Since the loss to Atlanta, the Buccaneers have rattled off three wins in a row and two of the most impressive victories I’ve seen in a long time. Can they win the division?

The Buccaneers are a game behind the division leading Atlanta Falcons and with five games remaining they need some help if they want to make a run at the division title. I can’t believe I actually am discussing the possibility of the playoffs this late in the season, but after the past two weeks anything is possible.

The Bucs have a tough road ahead of them to chase down the Falcons but splitting the season series with them already their own fate. Let’s go week by week and compare what the Bucs need to do to surpass Atlanta for division supremacy.
