The 3-2 Tampa Bay Buccaneers will host the 4-0 Green Bay Packers in Week 6 in a matchup of two future Hall of Fame quarterbacks.

Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers are two absolute superstars and love competing against each other, so this Buccaneers-Packers game should be a good one from start to finish.

The last time Brady and Rodgers met was in 2018. The New England Patriots took down the Packers by a final score of 31-17, with Brady throwing for 294 yards and one touchdown and Rodgers finishing with 259 yards and two touchdown passes.

Brady and the Buccaneers are coming off a road loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 5, while the Packers had Week 5 off as their bye week.

With that said, ClutchPoints has made four bold predictions from a Buccaneers' perspective.

1. Tom Brady bounces back from subpar game vs. Bears

Brady looked pretty average against the Bears in Week 5 in Chicago. While he threw a touchdown to Mike Evans, Brady completed just 25 of 41 passes for 253 yards in a 20-19 loss. He also got sacked quite a bit and looked like he forgot what down it was at the end of the game, though Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians shot that notion down.

No one hates losing more than Brady, so look for the six-time champion to bounce back in a big way against the Packers with Rodgers coming to town.

In his first season with the Buccaneers after a stellar run in New England, Brady has thrown for 1,375 yards and 12 touchdowns. He has four interceptions as well.

The Packers are allowing 247 yards per game on the season. Look for Brady to take advantage of Green Bay's suspect secondary and regain some of the momentum he had before his subpar game against the Bears in Week 5.

Brady has faced the Packers five times during his amazing career. He's thrown for 1,129 yards and 10 touchdowns while compiling a record of 3-2.

2. Mike Evans will play and catch two touchdowns from Brady

Evans is once again dealing with a sprained ankle and the Buccaneers are continuing to play it coy with his status.

However, look for Evans to suit up against the Packers and catch two touchdowns from Brady. The three-time Pro Bowler already has six touchdowns on the season and excellent rapport with Brady.

Along with his six touchdown catches, Evans has caught 22 balls from Brady for 271 yards. He should be able to have a powerful game against the Packers since Green Bay doesn't have that stout of a secondary.

Since entering the NFL, Evans has caught 484 balls for 7,531 yards and 54 touchdowns in the regular season.

3. Ronald Jones rushes for 100-plus yards and one touchdown

Through the Buccaneers' first five games of the season, Jones has carried the ball 74 times for 359 yards and one touchdown. The Packers are allowing only 105 rushing yards per game, good for eighth in the NFL.

However, look for Jones to rush for 100-plus yards and score a touchdown against the Packers. He's a physical, bruising running back who should be able to find some running holes against Green Bay, especially after Brady ripped center Ryan Jensen for his penalty-filled game against the Bears in Week 5.

This is the first time in his young career that Jones will go against the Packers. Since Green Bay is coming off its bye week, the defense could be rusty, so look for Jones to carve up the Packers' run defense and help Brady and the offense move the ball down the field.

4. Buccaneers beat Packers to improve to 4-2

The Packers are one of four undefeated teams left in the NFL. Green Bay lost to the San Francisco 49ers in the 2019 NFC Championship game, so Rodgers and Co. are very hungry to get to the Super Bowl this season since they were so close last season in Matt LaFleur's first year as head coach.

However, Brady and the Buccaneers are going to win this game. They are undefeated at home and history has shown us that Brady is one of the few quarterbacks in NFL history who doesn't lose two games in a row that often. His attention to detail goes to a whole new level when he's coming off a loss and Brady is motivated to prove the critics who believe he's washed wrong.

The Buccaneers, New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers are all 3-2 on the season. It appears the NFC South is going to be a close race this season, meaning Tampa Bay has to take every game from here on out very seriously.

Look for the Buccaneers and Brady to send a message to the rest of the NFL in Week 6 by handing the Packers their first loss.
