Three reasons the Tampa Bay Buccaneers should dominate the Chicago Bears

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will travel up to Soldier Field to take on the Chicago Bears in a pivotal early-season Thursday night matchup.

The Buccaneers, who improved to 3-1 on the season with against the Chargers last Sunday, are now looking to maintain their lead in the NFC South Division and solidify themselves as legitimate contenders early on in the 2020 campaign.

The Bears were a perfect 3-0, but quickly fell apart last week against the Indianapolis Colts and now will be looking to rebound against the Bucs at home on a short week.

Here’s a look at three reasons why Tampa Bay should dominate the Chicago Bears.

3. Nick Foles is not near as dynamic of a QB as Bucs have faced already

Nick Foles was named the starting quarterback heading into the week against the Colts, but fell flat in his starting debut with the Bears.

Now, he’ll be looking to rebound and play at a higher level this Thursday against the Buccaneers, and that doesn’t spell success for Chicago.

The Bucs have one of the best pass-rushes in the league and the secondary has come together nicely. Tampa Bay has already forced eight turnovers (5 INTs and 3 fumbles) in the first four games of the season and that spells major trouble for Foles.
