TAMPA — Sunday afternoon, things briefly appeared to be back to normal.

Russell Gage was in close proximity to the back of the end zone when Tom Brady threw a dart that slashed between two defenders and fell to him for a score.

The largest Buccaneers game attendance in Raymond James Stadium history, which had been constrained by errors, had come for this G.O.A.T. stuff.

The Green Bay defence all day, and penalties. But with only 18 seconds left, this was shaping up to be a typical Brady finish.

A simple two-point conversion was all that was required to force overtime.

The Bucs then struggled to start. Another pass to Gage was incomplete, and they were assessed a delay of game penalty.

In a metaphorical sense, this season's offensive, which has only mustered three touchdowns in three games, has been defined by a failure to get ready and a lack of execution.

But in the Bucs' 14-12 defeat to the Packers, it was actually the problem, and it wasn't a surprise.

A third weapon was offered by an offence that had lost its two main objectives.
