It's come to this IMO. Winning the Vikings game this Sunday is the only option as far as having the slightest chance of being a winner in the playoffs should they get there. We know the Bucs will have to win three road playoff games to get to the big dance.
So after the bye, with the team being in pretty good shape health wise, there really are no more excuses that would lead me to believe they're good enough to beat another playoff team if they can't beat a team like the Vikings in a situation where this game essentially IS a playoff game?
So we'll see a lot on Sunday. DID the coaches make the right adjustments? DID the players totally buy in and ARE they ready to win in a big game? The playoffs are all big games.
So get it done and renew the hope we had a month ago. Or fade and shift to looking towards 2021. It's really that simple.
