The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are looking to start the season 3-0 for the first time since 2005 with Baker Mayfield leading the charge as their quarterback. The team has won the NFC South for the past three years after starting 2-0 each season. Their upcoming game against the Denver Broncos will see rookie Bo Nix at quarterback, still searching for his first win. The Bucs have a strong record against rookie QBs since Todd Bowles became their defensive coordinator in 2019.
Although Mayfield’s performances may not always be picture-perfect, he has been effective in leading his team to victories. The 29-year-old has significantly improved since taking over from Tom Brady and is aiming for his eighth win in the past nine regular-season games with a stellar passer rating of 129.1. On the other hand, Nix has struggled in his first two starts, failing to throw any touchdown passes while throwing four interceptions.
The clash between the Buccaneers and the Broncos promises to be an exciting matchup with Mayfield looking to continue his impressive form and Nix hoping to turn around his rookie season with a breakthrough win. Fans can expect a competitive game as these two teams battle it out on the field. Stay tuned for more updates on this highly anticipated showdown.
