Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has a small calf tear. The injury was suffered Week 17 in a rivalry battle with the Detroit Lions. Rodgers left the game early but later returned to lead the pack to a division crown. Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh certainly didn’t help when he stepped on Rodgers’ leg, later being fined for the action. Luckily for the star quarterback a 12-4 record allowed Green Bay to claim a much needed bye week. Doctors say Rodgers will not be 100% but will absolutely play Divisional round vs. Dallas. The Packers will host the Cowboys at Lambeau Field Sunday at 1 pm. The last time the Packers hosted a playoff game facing Dallas was the infamous ice bowl game. Green Bay won the game 21-17 winning the 1967 NFL Championship.
