Its not quite the unstoppable force versus the stationary things, however the Green Bay offense versus the Tampa Bay defense will be the hardest challenge to date for both systems.
The bye week provided him some extra recovery time, and quarterback Aaron Rodgers sounds like hes anticipating Adams to return, discussing his own enjoyment for two offensive veterans– tight end Marcedes Lewis being the other– to be back in action this week.
The biggest changes for Sunday will be the Packers (probably) getting Adams back while the Buccaneers will be replacing defensive take on Vita Vea, who broke his leg last Thursday vs. the Bears and will miss out on the remainder of the season.
Rodgers stated he anticipates the Buccaneers to be viewing carefully how Adams looks running early in the video game and choose a protection technique appropriately.
This is certainly an all-hands-on-deck type of matchup against a Buccaneers defense that ranks among the leagues finest.
” Just getting those guys back in the fold is really, really important for us due to the fact that they infuse our squad with a great deal of confidence and permits other guys, I think, to play a bit more totally free understanding weve got 17 and 89 back,” Rodgers said.
By the numbers, the Packers rank 2nd in the league in overall backyards (fifth in rushing, 3rd in passing), 3rd in very first downs, initially in sack rate, and initially in points. The Bucs rank 2nd in lawns permitted (first in rushing, 16th in passing), 2nd in very first downs, 5th in sack rate, and 8th in points.
” A lot of times groups simply play their defense and trust the procedure that they go through to not attempt and leave him singled up a lot,” Rodgers stated. “But Im sure theyll have a plan for him. They need to.”
