Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Carolina Panthers – NFL Week 16 Preview & Prediction

Baker Mayfield, Mike Evans, Emeka Egbuka, Todd Bowles and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers face Bryce Young, Tet McMillan, Rico Dowdle and the Carolina Panthers in a game that could wind up deciding the NFC South.
The Mike Evans injury has prevented him from reaching 1,000 yards for the first time in his career, but he would much rathe get another chance at the Playoffs then reach his impressive statistics individual goals.
Dave Canales was viewed to be on the hot seat after last year and entering 2025 but now he likely gets another year with the budding star in Bryce Young, maybe 2 more if they can win the division from the grasp of the Bucs who have gone 1-5 after starting 6-2. Todd Bowles has been under fire the past week for his teams inept play after blowing a 14 point 4th quarter lead in a loss to Kirk Cousins and the Falcons, his squad may very well have to make the playoffs for him to keep his job.
There are simply to many goof players like Tristan Wirfs, Bucky Irving, Cade Otton and of course Lavonte David, Vita Vea, Jamel Dean & Antoine Winfield Jr who have been great players for years on defense. This will be a good game with divisional and seeding implications as the NFC South winner will be no higher than the 3 seed in the NFC for the Playoffs, enjoy this Blitz With Blinder Video hosted by Josh Blinder.
