Previewing the Atlanta Falcons' top players on offense and defense when they face off against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are reeling right now. They enter this week's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons down their two best offensive playmakers Chris Godwin and Mike Evans and will need to find a way to replace their production in the aggregate. Despite the losses, morale is high at One Buc, and perhaps it's the return of the throwback creamsicle jerseys.
