The defense will have to find a way to shut down Rodgers. Maybe Justin can be in on key pass-rush plays to open a hole for Aldon to get to him. Sacks are not absolutely necessary, but HITS are. Smack him around. A lot.

We also tend to forget that Ahmed Brooks lines up on the OTHER end of the D-line. Before Aldon, Brooks was the pass rushing guy. And he still is. Set up some T-E twists for him, too.

As said before by lots of you, running Frank Gore and having long ball-control drives keeps the defense fresher and keeps Aaron Rodgers off the field. If I tune in Saturday night to see Kaep dropping deep to pass three plays in a row, I might have a meltdown.

Play the smart way. Roll over them. Smack 'em around. Put your foot on the collective Packers neck and don't remove it until the final gun sounds.
