How much blame does Aaron Rodgers deserve for the Packers' playoff loss to the 49ers? FrontOffice33 | GoPackGo
The Green Bay Packers suffered yet another heartbreaking postseason defeat on Saturday evening. The one-seed Packers were largely viewed as favorites to host next weekend's NFC Championship Game at Lambeau Field but a shocking upset by the San Francisco 49ers brought a swift and merciless end to those hopes and dreams. It represents yet another quick and disappointing playoff exit for an Aaron Rodgers-led Packers team that continues to fail to meet postseason expectations year in year out.
While the blame may be shared across various entities, there's no denying that Rodgers' rather pedestrian performance is extremely culpable for yet another haunting playoff loss. The likely MVP winner, Rodgers' path to a Super Bowl set itself up beautifully. No franchise reigned victorious in more regular-season games than the 13-win Packers . A first-round bye and home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs set the Packers up favorably.
Rodgers was sacked five times by an energetic 49ers defense that executed their game plan to perfection . The sacks brought Green Bay's net passing totals to just 196 yards. All in all, the Packers accumulated a measly 263 yards of total offense and 10 pathetic points.
