Even though it wasn't anything he did directly, this loss only reinforces the perception that he struggles in the post season.
It's not that he struggles in the post season; it's that he struggles in certain situations in the post season. The 49ers turned the game into every kind of situation that presents Rodgers problems: they kept the score close; they kept the Packers' offense on its own side of the field (for almost the entire game); they took away Davante Adams, and they did not give the Packers short 3rd down situations.
I think it was one of the great defensive performances in the history of the NFL.
