Aaron Rodgers threw for 281 yards and two touchdowns and the unbeaten Green Bay Packers clinched a first-round bye with a 46-16 rout of the visiting Oakland Raiders on Sunday in a game that was dampened by the loss of leading receiver Greg Jennings.

Rodgers joined Peyton Manning and Tom Brady as the only quarterbacks to throw for at least two touchdowns in 13 straight games.

Ryan Grant ran for 85 yards and a pair of scores for the Packers (13-0), who forced five turnovers and extended the NFL’s second-longest winning streak to 19 games with ease.

Green Bay shattered the franchise single-season scoring record late in the third quarter when Erik Walden scooped up a fumble and returned it five yards for a touchdown. Shortly after, that Rodgers was replaced by backup Matt Flynn.

The Packers are just the eighth team in NFL history to start 13-0. Green Bay will continue its pursuit of perfection next week in Kansas City before returning home to face Chicago and Detroit.

It may have to do it without Jennings, who didn’t return after being carted off with a knee injury midway through the third quarter.

While Green Bay needed a last-second field goal to stay unbeaten against the New York Giants last week, all the suspense was removed from this contest early.

Oakland (7-6) barely up put a fight in the first half after struggling in a 34-14 loss to Miami last week. The 31-0 halftime deficit was the largest in Raiders’ history.

Oakland, which hasn’t reached the postseason since 2002, fell one game behind Denver in the AFC West after Tim Tebow pulled out another win over the Chicago Bears.
