On Sunday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will head to Atlanta to play in the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium for the first time. The Buccaneers and Falcons will be meeting for the 48th time, with Atlanta seeking to tie the series up for the 12th time (more on the Bucs-Falcons series history). The Buccaneers bring a two-game winning streak into the contest but the Falcons have won three of their last four, including an impressive victory in Seattle this past Monday night.
To get their first division win of the season, the Buccaneers will need to slow down a pass-rush that ranks fourth in the NFL in sacks, and somehow figure out how to contain a diverse set of weapons surrounding the NFL's reigning MVP, Matt Ryan.
