The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had to postpone their season openere due to hurricane Irma. The game against the Miami Dolphins was originally scheduled to be played last Sunday, in Miami, but had to be moved to November instead.
The hurricane’s effects are devastating, though —that’s much more significant than what happens with the Bucs. Thankfully, recovery efforts are under way.
Still, we do cover the Bucs, so we also have to think of the ways in which this will affect them going forward. Obviously, playing sixteen consecutive games with no real period to rest is suboptimal.
