Predicting the rest of the 2023 Packers schedule after shocking win over Chiefs

Week 15 vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have fallen apart since opening the season with three wins in four weeks. They have lost six of their previous eight contests and barely overcame the one-win Carolina Panthers on Sunday.

Still, they have enough offensive firepower to concern the Packers. Mike Evans already has 1,012 yards and 10 touchdowns this season, while Tampa Bay will lean on running back Rachaad White.

The Packers need another fast start in this game. Build a lead against the 27th-ranked defense and make Baker Mayfield throw to win.

Prediction: Green Bay 24, Tampa Bay 17 (8-6)

Week 16 at Carolina Panthers

The Panthers have one win. First-overall pick Bryce Young has thrown nine touchdown passes and nine interceptions in 11 games, and Carolina has the third-worst scoring offense this season. The Panthers have allowed 47 sacks, the fourth-most in the NFL.

Joe Barry's defense should make life difficult for Young and Carolina's struggling offense, giving Green Bay its sixth win in a row.

Prediction: Green Bay 31, Carolina 14 (9-6)
