When Aaron Rodgers was a kid, he rooted for the 49ers. On Saturday, he'll attempt to end their season. Rodgers grew up three hours northeast of San Francisco and would have played for the Niners had they drafted him instead of Alex Smith at the top of the 2005 NFL Draft. Rodgers will now play as a rival, taking on a pass defense that has allowed five quarterbacks to throw multiple touchdowns against them this season, including Rodgers in Week 1. Rodgers and the Packers hosted the Niners in the season opener and threw for 303 yards with two scores and an interception. Rodgers is one of two quarterbacks (Tom Brady) to exceed 300 passing yards against the Niners.
