The Green Bay Packers defeated the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday to advance to the NFC championship game thanks to another brilliant game from Aaron Rodgers. The MVP favorite had a great game despite a calf injury that limited him in practice all week.

Rodgers threw for 317 yards and three touchdowns as he led Green Bay to victory in the divisional round of the playoffs. He did not look like himself in the first half, and it appeared that his calf injury was really bothering him, but he came out throwing strikes for the second half.

After the game, Rodgers said that his calf was "a little bit worse," but he does not expect to miss any time, according to ESPN. "I think I've got 120 minutes left in me," Rodgers said. "So I'm going to do everything I can to make sure I can play all those minutes."

If Rodgers is going to play another 120 minutes this season, the Packers will have to make the Super Bowl. In order to do that, they will have to defeat the Seattle Seahawks in arguably the NFL's most difficult environment for visiting teams.

Rodgers barely practiced at all leading up to the Dallas game, and he is unlikely to practice much this week either. "I've got to give a lot of credit to our training staff," Rodgers said. "They spent a lot of hours with me this week. They did a great job of getting me ready. My acupuncturist as well. She really helps.

"I'd like to say thanks to all of the fans and medical people out there who sent in ideas over the hotline. There was some really interesting ones. Kind of wish at some point we could release some of the emails and messages we got, but I know they're all in good faith there, so I appreciate the ideas. But, ultimately, it came down to our training staff, and they helped me get through this one."
