While we’ve been saying that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ season is basically over, that assessment is also technically premature: the Bucs haven’t been eliminated from the playoffs, yet. And if they win five of their remaining six games, they’ll have a 9-7 record—usually good enough to get into some sort of tiebreaker situation. If they win all six remaining games that’ll almost certainly be the case.
For that to happen, though, a lot of different things have to fall the Bucs’ way. Right now they’re two games out of a wild card spot at 4-6—which sounds doable, with six games remaining.
