The Panthers get set to take on the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Sunday’s matchup between the Carolina Panthers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers features two teams on the opposite end of the spectrum. At 5-2, Carolina looks to inch closer to the top of the division as only the New Orleans Saints stand in their way. On the other side, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have had a rough start to the season so far. Sitting at 3-4 on the year, they sit in the middle of the NFC South and are experiencing troubles at the quarterback position.

Carolina leads the all-time series 22-13, with the last game being a win for the Panthers. They won by a 22-10 score on Christmas Eve, giving the Panthers further momentum heading into the playoffs. The last time the Buccaneers won a game in the series was on New Year’s Day 2017. They defeated the Panthers by a narrow 17-16 margin. With that being said, it is safe to say the Panthers have handled this series easily.

Without further ado, we make three bold predictions for the Panthers heading into Sunday’s divisional matchup.
