TAMPA, Fla. — Now that they have clinched the NFC South and the accompanying postseason berth, the Bucs’ regular-season finale Sunday in Atlanta doesn’t necessarily qualify as must-see TV.
But a few factors make it worth watching. For one, coach Todd Bowles reiterated Wednesday that Tom Brady and the other healthy first-teamers will start (even if they don’t finish). Additionally, a collective desire exists to preserve the mojo harnessed during the team’s recent two-game win streak.
“I think you’ve got to build momentum going into the playoffs,” cornerback Carlton Davis said.
