Bucs favored by 6 but this bring memories back from 2008 when all Gruden and the Bucs had to do was beat the lowly raiders to get in. 

we lost, Gruden was fired

i can see the same happening Sunday. 

Panthers come to play spoiler

Panthers 27

bucs 23

maybe I get more confidence throughout the week but beating them 21-18 doesn’t give me confidence 

also, the team seemed to regress yesterday with the miracle potion wearing off. We are closer to the team that barely beat them then we are the team that smashed greenbay and Jacksonville

let's say hypothetically the Bucs beat the Saints 30-20, offense is rolling.  Were you suggesting to rest the offense in week 18 against Carolina?  Killing momentum?

assuming we aren't completely inept and can somehow beat the 2-14 Panthers with our playoff lives on the line, maybe this loss can be a blessing by keeping the guys playing and fresh

5 out of 6 wins would still be nice momentum but the hope is our offense will be closer to the 30 point mark and not in the teens

looks like Kyle Trask may get the start this week.  that's alot of pressure for the guy.  here's hoping he can lead the team to victory

Hope White can get his 85 yards Sunday to eclipse the 1k yard mark. And Godwin can get about 30 yards as well. We'd have 2 WR's over 1,000 yards and a 1,000 rushing yards in a single season. Pretty cool accomplishment for any OC.

would actually be a great story and set up a really interesting question for the playoffs and offseason

It would be a cool set of stats.

looks like all are good to go Sunday.

let's see what this team is made of

 

talent wise, and what's at stake, we should win 31-10

but it is the NFL so i would be ok with a 24-14 unimpressive win 

a loss would totally be unacceptable. 

Bucs record against losing teams - 5-1 (lone loss to Atlanta at RJS)

Brice Young total touchdowns - 11.  10 INTs

team totals 

Carolina - 3100 receiving yards, 1,600 rushing yards 

Bucs - 3,900 receiving yards, 1,400 rushing yards 

PPG - Bucs 21 versus Carolina 15

Ideally this game would start in a way that the Bucs have yet to show they can play and that is with a first drive TD and complementary stifling defense, meaning 3 and out not hold them to a FG after 60 yards.  Take the game right out of the Panthers, sort of what they Sainst did to us.

 

I just dont think we have that. Bowles seems to lay back a lot in the first series and Mayfield seems to need the game to be on the line . . for the most part.
