For the first time this decade, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers do not control their playoff destiny entering the final Sunday of the regular season.
Even though the Bucs were able to snap a four-game losing streak and end the season with a win over the Panthers, they'll need help in order to keep their historic NFC South reign alive. Tampa Bay needs a New Orleans victory over Atlanta in order to win the division, otherwise the Panthers will snatch the crown away with an 8-9 record.
That's not exactly something to pride yourself on, which is sort of the point.
