It’s been well established at this point in the season that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers feature a trash defense.
As if to belabor the point on Sunday, the Bucs practically gift wrapped the New York Giants a touchdown on their first defensive possession by failing to cover one of the most dangerous playmakers in the game today.
Check out how wide open Saquon Barkley was here on this too-easy touchdown.

That’s incredibly embarrassing. But it’s hardly the first time this season that the Bucs have failed hard on defense. And it won’t be the last.
