The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have had some very big ups and downs in the 2024 NFL season. They beat the Lions but also lost four straight. Something has to give, and Todd Bowles needs to right the ship sooner rather than later.
After Week 11, despite four losses in a row, they still have reasonably good odds.
However, it's unlikely they'll get a bye week if they make the playoffs or the Super Bowl, they could still make it to the dance. According to ESPN, their chances of winning a bye week are less than 1%, and their chances of reaching the Super Bowl are currently 2%.
Meanwhile, their chances of winning the NFC South are at 15% and their overall playoff chance is at 24%. None of these are very cheap, but they have a decent schedule after their bye week that they're doing.
Many adjustments need to be made during the bye week.
