NFL Week 15 Game Recap: Tampa Bay Buccaneers 34, Green Bay Packers 20

In a revival of an old NFC Central rivalry, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers downed the Green Bay Packers 34-20 in Week 15.

Offensive spotlight: Several members of the Buccaneers offense were cooking in this game. Baker Mayfield finished with a perfect passer rating of 158.3, averaging 13.6 yards per attempt.

Mayfield's top target was Chris Godwin, who caught 10 of his 11 targets for 155 yards — averaging 5.17 yards per route run — and Rachaad White was excellent from the backfield. White caught two passes for 50 yards and a touchdown to go along with his 85 rushing yards, 65 of which came after contact.

Defensive spotlight: Green Bay’s coverage defense was awful, with players earning ugly PFF grades almost across the board. They had two forced incompletions combined but allowed 84.6% of passes thrown to be completed, amassing just one defensive stop on those passing plays. 

Rookie spotlight: Green Bay’s rookie skill position players on offense continued to impress. Tucker Kraft caught four passes for 57 yards and a touchdown, moving the chains three times. Dontayvion Wicks and Jayden Reed each caught six passes and combined notched seven first downs, with each averaging over 3.0 yards per route run.
