Buccaneers: How Strong Can They Finish the Season?
A 4-2 Finish?
With just six games remaining and the Bucs at .500 I think it’s fully possible this team goes 4-2 down the stretch and finishes with a 9-7 record.
Seattle will be an uphill climb as yet another former member of this franchise returns to try and spoil the home-crowd part. Michael Bennett is a true force to be reckoned with on the defensive line, and will probably be in Jameis Winston’s face all day.
As for San Diego, there lies a game which is certainly winnable. If the linebackers can contain Melvin Gordon and the line holds up for three seconds consistently, then this should be a ‘W’.
The two match-ups against the Saints are must-wins because they’re should-wins. Chris Conte has to keep the lid on Brandin Cooks, so expect him to be a hero or goat in that one.
Carolina has already fallen to the Bucs once, and there’s no reason they can’t do it again with Doug Martin on the field this time.
Dallas would be the other upset win for this team if they can pull it off, but the trio of Ezekiel Elliott with Dez Bryant and Dak Prescott just seems to be too much with the Cowboys’ offensive line playing the way they are.
