Buccaneers 2017 season preview: Game predictions
By Zain Ahmed
Week 13: at Green Bay Packers, 1:00 PM
The Bucs will travel to historic Lambeau field as they face the Green Bay Packers. In the last matchup between the two, the Packers were victorious 20-3 in the 2014 season. Green Bay is coming off a 10-6 record where they won six straight to close out the regular season. The Packers made it to the NFC Conference Championship where they were absolutely handled by the Atlanta Falcons. With Aaron Rodgers, the Packers will always be competitive. Even when the rest of his team isn’t giving him much help, Rodgers keeps his team in the game. He is simply that good.
This matchup between the Packers and Bucs will be Rodgers vs. Jameis Winston. They will square off in what could be one of the best games of the season. Unfortunately, I believe Rodgers will get the best of Winston, which of course is no disrespect to Winston because going toe to toe with the best QB in football and losing is nothing to be ashamed of. The Packers will get one chance late in the game to win and Rodgers will lead Green Bay to the win as he has done many times before.
It could even be one of those “Hail Mary” passes that Rodgers has become so good at. Keep them in front of you, defense! Don’t let Jordy Nelson or anyone else to that back line!
