The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are set to take on the New York Giants in week three of the 2019 season; here are four matchups to watch closely in this one.

After two weeks the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are sitting at 1-1, and I think a lot of fans would be happy with that as the New York Giants come to town. Considering the health and status of the other three teams around the league, the Buccaneers could be in the driver’s seat to win the NFC South.

Through two games the Bucs’ defense looks like it has taken a 360-degree turn, while the offense is still adjusting to the new offensive system under Bruce Arians and Byron Leftwich. With the New York Giants up next for the pewter and red at home, sixth overall pick Daniel Jones could be in a world of trouble as he makes his NFL debut at quarterback as the Giants look to avoid going 0-3.

Tampa Bay will have their work cut out for them against a couple of Giants players as the prepare to roll into Raymond James Stadium on Sunday. Here are four matchups to keep an eye on Sunday as the Buccaneers look to improve to 2-1 on the season and hope to drop the Giants to an 0-3 start.
