Cheese Curds, 10/14: Packers defense eyes Brady turnovers; 1-yard offense still a problem

The Green Bay Packers’ defense has not been a strong source of turnovers yet this season. With three takeaways, the unit ranks just 27th in the NFL, and fortunately the team has a +3 turnover differential thanks to the offense’s tremendous ball control through four games.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers? They are a different story.

Tampa has a +2 differential on the season, but that is largely because they rank sixth in the NFL with nine takeaways. They have given the ball up seven times this season, with Tom Brady throwing four interceptions — two of which have been returned for touchdowns.
