Buccaneers vs Cardinals Highlights
Some of the best wide receivers in the game will come face to face this week for Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Arizona Cardinals, as these two teams battle into the dying embers of the season to try and get the job done. The Cardinals lead a hotly contested series by 11-10, but their most recent encounter ended less positively as the Buccs ran out victorious after a last-minute Peyton Barber touchdown.
Prior to that, the Cardinals had won three consecutive games in a row, with two of those victories coming at the location of today’s game, State Farm Stadium. Because both of these teams have such potent offenses, you can anticipate a deluge of points from them this week. The outcome of four of the last five meetings between these two ended with 45 points or more, and the Buccaneers led the way during the 2021 regular season for passing yards gained on average per game.
NFL betting odds might favor a road victory here, but as we know at this stage of the season, everything hinges on who is kept off the IR report and remains active on the roster. The Buccs have room to wiggle with the likes of Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, and now Julio Jones in wideout roles. But having lost him for a number of games early in the season, can the Cardinals make good use of Deandre Hopkins in this Buccaneers vs Cardinals week 16 matchup?
