The Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-0) are at home to host the Philadelphia Eagles (2-0) on one of the two Monday night matchups for Week 3. Both teams are coming into this game undefeated. The Buccaneers have impressed so far without Hall of Fame QB Tom Brady. Despite the 2-0 record, the Eagles have looked sloppy on offense.

Main Storylines to Watch

Are the Buccaneers good or are the Vikings and Bears just bad? Many football experts expected this to be a rebuilding year for the Bucs after Tom Brady retired. Baker Mayfield and this Buccaneers team seem to have ignored those experts. After starting 2-0, this Bucs team has their eyes set on winning their division and not chasing after Caleb Williams or whoever else ends up being a highly drafted QB in the 2024 NFL draft.

Will Jalen Hurts look like 2022 Hurts or 2021 Hurts? After the 2021 season, the Philadelphia Eagles were still wondering what their QB situation would look like for the years to come. Hurts was okay in 2021 and borderline-elite in 2022. He was a major reason this Eagles team made it to the Super Bowl. The passing game thus far looks more like the 2021 version of Hurts, but they recently had a mini-bye week to try and get things back on track.
