The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had a 10-point lead and a chance to win it late. They walked away with another loss. After Cleveland’s 23-19 win, the Bucs are 0-2 with growing questions surrounding Baker Mayfield, Todd Bowles and an offense that keeps leaving points on the field.
Cannon Fire Podcast breaks down the costly penalties, red-zone failures and fourth-quarter finish that let another winnable game slip away. Tampa Bay outgained Cleveland 313-267 but scored a touchdown on just one of four red-zone trips. Bucky Irving’s 89 rushing yards and Chase McLaughlin’s four field goals weren’t enough to overcome the missed opportunities.
We examine Mayfield’s performance, the defense’s inability to get the decisive stop and what needs to change to get the Buccaneers back on track.
