Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will face Kenny Pickett and the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 6 in a game favored for the Bucs.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 6 as Tom Brady will get to face a familiar foe from his team the New England Patriots where he had immense success over them.
The Buccaneers are coming off a win over the Falcons last week, and they will be heavy favorites against the Steelers in Week 6. The Steelers on the other hand are coming off a disastrous loss to the Buffalo Bills in week 5 as their rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett made his first NFL start.
It will be interesting to see how Pickett will play against a tough Buccaneers defense, but for the Buccaneers, this is a must-win game for them as they continue their push to the playoffs and another NFC South title.
