For just the third time in their illustrious NFL histories, Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady will match wits on the football field. They’ve each won one previous meeting. Of course, both came while Brady was quarterback of the New England Patriots.
This will be the the first time that they face each other as NFC QBs. Brady’s Bucs hold the home-field advantage.
Rodgers posted with a 26-21 verdict in their first contest. Brady engineered a 31-17 decision in the second meeting.
Who’s in and who’s out is vitally important to betting player props in Sunday’s game. A pair of key receivers – Green Bay’s Davante Adams and Tampa Bay’s Chris Godwin – are back from injury.
The Packers are 1-point road favorites. Check out our updated injury reports, as well as other betting options. Let’s start with the lines for player props.

Prop #1: QB Yards Won’t Add Up
Rodgers has gone over 302.5 yards in two of his four starts but he’ll be facing the NFL’s #2 defense on Sunday, as well as the #8 scoring defense. Tampa Bay surrenders just 239.8 yards per game through the air.

Green Bay’s pass defense is almost as stingy. The Packers have held opposing passers to only 247.5 yards of passing per contest.
Play the under in passing yardage for both Brady and Rodgers.
Pick: Rodgers under 302.5 passing yards (-112), 1 unit; Brady under 295.5 passing yards (-106), 1 unit.
Prop #2: Keeping Up With Jones
Both teams rely on a Jones in their backfield. Coming off a bye week, Green Bay’s Aaron Jones figures to be fresh and ready to carry a load.

Jones has yet to carry the ball more than 18 times in game. But he’s been effective with his overall touches.
Play the over on Jones’ combined rush/receving yards.
Pick: Aaron Jones over 97.5 rushing + receiving yards (-112), 1 unit.

Who Are the Best Bets to Score a Touchdown?
Stick with Aaron Jones. He’s found the end zone six times in four games and at least once in every game. Lock him in at +240 for an anytime TD.
Most red-zone TD receptions this season:
🔹 Adam Thielen – 5
🔹 Mike Evans – 5
🔹 Jimmy Graham – 4
🔹 Robert Tonyan – 4 pic.twitter.com/hUvn9laQ5F— PFF Fantasy Football (@PFF_Fantasy) October 12, 2020
The Buccaneers have scored the first TD in all five of their games and each week it’s been a different player who found the end zone. Receiver Mike Evans has six TDs and has scored in every game.
- Evans anytime touchdown (-134) – 1 unit
- Aaron Jones anytime touchdown (+240) – 1 unit
