GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers have a golden opportunity to make a big move in the NFC playoff race when they face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday.
The Buccaneers are 2-0 but their offense will be at far less than full strength. They might be without their pair of 1,000-yard receivers. Mike Evans, the only receiver in NFL history with eight consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, will be out due to a suspension. Chris Godwin, who topped 1,000 yards two of the past three seasons, is out with a hamstring injury. Julio Jones, who leads all active receivers in yardage, will be a game-time decision with a knee injury.
