Buccaneers vs. Giants announcers, TV channel, referees for Week 12 game

After losing four straight games, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are coming out of their bye week hoping to right the ship and get the season back on track. The good news is that the schedule lines up with this being an extremely likely outcome to the next few weeks, as Tampa Bay is set to play the three worst teams its faced so far this year.

The soft stretch of the schedule begins on Sunday with a matchup against the New York Giants. While traces of a trap game are present, the Bucs should be able to take care of business against a team that just benched and released its starting quarterback and is going through all sorts of locker room chaos.

If the Bucs play the way we saw them capable of playing earlier in the year, this should be exactly the get-right game they need.

Who are the announcers for Buccaneers vs. Giants today?

For the first time this season the Bucs are going to be playing a game airing on CBS, which might seem a bit odd since it's a pair of NFC teams. Thanks to the new television rights rules, there isn't a strict conference alignment with a certain network which means games like the Bucs-Giants can air on CBS when traditionally it would be an obvious FOX game.

Bucs fans will haer Andrew Catalon, Tiki Barber, Jason McCourty on the call for CBS.

It's worth noting that last year the Bucs played a slew of odd CBS games right around the time they started to pull themselves out of a 1-6 slump to save the season. Tampa Bay is in an almost identical spot coming into this Sunday's game, so perhaps history is about to repeat itself and fans will finally have some good things to start cheering about.

Referees for Buccaneers vs. Giants in Week 12

Head Referee (Crew Chief)

Adrian Hill will be the lead official for Sunday's game, marking the 11th time he's called a Buccaneers game in his career. Over that time, the Bucs are 4-6 in those games which isn't exactly great but it's worth noting that Hill called most of his games during the dark periods of the last decade.

Perhaps boding well for the Bucs is the last game Hill called for them also involved an NFC East team as it was the Wild Card beatdown of the Philadelphia Eagles back in Janurary.
