The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will travel to Green Bay, Wisconsin to face the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field in week 15 of the NFL season with the game kicking off at 1:00 PM ET on Sunday afternoon and will air on CBS.

 

Tampa Bay enters this game tied for 1^st place in the NFC South with the New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons with a record of 6-7 and are on a two-game winning streak following Sunday’s 29-25 win at home against the Atlanta Falcons. The Buccaneers have won both games during their winning streak by a total of 7 points and one of the wins came against the team with the worst record in the NFL, the Carolina Panthers, by a score of 21-18.

 

Tampa Bay has had an above-average scoring defense this season as they are allowing an average of 20.77 points per game which ranks 13^th in the league. However, they are one of the lowest-scoring teams and have one of the worst rushing offenses in the league as they are averaging 90 rushing yards per game while averaging 20.15 points per game. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will look to extend their winning streak to three games when they travel to face their old NFC Central Division rival, the Green Bay Packers, in week 15 of the NFL season.

 

The Green Bay Packers looked like they were on their way to their 4^th win in a row following a touchdown pass from Jordan Love to Malik Heath with 1:33 left in the game to take the 22-21 win, however, they allowed a 32 yards pass from Tommy DeVito to Wan’Dale Robinson which allowed the Giants to get into field goal range and to kick the game-winning field goal, which Randy Bullock did with 2 seconds left in the game. The loss ended the three-game winning streak for the Packers, however, they would be in the playoffs as the 7^th seed in the NFC if the playoffs started today. The Packers have been a below-average scoring team as they are averaging 21.54 points per game which is below the 21.71 league average while they have had an above-average scoring defense that is allowing the 11^th fewest points per game with an average of 20.54 points per game. The Packers will look to bounce back following the loss against the Giants when they host the Buccaneers on Sunday afternoon.
