From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
Tom is the GOAT. He is also a statue whose play also nosedives when under pressure and forced off his spot. I am skeptical that our secondary without King can matchup well against all their weapons, but if he can put some heat on Brady, then I think we should be fine on defense.
Offense, I am not too worried about. Tampa's defense appears to be solid but has some weaknesses that can be exploited, and their team as a whole is pretty undisciplined. They could beat us, and I have no doubt Brady will make a game of it, but I am not too worried overall.

Green Bay Packers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Oddsmakers initially set this lookahead at Tampa Bay -3 after the Packers Monday night win over the Falcons. Bettors bet that down all the way to Bucs -2.5 before oddsmakers took it down prior to Tampa’s Thursday night game against the Bears. Tampa lost outright as short road favorites. Oddsmakers reposted it at Tampa -1.5 before reversing course and reposting it at Tampa +1. Since that point, the early action has continued to come in on the Packers, betting this line all the way up to the Packers -2.5.
That’s a massive 5.5 point swing despite no injuries at all.
The total opened at 52 and has been bet up to 54.5
