Tampa Bay Buccaneers will look to avoid a three-game losing streak when they play their next game of the 2023 NFL season against Buffalo Bills in a Thursday Night Football encounter during Week 8 at Highmark Stadium. With a 3-3 record to their name, the Florida outfit will be desperate to claw back some momentum.
Todd Bowles’s side are out to ensure they do not slip to a trio of defeats on the bounce after losses against the Detroit Lions and Atlanta Falcons, but they might find success harder to come by against a side who proved they were no pushover during an enthralling 2022 campaign.
Sean McDermott will hope to extend a 4-3 record after two losses in the last three games for the Bills, with his side coming up frustratingly short against both Jacksonville Jaguars in London and then New England Patriots last time around. A win against the New York Giants in between has helped balance the books, but there is still work to be done.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers team news
It has been a struggle in attack for the Buccaneers at points this campaign, and it seems easy to suggest plenty rests on Baker Mayfield’s shoulders.
