The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will head to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome on Sunday to take on the Atlanta Falcons in a divisional battle on Sunday.

The Falcons snapped their two-game losing streak with a gritty 21-14 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars last week. Atlanta is currently just one game below .500 and a win on Sunday could help its slim hopes of making it to the playoffs. Matt Ryan had one of his roughest outings of the season, completing 19/29 passes for just 190 yards and one touchdown. Falcons' Swiss-knife superstar Cordarrelle Patterson came to the rescue, rushing for 108 yards and two touchdowns to help his team get the win.

Much like the Falcons, the Buccaneers had to dig deep against the Indianapolis Colts last week to secure a 38-31 win that saw them improve to 8-3. Quarterback Tom Brady had a rough day at the office, throwing for 226 yards and a touchdown. But the Buccaneers' ground game came through, as running back Leonard Fournette rushed for 100 yards and three touchdowns and also caught Brady's only touchdown pass of the game.

Ahead of their key NFC South divisional battle, here's the injury report and starting lineup for both teams.
