McDonald: 49ers’ defensive masterpiece may have just ended Rodgers’ run in Green Bay

It was Aaron Rodgers in all his glory, leading the Green Bay Packers on a 10-play, 69-yard drive for a touchdown the first time he touched the ball.

He kept finding Davante Adams for first downs, and when A.J. Dillon barrelled into the end zone on a 6-yard run, the 49ers defense wasn’t even able to get Green Bay to third down.

Middle linebacker Fred Warner was angry. Warner is the 49ers defensive leader and has turned into the kind of spiritual voice that Ronnie Lott used to be when the 49ers were winning Super Bowls under Bill Walsh and George Seifert.
