Judging by Saturday's performance, you'd probably guess the Packers play in wet, slippery, snowy conditions every day.

They don't, but for many players, that made the playoff atmosphere that much more enjoyable.

Large flakes of snow fell across Lambeau Field the entire game, and it was at its worst in the third quarter when seeing across the field was nearly impossible. But that only added to the tale of a 42-20 victory that will go down as one of the more memorable postseason games in Lambeau Field's long history.

"It was fun," Charles Woodson said. "Who cares if you can see or not, it was fun. I like playing in those types of conditions, whether it's raining, snowing, or whatever it is.

"In those types of conditions, it's all about what team is going to execute. We gave the ball up early and spotted them those 14 points, but once we buckled down and did our thing, we were all right."

For Aaron Kampman, who played his collegiate football at Iowa, dealing with snow wasn't necessarily a new phenomenon for him, but he said he had never dealt with it to that extent.

Not that he minded.

"That was definitely the most snow I played in," Kampman said. "It was a lot of fun."

Perhaps the players would have felt differently if the Packers didn't have such a big lead in the third quarter or such a strong rushing attack behind Ryan Grant and an offensive line that simply took over the game.

"Fortunately, we were in good enough position that we could run the football," wide receiver Greg Jennings said. "That snow definitely got a little thick and hard to see, but we were able to move the chains and keep getting first downs."

"It was really something," Kampman reiterated. "I think it helped us. I really do. The way our offensive line was blocking and was really controlling the line of scrimmage and the way our defense was getting after them and rushing the passer, especially in those conditions, I think it helped out."

Ryan Pickett said many players were switching to different cleats at halftime and Jennings said keeping your footing was probably a more difficult challenge than seeing the football.

Obviously, Jennings had little trouble in either regard as he hauled in six catches for 71 yards and two touchdowns.

{sportsad300}"You don't want to lose your footing," Jennings admitted. "You don't want to be that guy that slips and gives the defender the advantage. There was one where I dropped because I tried to run before I caught it. And in situations like this, you don't need to try to run after the catch because you never know what the defenders are going to do. You might slip and fall."

Fellow wide receiver James Jones didn't think the offense necessarily gained an advantage, however. At least not in the passing game.

"It was very tough to get footing," Jones said. "But it was hard for them to get footing too, so it all evens out. We were able to make more plays than them today and execute better them today and that's what it came down to. I'm just glad we came out with a team victory."

According to Jennings, Saturday's elements were perfect for Packers football.

"It was exciting, it was fun," he said. "That's what football is all about. The frozen tundra...

"It reminded me of the Ice Bowl. We were all just covered in snow. It was a great atmosphere."
