Todd Bowles can't afford to overthink a clear path to victory for Buccaneers in Week 17

All of the marbles are essentially on the table for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday.

While they can't pull ahead of the Carolina Panthers, the game in Miami is a must-win in order to avoid a colossal and historic collapse. The Bucs have lost six of the last seven since the bye week, and horror and bitterness are on the horizon. If the Bucs don't shape up quickly, Cancun tickets will be purchased this time next week.

Thankfully, Tampa Bay has a straightforward task at hand: win on Sunday. You'd think this would be fairly easy for a team coming off four straight NFC South titles, but wins have been hard to come by recently.
