2) Roberto Aguayo

Alright, so maybe this is wishful thinking. The struggles of Aguayo have been absolutely gut-wrenching and agonizing for any viewer of the Bucs this season.

Against the Rams ,the Bucs lost for the very reason they drafted Aguayo: points left on the field from missed kicks. Against Denver, Aguayo didn’t have much of an opportunity to bounce back thanks to the ineptitude of the offense. Carolina should be a different story and Aguayo will get the chance in front of a national audience to reverse the narrative that’s begun to build against him.
