The Bucs are on the brink of playoff elimination, but despite that, the locker room remains strong.
Just a week ago the Tampa Bay Buccaneers controlled their playoff destiny. That changed on Monday night when the Atlanta Falcons defeated the Los Angeles Rams.
The Bucs still need to beat the Carolina Panthers on Saturday, but now they need help. If the Falcons beat the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, it won’t matter Saturday's outcome as the Bucs, Falcons, and Panthers would be tied with the same record.
