Dating back to December 2020, the Buccaneers have won 10 games in a row. While the first eight victories of this current winning streak were significant in that they led to Tampa Bay’s Super Bowl run and eventual championship victory, the most recent wins in the streak have the team off to a 2-0 start in the 2021 season.

On Sunday, the Bucs will play on the road for the first time this season, taking on 2-0 Rams in Los Angeles. Tampa Bay’s last trip out west to play the Rams was certainly memorable, as the Bucs scored a franchise record 55 points in a 55-40 win. Jameis Winston threw for 385 yards and four touchdowns in the game, while Chris Godwin caught 12 passes for 172 yards and two scores. The defending champions will be looking for similar performances from their guys this time around in hopes of getting to 3-0 ahead of next week’s big Sunday Night Football game in New England.

Let’s take a look at where some Bucs stand in the franchise and league record books, shall we?
