You probably remember how the 2025 season ended for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
After an impressive 6-2 start, Baker Mayfield’s club finished the year 8-9 following a rough and tumble 2-7 stretch to close the campaign and barely miss the postseason even though they still beat their NFC South rival and eventual playoff team Carolina Panthers in Week 18.
Midway through the painful collapse, head coach Todd Bowles told the team “It’s inexcusable…it was in-f—ing-excusable, and there’s no f—ing answer for it. No excuse for it. That’s what you tell them in the locker room. Look in the f—ing mirror.”
Tough words and hopefully the last time Bowles will have to utter them.
Now that the 2026 NFL schedule has officially dropped, we know who the Bucs will face (and when) this year on their road to redemption.
Notable opponents set to visit them at their home Raymond James Stadium come fall include Kyler Murray’s Minnesota Vikings (Sept. 27), Jordan Love’s Green Bay Packers (Oct. 4), T.J. Watt’s Pittsburgh Steelers (Oct. 18), Justin Herbert’s Los Angeles Chargers (Dec. 6) and Matthew Stafford’s Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, Jan. 3 in the last home game of the season.
They’ll also go head-to-head with Bryce Young’s Carolina Panthers on Monday, Nov. 30 in what should surely be a tense rematch after their down-to-the-wire season finale.
And, even though they’ve had a rough offseason — Mike Evans bolted and Lavonte David retired — general manager Jason Licht has stayed busy to make sure Bowles has the best team possible to put on the field this year.
Notable signings include linebacker Alex Anzalone, tight end Cade Otten, running back Kenneth Gainwell, defensive tackle A’Shawn Robinson and linebacker Al-Quadin Muhammad.
They join No. 15 pick Rueben Bain Jr. and No. 46 Josiah Trotter as well as returning standouts like play-caller Mayfield, safety Antoine Winfield Jr., offensive tackle Tristan Wirfs, wideout Chris Godwin Jr. and defensive tackle Vita Vea.
All that’s missing now is you.
