The Buccaneers hadn’t lost a single game by more than 8 points all season this year, before getting blown out 41-0 against a sub .500 Saints team last week. They quit down the stretch last season and while I think it’s unlikely that’s happening again under disciplinarian Greg Schiano, it’s definitely evident that this is a streaky team. After starting 1-3, the Buccaneers won 5 of 6, before now losing 4 straight and it’s very possible they continue that streak all the way to 6-10.
