Buccaneers vs. Packers: Everything You Need To Know

TAMPA, FL – At the start of the year, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers trip to Green Bay looked like it would be a great battle between two top-notch quarterbacks for playoff positioning.

Unfortunately for both squads, injuries and lackluster performances have both teams looking for answers heading into their Week 13 matchup.

The Packers are coming in with a two-game losing streak after being shut out by the Baltimore Ravens in Week 11 and falling in the final seconds to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers has not yet returned to practice after breaking his right collarbone earlier this season.

After two straight wins, the Bucs couldn’t contain the potent wide receiver pair of Julio Jones and Mohamed Sanu in their 34-20 loss last week. However, Jameis Winston was announced as this week’s starting quarterback.
