Despite the Bucs having a 14-0 lead early in the third quarter, the Packers adapted to the muddy conditions
created by pre-game snow and scored four times in the second half to drop the Bucs to 4-10 on the season.
James Wilder threw a TD pass on a half-back option and the Bucs picked off three Lynn Dickey passes, but four
Tampa Bay fumbles proved too much to overcome.
