The Tampa Bay Buccaneers face former offensive coordinator Dave Canales and his Carolina Panthers in Week 13. The Panthers have started to turn things around offensively, but the defense continues to struggle.

Liam Coen and his Bucs offense will show Dave Canales what he's been missing since leaving Tampa Bay. On defense, the group put together an impressive performance against the Giants, and they could parlay that into another strong performance in Week 13.
