Big Division Game

Yes the last three weeks have been tough as losing sucks, but it's in the past now and this team is 1-3. The good news is the Bucs have an huge division game against the NFC champions in the Carolina Panthers who by the way are 1-3 as well. Both teams are dealing with injuries, inconsistent play, and are looking to jump start their season. Coach Koetter says this game is double important because it's a division game and a chance to be 2-0 in the NFC south via buccaneers.com.

“Exactly like Week One. We would be the only undefeated team in the division if we could get the victory and also having two road wins in the division would be huge. Right now, Atlanta has jumped out, they won at New Orleans and then they beat Carolina. Of course we got the win there, so Atlanta is 2-1 in the division, the rest of the teams are sitting there at 1-3. There’s a long way left, there’s a lot of division games coming up, but a chance for us to be 2-0, it’s like a double win, we talked about it in the meeting this morning.”

Bucs need to bring their best on Monday night as a win would be huge for this team, giving them much needed confidence going into the bye week. Bucs have lost the last 6 meetings vs the Panthers which should be plenty of motivation for this team to come out ready to play their best on Monday night football. No better time than now to put together your best game and get a huge road division win and possibly changing the outlook of the season.
