After the Buccaneers lost in ugly fashion to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 3, it felt like Week 4 couldn’t come soon enough and would also never come.

Alas, it was here, and the Buccaneers went into Raymond James Stadium trying to defend their home field for the second time this year.

Leading into this week, it had been an up-and-down season for the Bucs so far.

Their Week 1 match-up in Miami was derailed by hurricane concerns. This was followed by a dominant performance against former Tampa quarterback Mike Glennon and his Chicago Bears.

Then came the miserable visit to Minnesota.

Now this.

Next week, the path doesn’t get smoother. The Patriots may have lost a tough one against the Panthers this same weekend, but make no mistake they are a team to be reckoned with.

The Buccaneers will travel to New England for a short turnaround coming as the team’s take to the field this Thursday Night.

Before that happens though, we still have to grade the victory against the New York Giants.

Let’s get to it.
