Aaron Rodgers is back on the field for the Green Bay Packers and there is a new confidence with the Green Bay team. Rodgers led the Packers to the win over the Chicago Bears in order to sneak the Packers into the playoffs and now they will host the San Francisco 49ers.
The Packers defense has struggled this season and they will have to deal with the running ability of Colin Kaepernick. He has been a nightmare for the Packers defense in the past. He has run past the Packers defense and found open receivers on them and he will hope to be able to get the job done again in the playoffs.
Prediction:

The Packers will have the home field advantage and the game will also be played in freezing temperatures. The game will depend on which quarterback will step up and make some plays. Rodgers is still shaking off a bit of rust in the game and Kaepernick has owned the Packers. Have to select the 49ers to pull this one off.
Packers 24 – 49ers 27
