Coming off their worst loss of the season, a 37-9 loss to the Houston Texans, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers now must travel to Lambeau Field for their toughest test of the season - a Sunday afternoon matchup against their former division rival and undefeated Green Bay Packers. The Pack is led by unanimous midseason NFL MVP, Aaron Rodgers. The Packers' quarterback leads the league in nearly every meaningful passing statistic, including an astonishing 130 QB rating - nearly 28 points higher than the next best QB, Tom Brady.
After three straight losses, it's certainly not the kind of matchup the Bucs need right now. Josh Freeman had his worst game of the season on Sunday, throwing three interceptions against Houston (including two on consecutive passes). The Packers have the second worst pass defense in the league, so the Bucs will have an opportunity to put some points on the board. Stopping Rodgers and the Packer wideouts, however, could be a whole different matter.
