Bucs vs. Ravens On Monday Night Football

On Monday Night Football, the Buccaneers host the Ravens in Tampa at Raymond James Stadium. Both teams currently have a record of 4-2, but predictions by ESPN analytics favor the Ravens tonight. Ravens were one of the best teams in the regular season last year, but have they picked up that same momentum?

Baker Mayfield

Current Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield has made a name for himself in the NFL. He was the No. 1 overall draft pick in 2018 to the Cleveland Browns. Mayfield signed a three-year contract with the Buccaneers in May worth up to $100 million. Mayfield’s record year was 2023, his first year with the Buc’s. Having thrown for 4,044 yards, 28 touchdowns and 10 interceptions, Mayfield led Tampa Bay to a third straight NFC South title and appearance in the NFC divisional round. Mayfield was voted third in the Comeback player of the year race.
