Penix Jr. has been on a tear with back-to-back three touchdown games. There's no doubt he's played better than many thought he would, but I don't love this week's matchup. The Buccaneers defense has been playing lights out this season, both against the run and pass.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Penix Jr.'s hot streak faces Buccaneers' elite defense that shut down Young last week.

Penix Jr. has been on a tear with back-to-back three touchdown games, but the Buccaneers defense has been playing lights out this season against both run and pass. They completely shut down Bryce Young last week, and if they can slow down Bijan Robinson, they slow down the passing game efficiency as well, making this a poor matchup despite Penix Jr.'s recent performance.
