5. It’s prediction time. What’s the outcome of Sunday’s game, including the score?

Staying true to my full NFC South predictions and the most recent episode of the Walking The Plank Podcast where my co-expert David Harrison and I break down the match-up, I’m taking the Buccaneers 34-13. The Bears are walking into a buzz saw. The Buccaneers have been chomping at the bit for September 10, just like every other team, then had it ripped out from under them.

There is a fan movement happening in Tampa that is unlike anything we’ve ever seen before. Even during the late 90’s-early 2000’s when this team was a consistent contender, there was nothing like this. The stadium will be rocking with rabid fans, ready to put Hurricane Irma in the rearview mirror and finally get their Bucs back. The team will feed off that energy and make it a long day for Glennon and the Bears.

Bucs 34, Bears 13
