Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2024 Season Recap and 2025-26 Schedule

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had a successful 2024 season, finishing with a 10-7 record and clinching the NFC South division for the fourth consecutive time. This marks their longest division-title streak in franchise history. Led by quarterback Baker Mayfield, who threw for over 4500 yards and had 41 touchdowns, the Buccaneers had impressive wins against playoff teams like the Washington Commanders, Detroit Lions, and the reigning Super Bowl champions, the Philadelphia Eagles.

Despite some ups and downs throughout the season, including a four-game losing streak followed by a four-game winning streak, the Buccaneers were unable to advance past the wildcard round of the playoffs, losing to the Washington Commanders. The team’s offense was ranked 3rd in the league, but their defense struggled, ranking 18th overall. With some adjustments to their defensive lineup, the Buccaneers have the potential to make a deeper playoff run in the upcoming season.

Looking ahead to the 2025-26 season, the Buccaneers have a challenging schedule of away games against teams like the Atlanta Falcons, Buffalo Bills, and Los Angeles Rams. Their home games will feature matchups against the Arizona Cardinals, New England Patriots, and Philadelphia Eagles, among others. All home games will be played at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida.

With Mayfield’s exceptional performance and the potential for defensive improvements, the Buccaneers are poised for another successful season as they aim to make a deeper playoff run and potentially secure another division title.
