NFL Power Rankings Week 11: Titans stun Chiefs to keep hope alive
23. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-6)
Recap: Following a heart-breaking loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 9, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers found themselves in a tug of war battle with the Arizona Cardinals in Week 10. All hope seemed to be lost after Ronald Jones lost a fumble late in the fourth quarter with the Bucs trailing by four, but Tampa Bay’s defense was able to come up with a huge turnover, picking off a Kyler Murray pass. The Bucs then went on to drive 92 yards en route to what proved to be the game-winning touchdown.
Outlook: The Bucs’ playoff hopes were already bleak coming into this week, and it’s going to take a bit of luck and Tampa Bay running the table to even have a prayer. That is going to be a tall task for this inconsistent Bucs squad. In Week 11, the Bucs have a meeting with the New Orleans Saints at home in a rematch of the Week 5 tilt that saw the Saints emerge victorious in New Orleans.
