Tampa Bay has a few intriguing matchups this year. The Bucs will play a first place schedule, which includes some tough matchups in the Baltimore Ravens, the San Francisco 49ers and the Detroit Lions. The Bucs will also play both the NFC East and the AFC West, so they'll face off against some strong teams in the Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys and the Kansas City Chiefs.
