The Green Bay Packers and Indianapolis Colts avoided local television blackouts by selling out their home playoff games, while the Cincinnati Bengals are getting closer to meeting their deadline.
The Packers, who earned the right to host a home playoff game with a come-from-behind win on the last day of the regular season, will have a sellout for its Lambeau Field game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday after fans and a group of corporate partners, led by Green Bay-based Associated Banc-Corp and including local Fox TV affiliates who will show the game, bought the remaining tickets.
