The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are set to put their undefeated streak on the line against another 2-0 team on Monday Night Football under the lights.
The vaunted Philadelphia Eagles are in town to play the Bucs for Week 3, and it should be an interesting matchup. The Bucs have beat the Eagles in the last four matchups the two teams have played, and they’ll try their best to keep that streak going against the defending NFC champions.
