It's been a rough few weeks for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, culminating a nadir on Sunday Night Football. In front of the entire NFL audience, the Buccaneers soiled the bed with a truly atrocious display on both sides of the ball, as the Los Angeles Rams showed Todd Bowles's defense levels while star quarterback Baker Mayfield suffered both insult and injury in the face of MVP front runner Matthew Stafford's big day.
The Buccaneers struggles over the last few weeks have hampered no single player more than de facto No. 1 wide receiver Emeka Egbuka. Thrust into the top role with Mike Evans and Chris Godwin's injuries, even the latter's return could not help Egbuka produce a better day.
