The Green Bay Packers made crucial individual mistakes on offense and defense in losing to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during Sunday’s NFC Championship Game at Lambeau Field.
Here are the studs and duds from the Packers’ 31-26 loss to the Buccaneers.
Studs
CB Jaire Alexander: He broke up a pass in one-on-one coverage, smothered Mike Evans on Adrian Amos’ interception, gave up just one completion and was in the right place at the right time on his two interceptions. It was a dominant individual performance. Tom Brady attempted 14 passes to the defense’s right side – Alexander’s side – but completed just five for 39 yards and two picks.
