WEEK 1 Sunday September 11th 1:00 @ Atlanta Falcons
Week one starts off with a rivalry that should only grow from here on. New head coach Dirk Koetter and defensive coordinator Mike Smith team up officially for the first time since back in 2014 for, none other than the Atlanta Falcons. The revamped Bucs face off against a team they swept last year.
I see the Falcons being much more consistent this season than last year, but they start off with a loss in the Kwon vs Julio revenge game (remember last year where Julio tackled Kwon on an interception return and Kwon stole the ball from Jones on a slant). I’m sure neither of them forgot.
In a mostly, offensive game Bucs win 35-28. (1-0)
Next: Week Two: Arizona Cardinals
