Jamaal Williams returns Pinion’s kick to the Green Bay 13, but the Packers are going to challenge that it hit the goal line for a touchback. So we have our first review of the game. This is somewhat less exciting than a touchdown run.
This time, Fournette gets the ball and he runs his way just barely into the end zone for a Buccaneers touchdown. Well, it’s looking like we very much might have a shootout here after all. The extra point is good.
Godwin drops a Brady pass, the third drop for Tampa Bay. 3rd & 9. Brady aims for Godwin again and he juggles it but makes a tumbling catch at the Packers 20 yard line. Well, that’s one way to make up for a drop.
Jones gets to midfield. It’s now 3rd & 3 for the Packers. Rodgers airs one out… long, REAL LONG to a running Marquez Valdes-Scantling who goes the distance! It’s a 50 yard touchdown for the Packers. The extra-point is good and this one is tied up.
This seems to be the conclusion: a lot of different answers but there is a common theme here: no matter who one happens to be rooting for, it’s not quite as passionate when they aren’t “your” team.
Rodgers finds Davonte Adams for a 15 yard gain and they’re already at their own 43. On 1st & 10, Rodgers finds Tonyan again for five yards. It’s 2nd & 5… and that’s the end of the first quarter. The Bucs struck first but the Packers have something cooking here.
Rodgers throws to Robert Tonyan for a gain of two yards and then gets sacked by Jason Pierre-Paul. The Packers are back at their 5, but Rodgers doesn’t sweat here, he throws to Allen Lazard for a 23 yard gain and a key first down!
