The Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-4) and Kansas City Chiefs (7-0) will close out Week 9 with a cross-conference battle on “Monday Night Football.” These two teams have met just 15 times in their histories, with the regular season tied 7-7—though the Chiefs have won the last two meetings—and the Buccaneers winning their only post-season matchup.
The Buccaneers looked like their offense was going to struggle after Pro Bowl wide receiver Chris Godwin was lost for the season and Mike Evans landed on injured reserve, but they managed to put up 26 points last week, albeit in a loss to division-rival Atlanta Falcons.
