This matchup will kick off a Saturday NFL doubleheader, and the stakes could not be higher. Not only will the winner of this game potentially take the NFC South, but they will also secure the final playoff spot.

This game is essentially a playoff matchup between the Bucs and Panthers. The winner moves on; the loser is sent home.

However, with the Atlanta Falcons winning in Week 18, there’s a scenario in which the Bucs could win on Saturday and still miss the playoffs. For that to happen, the Falcons would need to beat the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. That outcome would also mean the Panthers could lose on Saturday yet still claim the NFC South.

Tampa Bay has been underwhelming this season, while Carolina has been a pleasant surprise. The Bucs are looking to reach the playoffs for the fourth consecutive season, while the Panthers are attempting to make the postseason for the first time since 2017.
