The Bucs beat Will Levis and the Titans in Week 10, holding Tennessee to just six points in a dominating defensive performance.
On offense, the Bucs weren’t prolific but Rachaad White kept his hot streak going, scoring a touchdown in the win while Mike Evans surpassed 100 yards receiving again. He could’ve had an even better if he didn’t drop a potential touchdown pass.
The Niners put together arguably the most complete performance of Week 10, thrashing the Jaguars 34-3 on the road. While San Francisco got back on track, Christian McCaffrey failed to find the end zone last game.
Brock Purdy should have more success against Tampa than Levis did, but if the Bucs’ defense has returned to form, then this game could be a lot closer than indicated. Still, the 49ers should be able to win and cover.
