The veteran receiver hasn’t seen the field since Week 7.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be traveling to New York this week to take on the Giants. At 4-6, the Bucs can’t risk dropping another game especially against New York and the way they’ve played as of late it’s certainly a possibility.

But they could be getting some help this week to make sure that doesn’t happen.

Veteran wide receiver Mike Evans was practicing in limited fashion Wednesday, which was a positive sign as he has been out with a hamstring injury since Week 7’s Monday night debacle at home....

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have wrapped up their bye week with some added preparation as they head to New York this week to take on the Giants. But at 4-6, Tampa Bay is looking to add to the win column against a team with their own issues. Do oddsmakers give the Bucs any kind of respect this week?

Per to FanDuel, Tampa Bay is a 5.5-point favorite as the visiting team.

Point spread: Bucs -5.5
Point total: 41.5

Let’s be honest, the Cowboys are in shambles. And the Texans are the better team in the state of Texans. Easy pickins tonight.

Texans 27, Cowboys 10

Confidence in the team is still low.

Tampa Bay has not had a good string of games as of late stemming from poor defensive performances resulting in a 4-6 record after starting out 4-2.

Head coach Todd Bowles is in charge of the defense and that unit has unfortunately underperformed all season long regardless of injuries. Bowles has stated countless times the poor start...

PICK

Lines are set for Tampa Bay’s division rivals.

The Buccaneers — and the Panthers as well — are on their byes this week and both teams have arrived to this point in different ways with the Bucs forgetting how to win and the Panthers discovering how to win. But we won’t go there, at least not yet.

But two other teams from the NFC South have important games this week so we’ll take a look at the odds for their respective matchups.

The 3-7 New Orleans Saints will play host to the 2-7 Cleveland Browns in a game that will...

Let’s react to another tough loss

The Buccaneers suffered yet another gut wrenching loss, this time to the San Francisco 49ers. Tampa Bay had another close defeat in a game where they had many opportunities to upset the defending NFC champions.

They have now lost four straight games and find themselves 4-6 at the bye week.

Mayfield Magic

Late in the game, the Bucs were in a must have situation on fourth down and things were looking bleak. Quarterback Baker Mayfield was pressured Niners defensive end Nick Bosa when he somehow was able to hold him off and fire...

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers fell to the San Francisco 49ers, 23-20. Tampa Bay enters their Bye Week at 4-6, yet owns the league’s lowest remaining strength of schedule (.323).

- The Buccaneers generated 110 rushing yards on the day across 27 carries, good for their seventh 100-yard rushing performance this season and their sixth in the last seven games. Tampa Bay’s seven games with 100+ rushing yards this season is its most since recording eight such performances during the 2021 season. Through Sunday’s 1:00 p.m. slate of games, Tampa Bay ranks seventh in the NFL in rushing yards (1,253) and...

Bucs Nation’s thread for MNF.

The Miami Dolphins are in Los Angeles to take on the Rams on Monday Night Football. The Rams are favored by 2.5 at home with the over/under set at 48.5. You can see all of the odds and props for tonight’s games at FanDuel.

PICKS

Miami has dealt with a lot this season and even with Tua back that obviously doesn’t help out the defense. The Rams have gotten hot as of late and being at home it’s hard to go against them tonight.

Rams 27, Dolphins 20

The free fall continues.

If any of you seriously believed that the Buccaneers defense was actually going to do its job after the offense tied the game inside the 2-minute warning, I want to buy whatever hopium you’re huffing.

Sunday’s 23-20 loss to the San Francisco 49ers just produced more of what we’ve largely seen in the last 6 weeks — an ill-prepared defense and cowardly game management decisions that sink an otherwise well-functioning offense.

What’s even more sad is that it’s not even a new issue, as one might recall this team went through the exact same arc last...
