Tampa Bay is going to face some top-notch teams in 2020, and these are the five best players that the Buccaneers will play against.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have to win big in 2020, but the talent that they will face will be some of the best in the entire NFL. Trying to meet the growing expectations of the fanbase will be an extremely tall task.

Tampa Bay is facing four teams that made the playoffs in 2019, including the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs. Through these rosters, there are numerous All-Pros and some of the best players currently in the NFL.

While most individual players can’t single-handedly win games, the Bucs are playing several teams that have a player at that level.

Every year the NFL puts out a list of the top-100 players in the league that the players vote on. Generally, this is a good depiction of the best talent in the league and is free of the popularity bias that plagues the Pro Bowl.

Of these hundred players on the list, there is a very good chance that the five-best players that the Bucs will face will all be in the top-10. This group is almost entirely made up of proven players that are currently playing at a Hall of Fame pace, and the Buccaneers will have a difficult time trying to shut them down when the season starts.

Here are the five best players the Buccaneers will face in 2020.
