Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 28. team. 48. RECAP: The Buccaneers are coming off their bye week hoping to finally be healthy. Several players are listed as questionable, including the majority of their defensive line. Noah Spence, Robert Ayers, and Gerald McCoy have all been dealing with injuries, resulting in teams taking advantage of their rushing offense. Cameron Artis-Payne had two touchdowns for the Panthers prior to Tampa Bay’s bye week, showing how much they missed members of their front-seven. Quarterback Jameis Winston will need to limit the turnovers since turning the ball over more than he has thrown touchdowns. He will hope to have Doug Martin to help balance the offense against a 49ers team that will be desperate at home.
<p>Next Week: Speaking of the 49ers, Jameis Winston is due for a major performance, and there is no team better to do that against than San Francisco. Chip Kelly does not believe in time of possession, which will result in Winston having control of the ball for nearly 40 minutes.</p>
<p>Playoff hopes: Tampa Bay is just two games behind the Falcons, but they might as well be a worlds away from first place. They have yet to win at home, and their -48 point differential will not hold-up for an entire season. Their playoff chances are slim to none the way their defense allows points and the offense turns the ball over.</p>. 2-3. Previous:
