Without the possibility of an undefeated season and with a No. 1 seed already locked up for the NFC playoffs, it was thought that quarterback Aaron Rodgers, though he might play a little today, probably wouldn’t go the whole way.
Now, we know for sure he won’t play at all.
That’s because Rodgers is among the Packers inactives for today’s game vs. the Lions. Also inactive are linebacker Clay Matthews, receiver Greg Jennings,
Tim Tebow gets the Taiwanese animation treatment, running back James Starks, tackle Bryan Bulaga and cornerback Charles Woodson.
That means quarterback Matt Flynn will get the second start of his career, and it’ll be interesting to see if he can repeat last year’s performance vs. the Patriots in which Flynn played well and nearly did enough to beat New England.
“I’m not really trying to go out there and prove anything to anybody or the rest of the NFL,

“Go in there, execute the offense, move the chains and put points up. That’s my job, and that’s all it should be.”
As the Packers team website points out, Rodgers has officially broken Peyton Manning's record for the highest-ever season passer rating. Rodgers will finish the season with a rating of 122.5, better than Manning's 121.4 rating in 2004.
