We’re looking at 10 stats to know for Week 3 matchup between the Philadelphia #Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday Night Football

With preparation for the matchup underway, here are ten stats for Week 3.
If the Bears hope to get their first win of the season, here are some players to watch on the Buccaneers.
The Chicago Bears are turning the page after their dreadful 38-20 Week 1 loss to the Green Bay Packers and are preparing for their first road game of the season. The Bears are set to travel south to Florida to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 2.
Tampa Bay isn’t the team they have been the last few years after the retirement of Tom Brady, but they did get off to a strong start to begin the year behind new quarterback Baker Mayfield. The Buccaneers defeated the Minnesota Vikings on the road in a tough 20-17 victory thanks to big defensive plays and timely scoring.
If the Bears want to get a win and stave off the dreaded 0-2 start this weekend, here are a few players we’ll need to keep an eye on:
Tampa Bay will be relying on a few members of its 2022 draft class for production next season.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are entering a new era in 2023, and it isn’t just in the wake of QB Tom Brady’s retirement.
The team has lost few pieces from recent years in free agency, and naturally, those players must be replaced. As a result, there should be a few second-year players from Tampa Bay’s 2022 draft class getting more playing time, but they’ll have to step up if they want to keep a place on the roster.
Here are three of those players that will need to take that next step in 2023:
Head coach Todd Bowles spoke on the team’s plans for Goedeke at the annual NFL meeting in Arizona.
The Bucs’ offensive line is largely a question mark coming into 2023, and coach Todd Bowles discussed one particular unknown on that front at the annual NFL meetings in Arizona.
Bowles was asked about plans for offensive lineman [autotag]Luke Goedeke[/autotag] for the upcoming season, and while Bowles didn’t seem to know what position he would play just yet, he appeared confident that Goedeke would get playing time on the line for 2023. Here is what Bowles said on the Bucs lineman who will be heading into his second year in 2023:
“I thought Luke started out learning and I think he is a very physical football player. I think he is going to help us this year. He is going to play somewhere on the line. We are not quite sure where yet. You really like him at guard, then he showed he can really play tackle at the end of the year so depending on the Draft and how the rest of free agency goes, we will find one of the two spots for him, but it is good to have the versatility.”
Goedeke got playing time in 2022, his rookie year, but much of it was not pretty. He had a rocky start at left guard to start the year, and after he suffered a foot injury in the team’s first game against Carolina, he was subsequently phased out for Bucs lineman Nick Leverett. Goedeke will have ample opportunity to prove himself in 2023, but exactly where on the line he’s set to do that appears to be under consideration for now.
