Tampa Bay Buccaneers 0 Green Bay Packers 13
Sunday 23 October 1977 at Tampa Stadium
Another home game, another shutout. The defense held the Packers to just 218 yards and 14 first downs, but both
these numbers eclipsed the Bucs' totals. Randy Hedberg had another forgettable performance in relief of Gary
Huff, two of his five completions going to the guys in the white shirts not orange. The Bucs were 4.5 point
underdogs in this game but failed to cover the spread for the second straight week. LB turned TE Dana Nafziger led
the Bucs in receiving.
