the field. i remember it being an electric environment, very exciting and noticeably different from the regular season for whatever reason and that's fine. >> we're going to see fans we never seen before. pay attention to what's going on on the field. make sure you pay

the redskins had plenty of what they called demons to defeat along the way. to win a playoff game for the first time in a decade they may be the only home-team to be favored this weekend, but the green bay packers have failed to do something this season, beat a team with a winning record. >> we have put a lot of challenges on the guys, and we have put to bed a lot of demons around here, and this is the last one. winning a playoff game is our number one objective, and some of the teams we have beat would be over 500 if we didn't beat them, and you know, we are looking at it like that. >> the green bay packers have three wins over the teams who have played the playoffs. the burgundy and gold are riding the wave of momentum. the pack is, and their all star qb are no stranger to the playoff, so which will prevail on sunday, experience or momentum? >> washington is a good football team. they finished 9-7, big wins down the stretch to clinch the division, and the quarterbacks are playing hot form, and we have to focus on them, the normal week for us playing sunday,
