Going against the Buccaneers this week are the Buffalo Bills (3-2) who are off to a hot start with big wins over the Denver Broncos and Atlanta Falcons. They are also coming off their early bye week so they should be well-rested and prepared.

The Buccaneers are on a bit of a cold streak entering this week losing two straight to the New England Patriots and the Arizona Cardinals.

The offense looks out of sync and they might be without Jameis Winston.

While the Bills may not have the best roster on paper they are playing as a unit under a new regime with Sean McDermott.

They have the best scoring defense in the NFL and the seventh-ranked rush defense.

Their offense is a work in progress, but they have a big weapon with one of the best NFL running backs in LeSean McCoy.

The Buccaneers need to get their act together if they want to win in Buffalo. They are lucky they get to play there in October as the temperature is projected to be 74 degrees.

The Bills won’t have the advantage of the cold, but they still have their Bills Mafia fan base.

Dirk Koetter and Mike Smith need to have a strong game plan against these Bills because they will be ready. A half-game behind the Patriots for the division lead in the AFC East the Bills need wins to keep up. Here are some key players to keep an eye on for the Buccaneers.
