The Washington Football Team vs. Buccaneers updates: Live NFL game scores, results for Sunday

After two games on the road, the Washington Football Team are heading back home. Their bye week comes to an end as they meet up with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at 1 p.m. ET at FedEx Field on Sunday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W.'

Washington came up short against the Denver Broncos two weeks ago, falling 17-10. One thing holding Washington back was the mediocre play of QB Taylor Heinicke, who did not have his best game: despite one touchdown, he threw two interceptions. Heinicke ended up with a passer rating of 117.90.

Meanwhile, Tampa Bay came up short against the New Orleans Saints two weeks ago, falling 36-27. Despite the loss, the Buccaneers had strong showings from WR Chris Godwin, who caught eight passes for one TD and 140 yards, and QB Tom Brady, who passed for four TDs and 375 yards on 40 attempts. Near the top of the highlight reel was Brady's 50-yard TD bomb to WR Cyril Grayson in the fourth quarter.

Washington is expected to lose this next one by 9.5. Now might not be the best time to take Washington against the spread since they've let down bettors for the past four consecutive games.

Washington came up short against Tampa Bay when the two teams previously met in January, falling 31-23. The defeat knocked Washington out of the playoffs, so expect them to come at Tampa Bay with a vengeful fire.
