Can the 49ers beat the Green Bay Packers in the snowy Midwest? ESPN's LauraRutledge says a Niners win hinges on their offense keeping up with Aaron Rodgers and of course, coaching.
Rodgers is the reigning NFL MVP and Rutledge believes limiting the future hall of famer will be key for the 49ers on Saturday night.
"The reality is when you have a guy like Aaron Rodgers at quarterback, who is very rarely uncomfortable and will most likely once again win the MVP in back to back years, it's so hard to focus on trying to eliminate what he's going to do," said Rutledge. "If that's the case you kind of have to say how are we going to score more points so we are in situation at the end of the game where we are in it," said Rutledge.
She also highlighted the importance of getting tight end George Kittle involved in the game plan and creating mismatches against the Packers defense. "Coaching is going to factor in big time. Really good coaches, especially at this point in the postseason, when we look back at the game, that ends up being the determining factor," said Rutledge.Be sure to catch NFL Live weekdays on ESPN, 1:00 PM Pacific.
