Stays on Bucs’ heels.
Dang, had the Dixie Chicks lost on Sunday night, the Bucs would have been the lone team in the NFC South with a win.
The slimy Saints (at home) and the Stinking Panthers (on the road) each lost (again) on Sunday to the 49ers and Cardinals, respectively. Both games were decided by five points.
Last night, the Dixie Chicks did a good job holding down Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy in a convincing 22-6 road win.
Former Bucs tackle Justin Skule didn’t have the greatest night trying to hold back the Dixie Chicks’ pass rush as Atlanta got McCarthy on the ground six times. Skule left the game in the second with a concussion.
Bijan Robinson had 143 yards rushing.
So the Bucs can keep a one-game lead in the NFC South with a win over Houston tonight. If the Bucs lose, they are tied with the Dixie Chicks atop the NFC South.
The slimy Saints and Stinking Panthers are still searching for their first win of the season.
