Tampa Bay Buccaneers
DST - Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Availability
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers D/ST failed to come up with any big plays on Sunday against Quinn Ewers and the Dolphins' offense on Sunday. Tampa Bay fell 20-17 to Miami, its seventh loss in the last eight games.
Fantasy Impact
The Buccaneers allowed only 298 yards of total offense and kept the Dolphins to just 4-of-12 on third-down conversions, but they failed to force a turnover and only sacked Ewers twice in the game. It's the second straight game the Buccaneers have not forced a turnover and they have only four in the last six games after registering 16 in their first 10 games. Tampa Bay has a chance for redemption when it hosts Carolina for the NFC South title on Saturday.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers D/ST managed two sacks with no turnovers in the Bucs' 23-20 loss to Carolina on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
The Bucs defense was quiet in this game aside from two sacks. To their credit, they played decently well against the surging Panthers, but fantasy managers would have loved to see more from them. They should be a good start next week against Quinn Ewers and the Dolphins.
The Buccaneers' D/ST logged one sack and one fumble recovery while allowing 29 points in Thursday night's loss to the Atlanta Falcons.
Fantasy Impact
Tampa Bay's defense carries a lot of fault for the team's upset loss at the hands of the Falcons on Thursday night. They allowed 29 points and were not able to log many big plays to help the offense out. They have a decent schedule moving forward but should not be trusted as a viable fantasy option at this point.
The Buccaneers D/ST allowed 144 passing yards, 139 rushing yards, and 24 points in a 24-20 loss to the Saints.
Fantasy Impact
The Buccaneers' defense tallied three sacks and one interception in the loss. They struggled to handle the running game, as the Saints scored three times on the ground. They will look to bounce back against Atlanta in Week 15.
The Buccaneers D/ST allowed 14 points and added two sacks and two turnovers in Sunday's win over the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact
After three straight games of allowing 28+ points, the Bucs recovered defensively and were able to record an interception and a fumble. The Bucs are a good streaming option for Week 14, as they face the struggling Saints.
