But since Tom Brady is a fighter, he continues to look forward and find ways to improvise. “We’re gonna have to play the best game of the year,” Tom Brady said. “This is the toughest opponent all year. We’re playing the team that’s very talented they’re making this point for a reason. And we have to do everything to do to get the win.”

Even though the receiving side of the Bucs has been crippled. They are looking forward to getting back RB Leonard Fournette from the injured reserve along with several others on the defensive team. On the other hand, the Eagles are looking forward to retrieving a total of 11 players from the Reserve/COVID-19 list.

And with that, the Eagles will be eager to bounce back from their disappointing 51-26 loss against the Cowboys. While the Bucs will be looking forward to down the Eagles just as they did in Week 6 when the Bucs won by 28-22.
