Tampa Bay Buccaneers: 5 games that should totally be in prime-time

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are going to be one of the most exciting teams in the league in 2020. Here are five games that should totally be in prime-time.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are poised to be one of the most exciting teams in the league during the 2020 season.

The Buccaneers made the biggest splash of NFL free-agency when they signed QB Tom Brady and then followed that up by trading for his former teammate Rob Gronkowski to reunite the duo.

In addition, Tampa Bay brought back key pieces along the front-seven of the defensive unit, including Shaquil Barrett, Jason Pierre-Paul and Ndamukong Suh. Then, they selected several talented players in the NFL Draft who could become big-time play-makers at the next level.

All of those signings and selections have Buccaneers fans with just one cumulative thought on their mind: When can we play football?

The NFL is set to release its 2020 schedule at 8 p.m. tonight and teams are allowed to release their individual schedules at 7:30 p.m. Here’s a look at five games that should definitely be in prime-time.

5. vs. Atlanta Falcons

I love the idea of opening up the season with the Atlanta Falcons live on Monday Night Football.

Is it going to happen? Maybe not. But I really would love to see a game between the Bucs and the Falcons- two franchises that will likely be competing for a postseason berth- play against one another early in the season.

The rivalry is there. The talent and intrigue is there.

If not Monday Night Football, we still should this one in prime-time.
