To say it was a big day for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is perhaps an understatement.
The team comfortably beat the Green Bay Packers 34-20 at Lambeau Field on Sunday, moving to 7-7 on the year. It was a high-flying game for the Bucs offense, scoring four touchdowns en route to a dominant performance against the Packers. Baker Mayfield put up a perfect passer rating, Rachaad White found the end zone again and the Bucs defense even got a late turnover on quarterback Jordan Love to seal the victory.
As usual, social media had a lot to say about Tampa Bay’s big game, and it was all elation after the huge victory. Check out what they had to say below:
Bucs & Packers both needed this one in a big way, and TB got it done. HUGE win on the road against a conference opponent, offense exploded for 34 points, defense made clutch plays when they needed them most. 3 straight wins, back to .500 with 3 weeks to go.

How bout that Baker Mayfield, throwing for 381 and 4 TDs without an interception at Lambeau as the Bucs maintained their division lead with a 34-20 win. I’ve defended him for years. Look at him now.

Bucs offensive coordinator is stuffing Joe Barry in a locker right now

Earlier in the week I posted that Tampa Bay would beat The Pack. Of course I got laughed at by the stinky cheese but as usual I got the last laugh. The Bucs badly neat GB

It’s not like the Bucs had to make many contested catches today, either, just based off the eye test. Just seemed like a nice afternoon of pitch and catch for Baker Mayfield and his guys.

Honestly didn’t think the #Bucs had a win like that in them. Cleanest they’ve played offensively this season. Playing Joe Barry always helps, but really impressed with Mayfield, and a big game from Godwin when they needed it.

I’m convinced the Bucs are doing routes on air right now

First time in a minute that the Bucs flat out outcoached a team.
Love to see it.

I didn’t see that coming, but in terms of watchability there is no question that the Bucs should win that NFC South race.
They have highly entertaining games. Like in a good sense. Not in the it’s entertaining to watch how Ridder messes up next sense

No complaints today. Some defensive breakdowns and the fumble at the beginning of the game, but THATS what the Bucs can be when firing on all cylinders. Most complete game of the season from coaching staff to each position group #GoBucs

I was dead wrong about this game. Thoroughly impressed with Tampa Bay. Defense benefitted from a shaky Jordan Love, but either way, they did enough.
As for the offense, Baker Mayfield’s best game? Dave Canales’ best game? Definitely Chris Godwin’s best game. #GoBucs pic.twitter.com/Hgcc3J4TCc

What a game by Baker Mayfield and Dave Canales. #GoBucs

Dave Canales has got Joe Barry’s unit spinning in circles right now
