Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have been playing in the NFL since they joined the league as an expansion team in 1976 and in that time they’ve won the Super Bowl and racked up the absolute worst win-loss record in NFL history.

Given the Bucs current schedule of opponents, it’s doubtful that this is the season they’re going to turn it all around.

The NFC South is one of the toughest divisions in football, mainly because of the elite QB talent. Drew Brees (Saints), Matt Ryan (Falcons), and Cam Newton (Panthers) are among the league’s best which makes it an uphill battle for the Bucs to win their first divisional title since 2007.

In this betting guide, we’ll take a closer look at the eye-popping numbers WR Mike Evans puts up year after year.

Follow how the Washington Commanders are doing in the NFC South.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers Team History

Tampa Bay Buccaneers NFL Team

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers entered the NFL along with the Seattle Seahawks as part of the 1976 expansion draft. The team had a rough start, losing their first 26 consecutive games. Those challenges persisted and now the Buccaneers have the worst overall win-loss record of any team in the NFL.

However, the Buccaneers have set a few positive records too. They are the only post-merger expansion franchise to win a division title, a playoff game as well as host and play in a conference championship game. They’re also the only team to post a winning season when starting at least ten rookies.

The Bucs played in the NFC Central division until 2001 before being moved to the NFC South.

The Buccaneers won the Super Bowl in 2002 when they crushed the Oakland Raiders by 27 points. Tampa has not made the playoffs since 2007 and have only finished with a winning record three times during this stretch.

The most notable names in franchise history include Warren Sapp, Derrick Brooks, Ronde Barber, and Jon Gruden.
