WATCH: Packers’ Davante Adams says Week 12 loss to 49ers has ‘zero relevance’

Sunday’s NFC Championship pins the Packers (14-3) against the 49ers (14-3) in a rematch of a game that Green Bay lost 37-8 back in November.

This weekend, though, wide receiver Davante Adams says the green and gold have a much better plan for attacking San Francisco.

“Obviously, if we left the game with eight points (…) obviously the plan was not good enough (…) the execution obviously wasn’t good enough, too,” Adams said according to ESPN. “The plan, so far what I’ve seen, I really like, and I think it’s a better way to attack this defense.”

Adams caught the lone Packers touchdown in that game but was limited to 43 yards on seven receptions. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers was limited to a season-low 104 passing yards in that November game and he said earlier this week, “They’re obviously expected to hold court and win,” adding that the pressure on the Niners should keep Green Bay, “nice and loose.”

San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan expects this weekend to be as different as Adams is predicting.

“We know it’ll be different,” he said, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. “I think that game really holds zero relevance to what’s going to happen this Sunday.”
