Another winnable game is against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Nov. 24 in Atlanta.

The Atlanta Falcons have won five straight games against the Bucs and lead the overall series 27-24. Much like the series with the Panthers, the Matt Ryan era has been kind when it comes to victories over the Bucs.

Outside of a three-game losing streak between Nov. 1, 2015, to Sep. 11, 2016, Tamp Bay has found very little success against Atlanta. Since 2008, the Falcons are 15-7 against the Bucs.

Along with the recent success the Falcons have had against the Bucs, Tampa Bay has been on a downward spiral ever since their 55-40 upset of the defending NFC Champion Rams at the Los Angeles Coliseum. They have lost four straight games and Jameis Winston continues to be a turnover machine.

Much like the Falcons, Tampa’s defense is complete trash. They are giving up 31.5 points per game, which is actually higher than the Falcon’s average of 31.3 points per game given up. This is great news for the Falcons receiving corp. This matchup, as well as the meeting between the two on Dec. 29, could be high scoring affairs similar to a Big 12 conference game.
