I do not believe we are going to see him only in the shotgun. We have to run the ball effectively in this game...and we don't do it as effectively out of the shotgun.
His largest risk of re-injury is going to come with acceleration. As long as he doesn't scramble, I think his chances of re-injury are slight due to the 2 full weeks to rehab. He simply HAS to be content to throw the ball away early during this game if nothing is there.
I don't think he will have much issue working from under center on occasion as long as the footing on the field is OK. The guy played for almost a FULL HALF on this damn calf right after injuring it. HE RAN A FUCKING QB SNEAK WITH IT. Now he's had TWO FULL WEEKS to rehab it. They will be able to wrap and treat the muscle properly to prevent re-injury as much as possible. He's not going to be a tree in the backfield, people...because (a) that isn't who Aaron Rodgers is and (b) the Packers aren't winning this game with a Jerry Glanville offensive game plan.
He didn't practice for so long because he needed to let it heal as much as possible to decrease potential for re-injury. That is all.
He did run a QB sneak but he twisted so awkwardly it looked like he was shot. I agree that to read coverage this week is to ignore his second half effectiveness entirely in the Lions game.
They have run numbers on the running game from shotgun and Lacy (at midseason) was better in shotgun than std. formation, though it was close. I think the pistol is the compromise that gives more traditional run angles and AR a head start on his drop. Also gets him away from being tripped if his steps away from center are affected.
The Cowboys defensive strategy will be simple early.
They'll put pressure on AR and try to move him out of the pocket. He has to change up his game and maybe not play to the fact he's the most accurate passer in the NFL out of the pocket.
Aaron Rodgers cannot hold onto the ball too much for too long. His OL has to come up huge tomorrow. He and his WR's have to be on the same page in regards to routes.
Here is a perfect situation for MM and Aaron Rodgers to rely heavily on a solid running game.
The three stars for this game have to be :
Packers Team and Packers Team and Packers Team.
I hope the 'girls blitz Rodgers like crazy. We all know how well Aaron does against the blitz.
Just put some dirt and one of these on him and he'll be OK.

Nothing got more publicity this week.
A torn gastrocnemius can be a bitch to come back from, they can really linger and are super easy to re-injure. But lots of rest typically gets you there. 300# douche bags standing on ones leg is typically not part of treatment.
He's had two weeks of rest with a, theoretically, world class training staff. If he can prevent from flexing that last 3-5%, he should be ok.

Mike McCarthy: Aaron Rodgers feeling better this week than after Week 17

" Based on Sunday, Rodgers will be less mobile than usual but far from powerless to run the offense. Whether he’ll be able to run it better in Week One’s loss in Seattle will likely determine whether Green Bay has a chance to advance to the Super Bowl. "
