The first division game for the Buccaneers this season will be a huge game for their playoff hopes. The Bucs, (2-4), really need a win in the division to have a shot at winning the division title.
The Panthers, (4-3), have been up and down this season but are 3-1 on the road. Cam Newton is coming off back to back losses where he’s had only two touchdowns and six turnovers. Jameis still has the lingering shoulder injury but performed better than expected in the three-point loss to Buffalo. While the Panthers offense hasn’t been elite this year Cam always finds a way to make big plays against Tampa.
