The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had a little bit of trouble on Thursday night.
The team lost 24-18 against a high-powered Buffalo Bills offense, and Buffalo took advantage of Tampa Bay’s defense. The Bills converted on a staggering 54% of their third-down scenarios and gave up 427 total yards. The team still managed to be successful in red zone scenarios, but the defense will have to be better in the future with the way that the offense is currently playing.
Nonetheless, Pro Football Focus took to grading every Bucs player on defense and there were a few standouts among the overall lacking performance. Check out PFF’s top defensive grades for Tampa Bay below:
