This will be Brady and Rodgers’ 5th meeting as starting quarterbacks, with Brady’s teams winning 3 of them. That includes the two games in which Brady has played for the Buccaneers and the team has averaged 34.5 points per game. In the 2020 NFC Championship Game, Tampa Bay defeated Green Bay 31-26 at Lambeau Field to earn a spot in the Super Bowl.
