After missing week one of the regular season due to hurricane Irma, the Buccaneers take the field at home versus the Bears. Who are some players to watch?

The Buccaneers will finally be taking the field this Sunday as they welcome the Chicago Bears into Raymond James Stadium – including the homecoming of former Bucs quarterback Mike Glennon. The Bears pose a few threats offensively in Jordan Howard and Tarik Cohen, but they’re now missing their top two receivers in Cam Meredith and Kevin White due to injuries, leaving them with Markus Wheaton and Kendell Wright as Mike Glennon’s passing weapons.

The Bucs finally get to unleash their high octane offense for an entire game this week. We witnessed them move the ball with ease in the preseason but have some problems finishing drives. Now that there is actual game planning and play calling that isn’t as basic as it gets, scoring shouldn’t be much of a problem.

But who are the five biggest Buccaneers players to watch for Sunday against the Bears?
