A game to forget for Bucs fans. They trailed the Packers 49-7 at the half, thereby setting an NFL record for the most points conceeded in league history in a half. Green Bay rolled up over 500 yards of offense and scored in almost every way possible, run, pass, kick, interception return, fumble return and punt return.
The Bucs were playing without three starters in their defensive secondary, both offensive guards and James Wilder, and did finally score an offensive touchdown late in the game.
