With Jamel Dean sidelined for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers when they face the Kansas City Chiefs, Sean Murphy-Bunting’s performance on Sunday will mean even more than usual.
Murphy-Bunting didn’t have a good game against the Los Angeles Rams as the Bucs fell to 7-4 on the season. He wasn’t alone though either. So in a sense, the entire defense will be the X-Factor in order for Tampa Bay to send Kansas City home with a loss.
Tight end Travis Kelce and wide receiver Tyreek Hill have combined this season for 176 receptions so we know we’ll see plenty of those two.
