First off I expect the Bucs to win, obviously.
Now with that out of the way, here’s HOW I expect them to win.
Unlike last season the defense will be healthy, the Bucs will shut down the Cowboys’ offense, getting sacks and turnovers. The Cowboys also don’t have the same number of weapons as they did last season, which will make their job a bit easier.
On offense they’ll have to protect Brady obviously, but running the ball in creative ways will also keep their defense from teeing off. Parsons was defensive rookie of the year for a reason so they’ll have to find ways to shut him down.
PREDICTION
It’s week one so there will be some sloppiness, maybe a turnover that shouldn’t have happened.
Mike Evans will get a touchdown. Julio Jones will make people ask why no one else signed him.
Cowboys fans will complain about a non-call that was correctly not called.
Bucs 24
Cowboys 13
Go Bucs.
(and just because, FUCK THE SAINTS.)
