The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have struck first in the much-anticipated NFC Championship Game between Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers of the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field.
Brady connected with Mike Evans twice on the opening drive to give the Bucs a 7-0 lead. Brady hit Evans for a 27-yard catch on a corner route working against Chandon Sullivan on third-and-4.
Evans then leaped up in the end zone working against Kevin King for a 15-yard touchdown grab. A win today would send Brady to his 10th Super Bowl and the Bucs to their second.
