Per AccuWeather.com<\/a>,\u00a0 just right for a day without a lot of sun. Tailgaters will start pounding beers and grilling meat with temperatures in the low-80s with some clouds. It will warm up to 88 by kickoff and gradually rise to 91 in the second half under cloudy skies. By game\u2019s end, the temperature will dip. Don\u2019t hang out too long pounding beers after the game. By 5 p.m., thunderstorms are expected.<\/p>\n Odds: Per Hard Rock Bet<\/a>, as of midnight, Bucs +3 (-105); over\/under 38.5.<\/p>\n Referees: Adrian Hill and his gang will work today\u2019s game. Per Sharp Football Analysis<\/a>, in games that Hill\u2019s outfit work, the home team is 57-55 against the spread. With Hill\u2019s posse calling a game, home teams win 47 percent of the time.<\/p>\n Injuries: Packers \u2014 Out: G Aaron Banks (knee\/toe), DT Warren Brinson (calf\/groinhamstring), DT Anthony Campbell (ankle), C\/G Jacob Monk (quad).

Questionable: ILB Sir\u2019Voccea Dennis (calf), DT Rakeem Nunez-Roches (ankle\/foot), CB Jacob Parrish (personal).<\/p>\n Outlook: \u00a0It looks grim for the Bucs at 0-3. The major reason they still have a prayer of the playoffs is they play in the NFC South landfill. If Joe told you a team would win the NFC South landfill with a 7-10 record, would you be surprised? It\u2019s that bad. One team since the postseason was expanded to 14 games has made the playoffs after an 0-3 start \u2014 and the Bucs don\u2019t have the defense that last year\u2019s Houston squad had. Sorry. As the Sage of Tampa Bay sports, Ira Kaufman, likes to point out, just one team in NFL history has made the playoffs after an 0-4 start. And boys and girls, Stan Humphries is not walking through the black curtain<\/a> of The Licht House. As bad as the Bucs are playing, the Packers looked just as bad 10 days ago getting blown out by the Dixie Chicks in storied Lambeau Field on Thursday Night Football. And now, with the Bucs\u2019 season peering into the abyss, the Bucs are starting an undrafted rookie quarterback who has a total of four snaps, one attempt and one pick to his name. Fun times! The only way \u201cthis Joe\u201d can see the Bucs winning is if the unknown about Daniels fully throws off the Packers. Look for deep shots to take advantage of Daniels\u2019 arm and, of course, keepers to use his wheels. It wouldn\u2019t shock Joe if the Bucs won, but since the Bucs haven\u2019t covered in an NFL record 12 straight games, you won\u2019t catch Joe putting any money on the Bucs, sorry.<\/p>\n Fun facts: Backup quarterbacks starting starting this season are 6-0. \u2026 Packers QB Jordan Love passed for 312 yards and a pair of scores last week, his seventh-career 300+ yard game. He passed for 284 yards and two touchdowns the last time he faced the Bucs. \u2026 WR Christian Watson led the Packers with 7 catches and had 96 receiving yards, catching his fourth touchdown of the season. Watson aims for his third straight road game and fifth game in a row with a TD catch. Watson averages 17 yards per catch. \u2026 TE Tucker Kraft has 50 receiving yards in four of his last five road games. He had 57 receiving yards and a touchdown catch in his last game against the Bucs. \u2026 LB Zaire Franklin had 10 tackles and his 35th career tackle for loss in a loss to the Dixie Chicks. Last Thursday he also had his 36th career game with 10+ tackles. Franklin has at least five tackles in 34 of his last 35 road games. \u2026 EDGE Lukas Van Ness looks for his third road game in a row with a sack. \u2026 S Xavier McKinney had his 14th career pick last week and is third among safeties since 2022.\u00a0\u2026 Bucs QB Jalon Daniels makes his first NFL start. Will be the first undrafted rookie quarterback to start a game in the first four weeks of the season since 1987 and second since 1970. \u2026 RB Bucky Irving had 58 scrimmage yards (46 rushing, 12 receiving) last week and aims for his fifth game in a row with at least 50 scrimmage yards. Bucky has 50+ scrimmage yards in 16 of his 17 career home games. \u2026 WR Chris Godwin had 10 catches for 155 yards in last meeting in Green Bay. Godwin looks for his third straight game against Green Bay (which includes the 2020 NFC title game) with at least 110 yards receiving. \u2026 OLB David Walker had two tackles for loss last week. He\u2019s looking for his third game in a row with a sack. \u2026 OLB Alex Anzalone had his first sack of the season last week. The former Lions linebacker has at least five tackles in seven of his last eight games facing the Packers. \u2026 S Antoine Winfield had 10 tackles and a forced fumble the last time the Bucs played the Packers. Winfield looks for his fourth game in a row against Green Bay with at least 5\u00a0 tackles.<\/p>\n From The Insiders on @NFLNetwork<\/a>: A discussion with @JeffDarlington<\/a> of what\u2019s ahead for the #Bucs<\/a>. pic.twitter.com\/wnnanpaU1O<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 30, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n Jalon Daniels is starting for my Tampa Bay Buccaneers and I can’t wait to see what this young man can do!@DKSports<\/a> #dkpartner<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/naUacksuSY<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Jon Gruden (@BarstoolGruden) October 3, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n \t\t\t
