The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are grappling with a disappointing four-game losing streak, following an initially promising NFL season. Injuries to key players like Mike Evans and Chris Godwin have compounded their struggles, but the team acknowledges that execution in critical moments has been their downfall.

Coach Todd Bowles and quarterback Baker Mayfield have emphasized the need to learn from recent losses, including a narrow defeat to the San Francisco 49ers. As the Bucs head into their bye week, they aim to regroup and address their shortcomings, particularly on defense.
