On Monday night, the 1-3 Tampa Bay Buccaneers take on the 1-3 Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina. It will be the 32nd meeting between the two teams in the regular season, with the Bucs trying to remain undefeated in division play in 2016 (more on the Bucs-Panthers series history).
Like the Buccaneers, the three-time defending division champion Panthers are trying to catch up to the 3-1 Falcons. To set the division standings more to their own liking, the Bucs will need to keep the Panthers from finding that playmaking touch that made them the NFL's leaders in forcing turnovers last year.
