In Week 3, the Green Bay Packers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will face off as Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady go head-to-head. Both teams are set to miss a handful of key players, and the situation isn't looking good for either team on offense. Having two of the best quarterbacks ever to play the game will definitely help both teams. However, both quarterbacks would be grateful for extra weapons on offense for this crucial fixture between two Super Bowl contenders.

The Buccaneers are set to miss Mike Evans and Chris Godwin for the game against Green Bay. Reports have recently emerged that the Packers will be without Christian Watson and Randall Cobb is also questionable for the game.

NFL fans were upset to see the Packers also missing their key receivers and Aaron Rodgers being left short-handed in a big game. Here are some of the reactions to the Packers' injury report:

The absence of Watson and Cobb could result in a big game for Allen Lazard. Lazard became WR1 in Green Bay following the trade of Davante Adams to the Las Vegas Raiders. Lazard scored in his season debut last week against the Chicago Bears.

When Davante Adams was traded to the Raiders, serious questions emerged about Aaron Rodgers and the Packers' offense. The franchise didn't bring in any big names during free agency, and as a result, Green Bay entered this season with a weaker group of receivers than in previous years.

If Rodgers is able to lead his team to a win in Week 3 against Tom Brady and the Buccaneers, that would be a huge statement. Tampa Bay have a great defense that has been on display in their first two games of the season.

With two receivers out, grinding out a win against the Buccaneers has become a lot tougher for the reigning NFL MVP. If he manages to pull off a win in this fixture, then people might begin to see the Packers as Super Bowl contenders once again.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are favorites to beat the Green Bay Packers, and it will be interesting to see which team comes out on top.
