Philadelphia Eagles vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers Prediction: Can Baker Mayfield, Bucs Pull Wild Card Round Upset?
This is a look ahead spot to the last game of wildcard weekend, but nothing is going to change my mind about this one (barring some catastrophic injury), so we might as well lock it in now. The Philadelphia Eagles (11-6) are on the road for a visit with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (9-7) as these squads will clash at Raymond James Arena in Tampa, Florida Monday night.

Philadelphia Eagles vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers Prediction
This is all about momentum, the Buccaneers have a ton of it, and Philly appears to be dead in the water. There is so much pressure on Sirianni and Hurts in this one, the way that squad has played over the last two months has looked very bad. They have lost five of their last six games, and the squad that was in the Super Bowl just 11 months ago seems to not exist at the current time. AJ Brown and Devonta Smith are banged up, the defense has been getting lit up and morale is down.
On the flip side, this is Baker's team. The first year QB and OC duo has found a spark down the stretch, the Bucs have played much better, and are far improved from the squad that lost by two scores to Philly Week 3. I love that this is a home game for the Bucs, I think it just adds to that pressure for an Eagles squad that is already reeling. Baker has been in the league for some time now and is getting his shot in the playoffs, I like him to make some noise and put his body on the line per usual.
