Our analysts and experts break down the most important angles of this game.

Here's an excerpt, but you can read the full thing here.

While the Buccaneers were able to contain the San Francisco backfield in their Week 1 loss, they face a significant running back talent increase in Carolina.

Christian McCaffrey, the center of the Carolina offensive attack, has dominated the Buccaneers in their four meetings. And last season, the Bucs ranked 30th in Football Outsiders’ run defense DVOA while also finishing tied for most receiving touchdowns allowed to running backs (six).
