Tampa Bay Buccaneers full 2022 season predictions

Buccaneers opponents part three

Los Angeles Rams, Home- Loss 34-31

Can the Rams replicate their offensive firepower from last year? New additions Allen Robinson II and Bobby Wagner help bolster the team we lost to in the Divisional round of the playoffs last year, and unfortunately, I see this as another nail biting loss.

Seattle Seahawks, Home(played in Munich, Germany)- Win, 24-17

This has the chance to be a game that we will be sleeping on due to the long travel, looking forward to the bye week, and just coming off of two-straight losses. The Seahawks will probably give us more of a run than we expect, but the talent gap is just too big between these teams. Giving up the home game isn’t ideal, but at least Tampa will get a ton of international exposure.

Whew….. Finally…. The BYE.

Cleveland Browns, Away- Loss 28-24

Assuming Deshaun Watson is under center for this matchup, this could be a really tough game for Tampa. While having the BYE to recover, looking solely at roster talent, the Browns are extremely talented. With Watson throwing to Amari Cooper, the running back duo of Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt, and a ridiculous offensive line, these guys can score. The defense has a strong pass rush, which would lead us to have to change our script on offense and rely heavily on the run game.

New Orleans, Home- Loss, 24-14

During this late-season matchup, the murky playing statuses of Alvin Kamara, and Michael Thomas will have likely cleared up, and Tampa’s secondary struggles to cover the trio of Thomas, Jarvis Landry, and Chris Olave. The secondary is often the most underperforming part of our defense, and that bites us here.
