Rookie WR Emeka Egbuka on the state of the Buccaneers: "We are going to get in the building and hash out what needs to be hashed out & fix all of the problems that there are. Because there are problems." 😳 (via @thechrismathis)

The Panthers are 2nd in the NFC South with the same record as the first-place Bucs (7-7). Their next three opponents: 🔹 vs. Buccaneers 🔹 vs. Seahawks 🔹 @ Buccaneers Ironically, these two stand between them and their first playoff berth since 2017:

We lost to the Rams, who lost to the Panthers, who lost to the Saints, so OBVIOUSLY the Saints are the front runners.

Wild but true: "Backup" RB Kenneth Gainwell leads all Steelers pass-catchers in receptions this season (57). RB1 SZN 📈

A potential firing of Bengals HC Zac Taylor, DC Al Golden, and GM Duke Tobin "sounds very unlikely right now," per @pauldehnerjr Worth noting: Joe Burrow expressed “a lot of confidence” in the coaching staff and front office earlier this week. Cincinnati is 4-10 on the season.

Congrats on advancing to the next round of the fantasy playoffs if you had these players 🤯

From 0-3 & fighting for their playoff lives every week to 9-5 while playing one of the most difficult schedules in the entire NFL. Don’t sleep on Houston.

TE Trey McBride among pass-catchers through Week 15: ♦️ 136 targets (2nd) ♦️ 105 receptions (1st) ♦️ 1,071 yards (6th) ♦️ 10 touchdowns (3rd) He’s separated himself from the TE2 by nearly 100 total PPR points and 5 PPG. Absolute cheat code. 👀 (h/t @Kyle_Odegard)
