Buccaneers to Don Retro Jerseys for NFC South Clash vs. Falcons
Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be throwing it back to the days of creamsicle when they host the Atlanta Falcons in a crucial NFC South matchup on Sunday.
The Buccaneers will be wearing their classic orange and white jerseys, which they wore from 1976 to 1996, for the first time since 2009. The jerseys were a fan favorite during the team's early days, and they have been brought back in recent years for special occasions.
The Buccaneers are hoping that the retro jerseys will give them a boost as they try to improve their 3-5 record and stay in the NFC South race. The Falcons are also 3-5, so this game could be a turning point in the season for both teams.
The Buccaneers have lost three of their last four games, including a disappointing 27-24 loss to the Carolina Panthers last week. The Falcons have also lost three of their last four games, including a 35-17 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals last week.
The Buccaneers will be looking to get their offense going against a Falcons defense that has allowed the most points in the NFL this season. The Falcons will be looking to get their running game going against a Buccaneers defense that has allowed the fewest rushing yards in the NFL this season.
The game is expected to be close, and the retro jerseys could give the Buccaneers a little extra motivation. The Buccaneers are hoping to improve their record to 4-5 and stay in the NFC South race. The Falcons are hoping to improve their record to 4-5 and keep their playoff hopes alive.
