Five reasons the Buccaneers will (and won’t) make the NFL playoffs this season

Ahhhhh, the NFL in May. Clean slates and fresh starts. Optimism is in the air. Everyone is 0-0.

Playoffs? Super Bowl? Sure, why not? Dream away.

When it comes to the 2019 Tampa Bay Buccaneers, however, they are a lot of killjoys out there. Most projection models and power rankings see a shipwreck of a season ahead.

Really, though, can you blame anyone for being down on the Bucs? We’ve seen this movie before, haven’t we? It’s good now, but by Halloween? Painful.

Even so, there’s a chance, however small, that the Bucs will go from worst to first.
