The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will host the Green Bay Packers in Week 3 of the NFL season on Sunday (September 25) at the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida.
Tampa started off on a 2-0 run this season, whereas Green Bay is 1-1. Although it is early days, the Buccaneers sit atop the National League Conference West division.
Their first win (19-3_ came against the Dallas Cowboys in a one-sided clash. All-Star veteran Tom Brady was in the thick of things, producing good numbers.
He picked up 212 passing yards in 18/27 attacks and earned a TD and an interception for the team. Mike Evans was another performer, who managed 71 receiving yards with five receptions and a TD. Game 2 also saw a similar performance but from different players from the Buccaneers.

Ryan Succop proved priceless with his 2/2 kicking, a 100% record on the night, getting eight valuable points for his team. Jake Camarda, who plays as the punter, had a fabulous night as well.
Meanwhile, Green Bay's start to the season was not a good one, as they lost to the Minnesota Vikings in their opener. However, they came back strongly in Game 2, beating the Chicago Bears 27-10.
In this battle of two NL Conference teams, it will be exciting to see who comes out on top.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Green Bay Packers: Pick
Mike Evans' suspension has put Tampa on the backfoot leading to this game. Donovon Smith and Cade Otton are doubtful to start. As the offense hasn't gone up to that level, it's fair to say that Aaron Rodgers could be the pick of the game. With multiple injuries surrounding the Buccanneers, it's a great chance for Aaron Rodgers to produce great numbers for the Packers.
Pick: Aaron Rodgers Total Interceptions Over 0.5 (+105)
