Game Day - Week 6

Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Philadelphia Eagles

Thursday, 8:20 pm EST

Players to watch:

Philadelphia Eagles:

Jalen Hurts - Hurts did not have the best performance during his previous prime time game on Monday Night Football. I’ll be paying extra attention to how he plays on the national stage tonight.

Zach Ertz - With Dallas Goedert on the COVID-19 list, we can expect to see an expanded role for veteran TE Zach Ertz. As discussed previously, the Bucs’ defense is much more susceptible to the pass than the run. He could play a key role in the Eagles ability to move down field.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers:

Tom Brady - Brady is dealing with a thumb injury that didn’t seem to impact him at all in his previous matchup, throwing for 5 TDs. But nevertheless something to keep an eye on in addition to observing how he audibles at the line to combat this defense.

Leonard Fournette - I expect the Bucs to come out running in this one and Fournette is their lead back. I think he has a lot of usage early and could find his way into the end zone at least once tonight.
