The coldest NFC championship game was the Giants' 23-20 overtime victory at the Packers during the 2007 season. Coughlin's crew had knocked off the top-seeded Cowboys in the divisional round, and his bright red cheeks in the minus-1 temperature with minus-23 wind chill at Lambeau Field provided the image many remember from that game.
