Packers' Aaron Rodgers implies he worked the officials before Bucs' penalty on crucial 2-point play

The Buccaneers almost completed a last-minute comeback against the Packers in the team's Week 3 battle Sunday.

Tom Brady threw a touchdown pass to Russell Gage with 14 seconds remaining in regulation to cut Green Bay's lead to 14-12. The Bucs needed a 2-point conversion to send the game to overtime.

But Tampa Bay was unable to do that, and delay of game penalty played a part. The Bucs were whistled for the infraction and were backed up to the Packers' 7. Brady's conversion pass fell incomplete.

After the game, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers appeared to take credit for the officials' call.
