The Buccaneers are hanging in against the Packers.

Turning away a 4th-and-1 attempt at their one-yard-line, the Bucs remain within one score at 10-3 as the fourth quarter begins in Tampa Bay.

On the fourth-down try, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ throw to Randall Cobb fell incomplete. On the previous two plays, the Buccaneers stuffed Green Bay rushing attempts.

The Packers would force the Buccaneers to punt on the ensuing possession, which again puts the onus on Tampa Bay’s defense to keep the team in the game.

UPDATE: The Packers have added to their lead and hold a 13-3 edge in the fourth quarter.
