Following a last-second 25-23 win over the Giants on Sunday, the Buccaneers have to get right back at it on Thursday night. The New England Patriots are in town for the first time in Tom Brady‘s career. When the 2017 schedule came out, this Thursday Night Football matchup was one of the biggest for the Bucs. At 2-1, the team is in pretty good shape record-wise, but could make a monumental statement with a victory over the defending champions.
The Bucs needed a last-second field goal to beat the Giants on Sunday. Of course, had Nick Folk not missed two field goals and an extra point earlier in the game, Tampa Bay would’ve won more comfortably.
