Where the Bucs rank statistically after Week 8

While the Bucs continue to drop in numerous categories, the team remains in the top of the league in red zone defense and points allowed.

After a third straight loss, the statistical prowess of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers continues to snowball downward.

A once-mighty passing offense has regressed significantly and Tampa Bay’s third-down defense remains the worst in the league (by a large margin), but there are still a precious few stats the team remains at or near the top of the league for. As it stands, though, much of that is likely unsustainable and the Bucs will have to truly fix their looming problems if they intend to compete for the NFC South crown.
